Had the lies of Israel and the American pro-Likud gang of war and evil been made of water, the world would have witnessed a deluge greater than that seen by Noah. The second round of negotiations in Geneva keeps stumbling then rising, only to stumble again. The Iranian side is now carrying out negotiations with Catherine Ashton, the High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, in her capacity as the representative of the five permanent state members in the Security Council in addition to Germany. These negotiations are surrounded by a sea of lies with well-known sources and causes. - The impostor Benjamin Netanyahu told a German magazine that Iran possesses enough enriched uranium to produce a nuclear bomb within weeks. International experts, mostly Americans, responded to his claims by saying that this is "absolute nonsense." - Yaakov Amidror, who recently resigned from his post as national security consultant in Israel, said that Netanyahu is bracing to launch a military strike against Iran now that the USA is no longer likely to launch such strike. First of all, I don't believe that Israel is capable of launching an effective military strike against Iran. Second, why would the USA strike Iran while the latter poses no threat to it neither today nor in the future? - Michael Oren, the former Israeli ambassador to Washington, is an Israeli-American who said that Netanyahu is trying to shield Israel against the threat to its very existence. The only truth in this context is that Israel possesses a nuclear arsenal and represents a threat to the existence of every country in the Middle East; while Iran possesses no nuclear weapons and therefore poses no threat to anyone. Oren told one additional useless lie. He claimed that Israeli experts and intelligence officers revealed the existence of an Iranian nuclear program. The truth however is that Iranian opposition parties revealed the existence of this Iranian program. Oren himself said nothing to deny that. The other truth is that the USA itself offered Iran a nuclear reactor in the last years of the Shah's era as part of the "atom for peace" project and with the aim of conducting medical experiments. The reactor operates through twenty percent enriched uranium (while the uranium used to make a bomb must have a level of enrichment above ninety percent.) - The pro-Likud Weekly Standard magazine claimed that the American Administration "appointed" or contracted Israel to carry out a military strike against the Iranian nuclear facilities. The same column quoted statements that Gamal Abdul Nasser had allegedly made to the Americans. I did not understand what all this has to do with the negotiations with Iran. The piece then recalled that warmonger Senator John Mc Cain turned the lyrics of "Barbara Ann" by the Beach Boys to "Bomb Iran." Israel's supporters want "their country" to strike Iran on behalf of Israel even if this should result in a regional war primarily affecting the American interests. But when it comes to telling lies, Netanyahu is the best. He tried, during interviews that he had on American televisions, to mobilize the public opinion against the Obama administration. He claimed that the American president offered "a lot" to Iran knowing that all what the US offered was to release the billions of Iranian assets frozen in banks in return of temporarily halting the Iranian nuclear program. It seems that Netanyahu failed to attract the American public opinion. Several opinion polls have been conducted and the last one I read was carried by the Washington Post and the ABC network. This poll showed that 64 percent of the Americans oppose an American strike against Iran and that only 30 percent support such a strike. Once again, a lie is being spread indicating that Saudi Arabia and Israel are both allied against Iran. Saudi Arabia does have its reasons to confront the Persian greed in the region. However, it would never ally itself or cooperate with Israel. There is no communication of any sort between the two sides. Anyone who says otherwise is a professional liar. [email protected]
