They Still Crave the Power and the Control

The moment that a Jew says to you if you're “serious” about something ... you don't just stand there and hear what else he has to say; you do the equivalent of spit in his face, turn around and walk away. And this is what the Obama administration will most probably do upon reading a piece of trash spewed by David B. Rivkin Jr. and Lee A. Casey.

They spewed the article: “Congress Can Play a Vital Role in the Iran Talks” which also comes under the subtitle: “If the administration forges ahead alone, it risks reaching an unworkable nuclear deal.” It was published in the Wall Street Journal on March 6, 2014. Even though the negotiations with Iran are conducted the way that negotiations have been conducted since the inception of the American Republic, those two characters are telling the administration to change the pattern, emasculate itself and hand the negotiations to the Congress and to Israel. Why is that? To show how serious the Obama administration is.

So they tell what should be in the final deal with Iran, then say: “The Obama administration is not headed down this path.” Why is that? Because the deal remains secret, they say. Hey guys, there is no deal yet but the negotiations are conducted quietly, which is how negotiations are always conducted. No, no, they say, they meant to say that the interim – not the final – agreement legitimizes Tehran's uranium enrichment. Yes, and that is Iran's right which is something that will not stand in the way of making sure Iran's program remains for peaceful purposes only.

Yes, we understand that, they say, but look what is happening. The administration no longer has the “military option” on the table. What? Are you mad? The negotiators are sitting around the negotiating table not a military table. Only gun toting thugs go to a negotiating table carrying guns in their holsters. Okay, okay, we hear you, they say. But look what else the administration has done; it opposes “additional standby economic sanctions if the negotiations fail.” Well, let me tell you something, you little ignoramuses out of the Stone Age. Civilized people cross a bridge when they come to it. If you try to cross a bridge before you get to it, or if the bridge isn't there to begin with, you cause yourself serious damage. This has been the history of the Jews throughout time, and this administration will not make it the history of America. Get that through you thick skulls, dumbos.

Well, then, we have a suggestion, they say. What's that? Get the Congress and the allies to the negotiating table with you, they propose. Well, the allies are there, and the Congress is advised as to what's happening, which is the way that things have been done for nearly two and a half centuries. Now, if some Congressman wants to take a leave of absence and join the negotiating team, we would certainly want to accommodate him or her, was the response. Okay, okay, we hear you, they say, but you don't have all the allies at the table. Well, it has been the (P5+1) from the beginning and that's where it's at now. No, no, that's not enough, they say.

Not enough? Why? Because Israel, we mean Israel should also be there at the table. Why is that? Because America has no credibility abroad and to restore its “tattered credibility” it must be seen to follow Israel's commands. What an intriguing suggestion! To respond to it, let me tell you something. You know that bridge you wanted to cross before you got to it? Go to it now, and whether it is there or it isn't, jump into the lake below and make sure not to surface till you find yourself having a good time skating on a rink in a hell that is freezing over.

Well, since you're getting nasty with us, here is our way to respond to your nastiness. We are lawyers and we know how to screw around with the law. You know those sanctions which are currently in place against Iran? Even if you complete the negotiations and have a final agreement, they cannot be swept aside or waived by the President. This will give Iran the excuse to reject the agreement, and we'll all be back to square one again.

The way to fix that is to turn the regime of sanctions into a treaty which will make it the “supreme law of the land” and bring it under the control of the Congress. This done, the treaty can then be nullified by Congress if and when we, and people like us decide it's okay to do so. And for good measure, you register the whole thing with the Security Council of the United Nations which will make Iran's compliance with the agreement not only an American law but also an international law. And this is necessary because if America tells Israel to go to hell someday, Israel will have a say in the matter by the fact that what binds Iran is an international law.

And since the administration will not accept any of this because it will see it as tantamount to emasculating itself, “there are other ways for Congress to make its voice heard” which means perform the emasculating operation. Here it is: “Congress should pass 'sense' of the Senate and House resolutions...” turning the thing into a treaty that will be under the control of the Congress therefore the control of AIPAC and Israel. The Senate can also have “observers” at the table, and these observers will be handpicked by AIPAC if not Netanyahu himself. America will thus regain its credibility.

And while we're at it, get the Iranians to admit publicly to something they did not do, and apologize for it. An that is, they must say it was never all those Jews and their gentile “running dog” mouthpieces in America and Europe who have been barking “destroy Iran, destroy Iran,” it was some obscure Iranian national we still cannot identify that said “destroy Israel.” And for this, we sincerely apologize and beg for forgiveness.

Otherwise America must put the military option on the table, say Rivkin and Casey. And since none of the absurdities they have been asking for will materialize, they want America to exercise the military option and destroy Iran the way they have been saying it should be done all along.
