In the past months and years, there have been many statements and discussions about the negotiations of Iran’s Nuclear Program. There has been no clearer statement on the issue than Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s comments in an interview with Steve Forbes, “I think if the deal goes through, were in danger of war; might be the worst kind of war that we can imagine.” The additional impending danger involved in agreement with Iran is that it simply lifts in 10 years. What does that mean? The Prime Minister continued, “The greatest danger in this deal is not that Iran will violate the agreement. The fact is that within ten years Iran won’t have to violate anything; it can just walk into the bombs, into many bombs.” It can clearly be seen that this agreement spells bad news for not just Israel, but for the world. The continued warning that is being sounded is the mirror image of events that unfolded through the leadership of Adolf Hitler in the 1930’s and the Holocaust is taking shape in the events of our world today. Steve Forbes addresses this sobering reality by asking if what we are seeing today is like the 1930’s. Prime Minister Netanyahu responded by saying, “No, it’s worse, because we have the example of the 1930s, which wasn’t available then.”
In May 2013, the President spoke to an audience of college students in Israel. He expressed his own urgency regarding this matter. “There is no question that the only path to peace is through negotiations; which is why, despite the criticism that we’ve received, the United States will oppose unilateral efforts to bypass negotiations through the United Nations. It has to be done by the parties.” There is an insistent push to bring any matter regarding Israel to the United Nations. The question is why? Think of it this way: if there are a group of 10 people, and 8 will always vote in a certain direction, all you have to do is take a particular matter to this group. If one’s views are the same as the 8 there is no question as to what the outcome will be. This can be considered an “unstoppable voting block”. There are repeated outcomes of anti-Israel resolutions that easily pass through the United Nations because of an unstoppable voting block. Continue Reading
