How can we trust him now with the Iran deal? Accelerating the so-called agreement with Iran is only a diversion from the mismanagement of ObamaCare, which suddenly is no longer called “ObamaCare” in order not to damage the name of our president, in order to remove this problem from the news headlines. 
 
I believe that Israel can no longer count on our president to save it if Iran keeps up its threat to erase Israel. I can hardly imagine that he ever had an honest intention of protecting Israel if the Iranians would attack it. From the beginning, Obama’s intention or that of the liberals who are surrounding him is to try to weave the fabric of America in a way to weaken America, so as to no longer be a super power. We already abandoned our role as protectors and providers of support to our allies in Europe and the world.
 
We forgot that the Ayatollah of Iran was the one who overthrew the Shah and instituted a theocratic dictatorship and who, on October 23, 1983, through Iran’s proxy, the Hezbollah, bombed the US Marine barracks and the French military forces in Beirut, who were members of the Multinational Force in Lebanon, killing 241 American soldiers and 58 French soldiers. The Israelis and the Arabs in the Middle East are right not to trust the Iranians, and to insist on a better deal. The Americans have an even greater reason not to trust Iran with their regime, which seems not to have any human feelings. Should we trust them? Should we trust Valerie Jarrett, Senior Adviser to President Obama? Should we wait and see? What we will see is “Cheat, retreat and repeat.” We know this from the past with Saddam Hussein. Are we not listening to our past experiences? Are we not listening to the parents of the Marines who lost their lives in Beirut?
 
This is bad news, not only for us, but also for the Iranians who tried a few times to rally against the Ayatollah and hoped for democracy, expecting our help which never came, not even a word from our president. This deal with the Iranians reinforced the theocratic government which for the first time felt the effect of the bite of the sanctions which the Congress passed.
 
As for the Europeans who rushed to make a quick deal without any solid base, they should remember that the fear Israel and the Jews have came from Europe with their handling of the Jews and the creation of the macabre holocaust which disgraced the European civilization.
 
We should not count on the Israelis to abstain from destroying the entire atomic installation in Iran like they did silently with Iraq’s and with Syria’s atomic installations. It will be too late. I believe that President Obama will have to stop the negotiations with the Palestinians and Israel for at least until the Israeli figure out what to do with Iran. Their first duty is to protect the Israeli population and not waste their energy and their time in negotiations with Abbas as no one knows how the future will be.
