Israel depends on the US to fund its wars and Netanyahu does not have George W who turned his back on war activity Israeli leaders decided to do. Perhaps it would be a good time to try peaceful ways.

The U.S. will be blamed for tanking the deal and Russia, Europe and China will eventually lift their sanctions anyways.

Americans sanctions alone will be completely ineffective.

Then the GOP will want to bomb Iran.

The problem is that by the time US is able to start bombing Iran - most of the infrastructure would be defended by Surface to Air missile platforms - who if rumored is some of the best available on the open market - Russia have stated a few times now they want to sell Iran the SA300 missile system - who is top of the line and at least as good as the best counter the US have to offer to its allies around the world.. And if they are able to train properly on the systems - it would be some challenge for the aircrafts flying in to bomb facilities in Iran leaving in one piece... Iran is a whole different beast than Iraq was - and everyone who have followed this a while know it...

But that is not the same as the war-mongers in the Grand Old Party think it would matter Mitch - after all - it is not like THEY would be the one take the brunt being shot down - and end up as POWs...

The line has been drawn in the sand, the Rubicon has been crossed! If the US does not ratify and become part of this international deal, the whole possibility of further sanctions would fall apart, and both Israel and the US would become real international pariahs, isolated to the extreme. Let's just hope and pray that President Obama's veto is NOT overridden.

makes me sick to think about the out or control and immoral Congress that is now seated.
