Netanyahu: Deal will ‘guarantee’ that Iran gets nuclear weapons

Nagasaki Nuclear Explosion (1945)

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is warned the US Congress that the current deal being negotiated with Iran will guarantee that Iran will acquire/develop nuclear weapons:

March 3, 2015

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said negotiations underway between the United States and Iran would “guarantee” that Tehran would get nuclear weapons, a threat not only to the Middle East but to the world.

In an appearance before the U.S. Congress that has drawn controversy, Netanyahu stressed to lawmakers the grave danger that a nuclear Iran poses to his country.

“If the deal now being negotiated is accepted by Iran, that deal will not prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons – it will all but guarantee that Iran will get those nuclear weapons – lots of them,” he said.

Iran is sponsoring terrorism around the world, Netanyahu said, adding that Tehran’s regime was “as radical as ever,” could not be trusted and the deal being worked out with the United States would not block Iran’s way to a bomb “but paves its way to a bomb.”

“We’ve been told that no deal is better than a bad deal. Well this is a bad deal, a very bad deal,” he said. “We’re better off without it.”

Netanyahu was given a rousing standing ovation as he arrived on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives Tuesday. http://www.voanews.com/content/israeli-prime-minister-to-make-case-against-irans-nuclear-ambitions-to-congress/2665829.html

The Israeli prime minister has warned that a deal under discussion on Iran’s nuclear programme could “pave its way to the bomb”, rather than block it.

In a speech to US Congress punctuated by standing ovations, Benjamin Netanyahu depicted Iran as a “threat to the entire world”.

Talks on Iran’s nuclear programme are nearing a critical late-March deadline for an outline agreement to be reached. …

Netanyahu insisted the Israel-US relationship “must remain above politics” and that he was “grateful for the support of the American people”.

But he quickly went on to the meat of his speech, saying Iran had proven time and time again that it could not be trusted.

The country was on a “march of conquest, subjugation and terror”, he said.

“Iran’s regime is as radical as ever, the ideology is deeply rooted in militant Islam… it will always be an enemy of US”. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-31716684

Iran has repeatedly claimed that it would destroy and eliminate the nation of Israel. Its delays and obstacles in negotiations related to its nuclear program are consistent with those of a nation that wants to develop nuclear weaponry secretly.

What the Obama Administration does not seem to wish to acknowledge publicly is that all the pressure on Iran has not stopped its ambitions nor goals.

In the past, Benjamin Netanyahu has indicated that Israel would take unilateral steps against Iranian nuclear-related facilities if it felt that this would prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons.

The last ‘deal’ negotiated with Iran did not work well for the West, but did work out reasonably well for Iran. Its financial assets in many countries were freed up, which gave Iran access to more money to finance itself, including its various governmental programs.

Notice something I warned about the earlier deal on November 24, 2013:

What this deal really does is give Iran some economic relief and time to upgrade its technology, while it agrees to get rid of some of its underdeveloped nuclear waste and centrifuges. This, in theory at least, will give Iran more money and more time to work on its nuclear technology, (Iran makes nuclear deal that Obama praises: Israel and Saudi Arabia are not pleased)

A week later I posted:

An ‘interim’ deal is in place that apparently will allow Iran to tap into some of its foreign bank accounts and/or lift some of the economic sanctions against it. The deal will mean that Iran will give up some of its older nuclear centrifuges and enriched uranium. And if you believe Iran and the USA government, it also means that Iran will not be developing nuclear weapons at this time. In my view, this agreement will allow Iran to continue to perfect its technology so that it will be better able to produce nuclear weapons over time. (BibleNewsProphecy: Iran in Prophecy)

And not too long afterwards, Iran has announced that it had new and better nuclear centrifuges.

Nuclear centrifuges basically help enrich uranium to the point that it can be used to develop nuclear energy or nuclear bombs. While Iran is publicly claiming the former, many believe that its real goal is to produce nuclear weapons, hence improved centrifuges will give it a better ability to make weapons.

As far as the current ‘deal,’ until I see details of it, there is little to state, other than Iran still wants to develop its nuclear capabilities and this deal will not change Iranian ambitions. This could be a threat not only to Israel, but to places like the USA and Europe. Even the production of ‘dirty bombs’ that could be used by terrorists could be highly disruptive.

Irrespective of one’s views of Benjamin Netanyahu, I simply do not trust Iran. The ambitions of its top leadership are contrary to peace. The fact that the last ‘interim’ agreement has dragged out as it has is consistent with my views here.

As I have written before, it is possible that God will allow Iran to strike the nation of Israel, consistent with Isaiah 22:1-14. The reality is that Iran wants to be a threat to Israel and I believe Iran would be willing to use nuclear weapons against Israel if it had them and concluded that it would help it attain some of its improper goals.

Israel, however, may hit Iran with a preemptive strike (which it wanted to do before) or a massive retaliatory one. There is truth in Benjamin Netanyahu’s warning. Iran does wish to be a military threat.
