Kerry: Israel, Egypt, Saudis pushed US to bomb Iran before nuke deal
I was in Vietnam, you knowKerry Former Senator-for-Life from Massachussetts, self-defined war hero, speaker of French, owner of a lucky hat,conqueror of Cambodia, unsuccessful presidential candidate, and utterly failed Secretary of State... said both Israel and Egypt pushed the United States to "bomb Iran" before the 2015 nuclear deal was struck. Kerry defended the deal during remarks Tuesday at the Ignatius Forum in Washington, saying Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was "genuinely agitating towards action," before he struck the accord with Tehran. Kerry said when he was chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, he met with  Late King of the Arabians, Sheikh of the Burning Sands Abdullah... Now a dead guy... , Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak ...The former President-for-Life of Egypt, dumped by popular demand in early 2011... and Netanyahu, who all lobbied for military action. "Each of them said to me, you have to bomb Iran, it’s the only thing they are going to understand," he said. But Kerry said that was "a trap" since the Arab countries would have publicly criticized the US if it bombed Iran. It was not clear when the conversations took place. Kerry chaired the Senate panel from 2009 to early 2013. Mubarak was deposed in February 2011. Posted by: trailing wife 2017-12-01 |
