Amano/Biden: Israel’s survival definitely off the table

While, in order to give Israel another one of those daily international community blows, all aimed at its annihilation,

[t]he head of the UN’s International Atomic Energy Agency is asking for international input on an Arab-led push to have Israel join the Nonproliferation Treaty, in a move that adds to pressure on Jerusalem to disclose its unacknowledged nuclear arsenal[,]

Joe Biden tells the EU parliament the joke that

[t]he United States and European Union have stood side-by-side to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons[,]

adding that

Iran’s nuclear program violates its obligations under NPT and risks sparking a nuclear arms race in the Middle East.

Nothing more.

The quotes are from the Jerusalem Post Online, 6/5/2010.

Duplicity Joe

“In my 34-year career, I have never wavered from the notion that the only time progress has ever been made in the Middle East is when the Arab nations have known that there is no daylight between us and Israel,” [Joe] Biden stated during the [presidential] campaign [of Barack Hussein Obama]. “So the idea of being an ‘honest broker’ is not, as some of my Democratic colleagues call for, the answer. It is being the smart broker; it is being the smart partner.”

The decision by an Interior Ministry committee to announce approval of plans for some 1,600 housing units in northeast Jerusalem’s Ramat Shlomo neighborhood cast a pall Tuesday night over the visit of US Vice President Joe Biden, who squarely condemned the move.

Quotation of the decade (so to speak)

Isn’t it something the way the same names that helped dismantle Yugoslavia and Serbia seem to be resurfacing to dismantle Israel? All the names that fingered Serbia as it dealt with terror are giving Israel the same trouble. They and their credibility and careers could have been demolished, these people stopped in their tracks, if anyone gave a damn about Western machinations in the Balkans. Instead they’re coming back to haunt more than just the Serbs.
