Netanyahu calls for US Jews to unite against Iran deal; Resolution of disapproval introduced in US Congress.
WASHINGTON Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took his case against the Iranian nuclear accord to American Jews on Tuesday, calling on them in a live telecast to make their voices heard and oppose the deal.
The video call, organized by the Jewish Federations of North America, came as US Jewry has been struggling with the issue. One leader of the community Greg Rosenbaum of the National Jewish Democratic Council asserted this week that the debate was threatening to tear the US Jewish community apart.
Netanyahu stressed that there was vast support in Israel against the deal, including from opposition leader Isaac Herzog, who he said tries to bring his government down on a daily basis.

(23,946 posts)If any foreign government is wantonly interfering in internal American political affairs, said government is deserving of a little righteous dressing down.......and today 3 more Senators have the thumbs up to Obama and the middle finger to the nuclear-armed Israeli regime.

Just get the USA to fight it for him after getting Israel into a bind first...since where best buddies and all.
One thing is clear. If some are angry with Israel over its meddling in US politics, human rights abuses and trappings of apartheid it will definately be loathed by a majority if US troops die as aresult if having to defend belligerrant Israel.
