Obama Advisor: No Chance Iran Nuke Deal Will Work
2014-02-24
[Israel Today] The man who was until just recently US President Barack Obama's top advisor on the Iran nuclear crisis says there is little-to-no chance that Western diplomatic efforts will actually prevent the Islamic Republic from attaining atomic weapons.

In an interview with Bloomberg, Gary Samore, who is a top political science expert at Harvard University, said the West simply hasn't given Iran enough reason to feel that it must abandon its nuclear ambitions.

That is precisely the criticism that has been coming out of Jerusalem for years. Western diplomatic efforts have lacked the kind of teeth necessary to convince Iran that it's simply not worth pushing forward.
The comments found at the end of the article are insightful.

#5  By OWG Globalism + the logic of Bammerian "red line" theory, Samore is actually saying or inferring that it will.

THE QUESTION IS NO LONGER IFF IRAN [etal?] WILL GET NUKES, BUT WHEN + ESPEC HOW MANY, in support of Co-Superpolarism/polarity.

Put another way, instead of saying Cold War-era, pre-Net, pre-9-11 TWO-POWER OR TWO-SUPERPOWER "GLOBAL NUCLEAR PARITY" [US-vs-USSR] = "MUTUAL CO-EXISTENCE", ITS NOW MULTI-POWER OR MULTI-SUPERPOWER "GLOBAL NUCLEAR PARITY" OR "CO-EXISTENCE" [US-vs-Submit-Country-Name(s)-Here].

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG???

E.g. MSM-NET'S = "... THE RISE OF THE REST".

#3  Nukes are fatal to USE, but they're cool for threatening with.

If you're serious.

#2  Of course, this is exactly what Obama has intended. He sees himself getting another Nobel out of the deal.

Until, of course, Tel Aviv disappears under a mushroom cloud.
