Iran, Hezbollah Off Terror List As Concession In Nuke Talks

by JASmius



To quote Winston Obama, "We shall flag and fail. We shall not go on to the end. We shall surrender in the Middle East, we shall surrender on the seas and oceans, we shall surrender with growing dhimmitude and growing weakness in the air, we shall surrender our country, whatever the cost may be. We shall surrender on the beaches, we shall surrender on the landing grounds, we shall surrender in the fields and in the streets, we shall surrender in the hills; we shall never resist our Muslim overlords. For...."



We are well and truly through the looking glass, my friends:

Iran and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah have been removed from this year's terror list, despite being on it for the past several years.

Fox News Channel reported Tuesday that the office of National Intelligence Director James Clapper blamed the omission on a formatting change in the way the document is printed.

Fox's Greta Van Susteren called it "a little bit insane that they changed the format and suddenly the two worst terrorists, Iran and Hezbollah, disappear."

"A little bit", Greta?  Good thing you had John Bolton as your guest, or that vomitous euphemizng would never have been rectified:

Former U.N. Ambassador John Bolton said the omission may be tied to nuclear negotiations currently underway between the United States and Iran.

"The people who would say this is a format change are weasels," Bolton said on Fox News Channel's On the Record with Greta Van Susteren.

"It's a flat lie. The format of this year's report is exactly the same as last year's report. Don't believe me? Go look on the web. Compare the two of them. It's exactly the same."

Raising the question of why the Obama Regime feels the need to toss such transparent deceptions out there as cover for this most egregious sop to the mullahs yet.  Do they really think the hoi-palloi are this stupid?  Is it just reflexive?  Or do they get their kicks from dripping their contempt for their enemies by this particular avenue?  I have to guess the latter, if only because I can't believe that they're stupid enough to believe that anybody would believe that a "formatting change" would be so surgically precise, or that nobody would have caught it before it went out.

Leading, ipso facto, to the next question: Why try to alibi this expunging of the past thirty-six years of the Islamic Empire's bloody track record when everybody knows the White House is damned proud of it?  This is what Barack Obama has always wanted to do.  He's always thought that America was on the wrong side of everything, had all the wrong allies and all the wrong enemies.  After removing the mullahs and the Hezbos from the terrorism sponsors list, the next logical step is to seek a treaty of formal alliance with Iran (never to be submitted to the Senate for ratification, of course), and I have no doubt that those talks are already underway.  "Clandestinely," of course.

Which leads to Ambassador Bolton's final thought:

Bolton said he believes the Iranian negotiators told the American negotiators they have to ease up on labeling the country the largest state sponsor of terrorism.

Bolton said he doesn't believe the details of the arrangement will show up in the final nuclear deal, which is troubling, he said, because it raises questions of what other concessions might have been made, but will never be made public.

Such as, say, the U.S. shooting down Israeli warplanes if they make any move against Iran's nuclear weapons facilities.  Or the U.S. standing down when the mullahs launch their nuclear attack against Israeli cities.  Or Obama giving his blessing to the Iranian incineration of certain European cities.  Or an agreement to fast-track the imposition of Sharia law in the U.S.  Or all of the above.  Even the sky is no longer the limit for King Hussein, so intense is his lust for that Neville Chamberlain photo-op.



Meanwhile, the contrast between his frantic wooing of the mullahs and the Regime's "official" reaction to Benjamin Netanyahu's re-election last night is positively vertigo-inducing:

“We want to congratulate the Israeli people for the democratic process for the election that they just engaged in while condemning in the strongest possible terms the choice they made with all the parties that engaged in that election. As you know now, the hard work of coalition building begins, and Isaac Herzog must be allowed to form the next government no matter how many votes that filthy, warmongering kike received. It will take us a couple of weeks to subvert that process Sometimes that takes a couple of weeks. And we’re going to give space to the formation of that coalition government and we’re not going to weigh in one way or another except to say that the United States and Israel have a historic and close relationship and that will continue going forward only as long as Netanyahu is kept out of it at gunpoint, and preferably jailed pending extradition to Tehran,” Simas said.

Oooops.  Looks like the White House is still having "formatting difficulties," huh?
