International controversy continues to swirl around the contentious deal brokered by the U.S. in Geneva with Iran.
The Iranian leadership is calling the Obama administration liars over reports that released details of the negotiations. Many U.S. lawmakers are also at odds with the Obama administration over the deal.
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu is declaring that he will not “shut up” about this “very bad” deal being brokered without any Israeli participation.
Tomorrow, I am meeting with members of the Prime Minister’s staff. As part of the meeting, I will announce that we have over 86,000 letters of support from Americans who have declared that weStand with Israel.
Today, I urge you to add your letter to this important delivery while there is still time. With your help and God’s favor, we could have 100,000 signatures by tomorrow!
Please see my very important update below – Mat.
Joseph,
It does not bode well for the proposed deal being negotiated in Geneva that even before it is signed, Iran is calling a White House fact sheet on the proposal “not true.”
Sadly, this is very reminiscent of White House fact sheets on ObamaCare – and what we now know to be the truth.
The Iranian leadership is accusing the Obama administration of putting together releases designed to mislead the American people and to sway public opinion in favor of the deal.
A spokeswoman for Iran’s Foreign Ministry, Marziyeh Afkham, issued the following statement published by theFars news agency…
“What has been released by the website of the White House as a factsheet is a one-sided interpretation of the agreed text in Geneva and some of the explanations and words in the sheet contradict the text of the Joint Plan of Action [the title of the Iran-powers deal], and this factsheet has unfortunately been translated and released in the name of the Geneva agreement by certain media, which is not true.”
Iran contends that their right to enrich uranium, the key component necessary to produce a nuclear weapon, is fully recognized under the draft released by Tehran. The Iranian statement continues…
“This comprehensive solution would enable Iran to fully enjoy its right to nuclear energy for peaceful purposes under the relevant articles of the NPT in conformity with its obligations therein… [and] would involve a mutually defined enrichment program with practical limits and transparency measures to ensure the peaceful nature of the program.”
This deal, brokered by the U.S., was allegedly crafted in part by secret negotiations between the Obama administration and Iranian leadership for months before the Geneva meetings. Under orders from President Obama, the U.S. has already begun to release frozen Iranian assets before the ink is dry on the deal.
The discrepancies that are emerging continue to raise the “trust” question about the entire deal.
Who do we believe: The Obama administration with its serial deceptions of the American people, or Iranian leadership, who are also known to stretch the limits of any agreement that is not in their best interest?
I trust the assessment of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who has repeatedly decried the deal, calling it a “historic mistake” and the “deal of the century” for Iran.
++Benjamin Netanyahu will not “shut up” when Israel’s interests are at stake.
During a weekend visit to Rome, Prime Minister Netanyahu said, “I see that our vital interests are at stake and I will not shut up.”
Likewise, Liberty Counsel and our friends will not “shut up” about this misguided deal, either!
I arrived in Israel today with a contingency of foreign affairs experts headed by the Center for Security Policy’s Founder and President, Frank Gaffney.
We all Stand with Israel – and will make that position clear in our meetings with Prime Minister Netanyahu’s staff and possibly even the Prime Minister himself.
Join us here today with your own letter of support!
Joseph, Here is how you can have your message delivered…
Tomorrow, I will be announcing the signatures of tens of thousands of Americans who have declared that, together, we Stand with Israel.
Our letters of support will tell Prime Minister Netanyahu that American patriots support our foremost ally in the Middle East.
Joseph, now is the time to add your name to this powerful letter. Click here to add your letter before tomorrow’s delivery in Israel:
++American lawmakers are also at odds with Obama’s Iran deal.
Senator Marco Rubio is among the most outspoken skeptics of the Iranian agreement. Here’s his recent statement…
“I am personally skeptical of the interim agreement that the P5+1 have concluded with Iran. I am convinced that Iran’s ultimate goal in these negotiations has been to achieve relief from the pressures of international sanctions, while retaining the option of developing a nuclear weapon.”
Senator Lindsay Graham (R-SC) is demanding that Iran’s nuclear buildup be stopped BEFORE sanctions are lifted. He told CNN’s New Day that
“You stop enrichment, not just pause it… This deal doesn't represent the fact that we are dealing with some of the most thuggish people in the world."
Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) was also upset with the deal and promised that the Senate would take a long, hard look at it and consider its options.
++The fact is, the American People stand with Israel!
We Stand with Israel in spite of the President’s incoherent Middle East policies that jeopardize the relationship we have with one of our greatest allies.
Please take a minute right now to add your name to this effective letter so that I can carry your message of support to the Israeli leadership.
Go here to make your voice heard:
After you sign the letter, consider obtaining your copy ofThe Patriot’s Handbook of Essential Reasons to Stand with Israel.
This highly insightful handbook, a Liberty Counsel exclusive product, would make a great addition to any patriot’s resources as it addresses the history of U.S.-Israel relations and the reasons as to why it is in our best interest to stand with Israel.
God bless you for joining me in standing with Israel!

P.S. The decision of choosing who to trust when the Iranian leadership calls the Obama White House liars is a sad statement on President Obama’s trustworthiness.
Please join us in supporting Israel while there is still time. Once again, thank you and God bless you!
