CNN is now reporting that Iran is depending their allies in the Biden-Harris administration to keep Israel from striking their nuclear and oil facilities.
Iran is said to be extremely nervous about Israel’s coming attack and is working over Middle East allies to push Joe and Kamala to stop Israel from doing this.
Here’s the report:
Iran’s government is extremely nervous and has been engaging in urgent diplomatic efforts with countries in the Middle East to gauge whether they can reduce the scale of Israel’s response to its missile attack earlier this month and – if that fails – help protect Tehran, sources familiar with the matter told CNN.
Iran’s anxiety stems from uncertainty about whether the US can convince Israel not to strike Iranian nuclear sites and oil facilities, and the fact that its most important proxy militia in the region, Hezbollah, has been significantly weakened by Israeli military operations in recent weeks, the sources said.
The US has been consulting with Israel on how it plans to respond to Iran’s October 1 attack, and US officials have made clear they do not want Israel to target Iranian nuclear sites or oil fields. US President Joe Biden spoke to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday, their first conversation in almost two months, telling him Israel’s retaliation should be “proportional.”
The US’ Gulf allies, including the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Qatar, have also expressed concern to the US about a potential attack on Iranian oil facilities, which could create negative economic and environmental impacts for the entire region, an Arab diplomat told CNN.
The Biden administration is deeply worried that the ongoing tit-for-tat attacks between Iran and Israel, which began earlier this year after Israel struck what Iran said was its consulate building in Damascus, could spiral into a major regional war that pulls the US in, too.
A major part of the fears is that the US’ influence with Israel has appeared to be steadily waning over the last year. Similarly to its operations in Gaza, Israel has increasingly disregarded the US’ calls for more restraint in Lebanon, where Israel’s intense bombing campaign and ground offensive has killed over 1,400 people since late last month.
Israel also did not consult with the US before conducting a massive attack that exploded thousands of pagers and walkie-talkies used by Hezbollah operatives last month, or before assassinating Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut and upending a delicate ceasefire proposal that had been put forward by the US and France less than 48 hours earlier.
Israel’s security cabinet has not yet reached a decision on how to proceed, an Israeli official told CNN on Friday. And while the gap between the US and Israeli positions is narrowing, it may not remain that way, a US official said.
This is unreal and should never be a story. The US should be wholly and unequivocally backing Israel against the terrorist state of Iran. Period. End of story. But instead, Joe and Kamala have been helping fund Iranian terrorists with relaxed sanctions that have allowed Iran to export 80% more barrels of oil than they could under Trump’s “maximum pressure” strategy. This has brought them “an additional $32 billion to $35 billion” in revenue, which is far more than what Iran was getting from Joe and Kamala’s $6 billion ransom payment and the $10 billion from Iraq that Joe and Kamala allowed them to access which was being held in escrow.
And now, J/K are threatening not to defend Israel if they go forward with an attack on Iran’s oil and nuclear facilities and Iran retaliates.
Joe and Kamala are the reason Iran has the money to fund all of this terrorism against Israel. There are no “tit-for-tat attacks” as CNN suggests. It’s Israel defending itself from terrorists that Joe and Kamala are funding to the hilt. It’s beyond outrageous and evil, and why Joe and Kamala need to be kicked to the curb by voters.
