April 19, 2015 "ICH" -  The deal between Capital Hill and President Obama on April 14th is a travesty, particularly for Americans, Iranians, and people of the Middle East. The President has yielded to the sworn lovers of Israel, violating the promises he made before his first term. Israel is happy with the “compromise” deal on Iran between Congress and the President!

The Lebanese artist, philosopher, and writer, Kahlil Gibran, states in the Prophet “Say not, I have found the truth," but more exactly, "I have found a truth" about the President. He yields to bullies.

John Adams held "Liberty cannot be preserved without general knowledge among the people." This avowal counsels the given requisite of an educated public if any democratic nation is to endure as an effective honest society. Certainly, information is unlimited. Yet, most of the media, al least the enticed media, in the U.S. is devoted to Israel to the detriment of our people. Instead of speaking to the nation and revealing the truth, President Obama yielded to the Israeli Prime Minister and the neocons!

Granting the President’s power to Congress, and worse, to Israel, is unlawful. “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. — That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. (Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776).

Which part of the deal between the President and Congress supports the “Liberty” of this nation and is derived from the consent of the governed? Lincoln and King liberated the African Americans. By agreeing with Congress, the President has enslaved our citizens with the help of a racist government. With all due respect to the President, this is the result of deceit.

Americans did not fight for independence from Britain only to lose it to Israel! We demand independence from Israel. If George Washington, John Adams, or Thomas Jefferson were President today, each would charge those who attended the speech by the Israeli Prime Minister with treason.

Distinct from the cowardly GOP members in power and several gutless Democrats, Prime Minister Netanyahu did not tremble when the President and his colleagues condemned him. The Prime Minister offered a strong speech. He painted a nuclear Iran as the greatest danger facing the World! As to ISIS, “the enemy of your enemy is your enemy,” Iran! What a claptrap!

This nation gave much blood and treasure, and slaughtered countless innocent people in the Middle East and North Africa for the sake of Israel. Mislead by Israel, our government created millions of diehard foes for our people. The likely end of the Deal is to take the U.S. into another war, this time with Iran, with the President earning another prize, Crowned with the Laurel of Eight Wars against Muslim nations!

No country can be ruined from the evil forces abroad unless its citizens, headed by its leaders, abate and ignore freedoms, destroying themselves and the nation. After leaving Office, President Obama will be remembered as the first American President, a black man, who yielded to the leader of an Apartheid country!

Finally, Israel has a headship crisis. It has passed from a group of founders who “promised” legality, buoyancy, justice, exercised power, and made decisions. The recent leaders are a group of younger jesters, with the Prime Minister as its vilest example. They are talented, “clever”, but not intelligent. The PM lacks the skill and courage to unit Jews in his country aiming to live in harmony with Palestinians of all faiths and colors on the basis equal parity. Israel needs a diplomat! True leaders can surely rise to trials. When Haaretz pooled last December it found 54% of Israelis think that the Prime Minister should not remain in office, proving the PM is a “leader” with no foresight but he wins elections breaking promises with no shame!

What a shame! Yielding to the servants of a foreign Prime Minister is a shocking mark of national decline for the leader of a “supposed” Superpower. This is the view of your staunchest supporters, me included.
