Obama, Netanyahu at odds over talks with Iran

Share:

Exposing a rift with Israel, President Obama on Sunday insisted that the U.S. has not “given anything away” in new talks with Iran as he defended his continued push for a diplomatic resolution to the dispute over Tehran’s nuclear ambitions.

Mr. Obama said he refused to let the talks turn into a “stalling process,” but thought there was still time for diplomacy.

His assessment, delivered at the close of a Latin American summit in Colombia, came after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday had said the U.S. and world powers gave Tehran a “freebie” by agreeing to hold more talks next month.

Mr. Obama shot back: “The notion that somehow we’ve given something away or a ‘freebie’ would indicate Iran has gotten something. In fact, they’ve got some of the toughest sanctions that they’re going to be facing coming up in just a few months if they don’t take advantage of these talks.”

Still, in a news conference here, Mr. Obama warned to Iran, “The clock’s ticking.”

  1. It is time for the United States to tell Netanyahu to go to hell. This murdering scum has been nothing but a war hungry SOB. And before he attacks Iran or any other country for what he called (preemptice strikes), Israel should get rid of its own nuclear weapons…
    But no wonder why Israel was one of the top countries that did not like having Obama as an American president.

         Reminder 09 that Jews and Arabs (Christians and Muslims) lived together for hundreds of years before the Brits created all the problems. The biggest mistake the Zionists did was creating the refugees issue otherwise the issue would have been forgotten.

          So .. time to stop trying to export all the religious crap along with various economic refugees to the west, I’d say.
