Kerry: a very disturbed Sec O' State

Secretary of State John Kerry was interviewed by Nadia Bilbassy-Charters on Al-Arabiya Television, where he admitted that the mean things Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said in public about the United States was "very disturbing." Things like destroying Israel, killing all the Jews, and calling the US the "Great Satan" and their archenemies, kind of bothered Hillary's equally useless replacement.

Kerry said he was going to try convincing our Gulf partners just how peachy this agreement is "and how it makes the Gulf states and the region safer."

What makes anyone believe that John Kerry has any clue about this claim when it's absolutely clear that Iran's history is one of taqiyya, or lying to the enemy to promote their cause? 

And the Gulf states and the USA are their enemy.

"I will also discuss with them at great length the things the United States of America is going to do, working with them, in order to push back against the terror and counter-terrorism efforts and other activities in the region that are very alarming to them. It's a chance for them to ask me any misgivings they have," the Lurch-like Vietnam hero (by his own admission) said.

Bilbassy-Charters asked Kerry if the United States would be capable of stopping the "nefarious activities of Iran in four Arab capitals?"

Hair-plugs Kerry used the Socratic approach: "Is it better to push back against those activities against an Iran with a nuclear weapon or an Iran without one?"

Rather than trusting Ms. Bilbassy-Charters would supply the answer he was looking for, Kerry answered the question himself, causing Socrates to roll over in his grave. "Obviously without one. So you have to begin somewhere," the biker with the broken leg said.

Why? Why must we negotiate with terrorists? Why not impose even greater sanctions and allow Israel to take care of business if Iran tries to go nuclear? 

When the interviewer asked Kerry about the money Iran was going to get from this one-sided deal, he did his Socratic dance once more: "Who has more cash? Saudi Arabia and the Emirates and Qatar, or Iran?"

You don't win wars because you have more money than your enemies, John. I know you think money is the answer to everything, which is why you married several rich women who supported you in the style in which you're accustomed. You win wars when you have the means and the will to win, and this deal gives Iran the means.

Iran will have more than adequate funding for the purchase of weapons from Russia and China, as this deal allows, and they will be able to fully develop and manufacture enough nuclear bombs to make the world look like a neglected barbecue grill top.

Perhaps you should go and live in Israel, Mr. Kerry, after the deal is completed.

When Khamenei made his threatening remarks about the Great Satan, Kerry said, "I don't know how to interpret it at this point in time, except to take it at face value, that that's his policy. But I do know that often comments are made publicly and things can evolve that are different. If it is the policy, it's very disturbing, it's very troubling, and we'll have to wait and see."

Wait for what, John? A blinding light and sonic boom on the horizon?

Then our so-called Secretary of State added: "But that's one of the reasons for my meeting with all of the Gulf States; it's one of the reasons for our being very attentive to guaranteeing the security of the region. And we are not kidding when we talk about the importance of pushing back against extremism, against support for terrorism and proxies who are destabilizing other countries. It's unacceptable."

Unacceptable? That should scare the crap out of the Ayatollah. Obama warned Assad of Syria that what he was doing to his own people was "unacceptable" and that he was drawing a red line in the sand. Yes, I'm sure Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is shaking in his sandals.

When Kerry was asked if Iran will cheat on the deal and go forward in nuclear weapons development he responded: "I have no idea. I'm not going to accuse somebody of cheating before somebody does, bit I will tell you that this agreement is built so that you're not surprised, so that you know you have the mechanisms in place to prevent it."

The mechanisms do not include the ability of the US to actually be part of the inspection team in "known" facilities--we aren't allowed to go there. It's the undeclared facilities that will obviously be the problem, but maybe Israel will deal with them. I hope so.

The biggest problem we have, however, is our team of incompetents in the Obama administration who are either naive or simply don't care about the outcome, just as long as a deal is struck--any deal.

When your enemy is dancing in the streets, handing out halvah, sweets, and babaganoush, while the crowds shout "Death to America!" we've got a problem.
