Bibi Gets Blasted

++Lapid keeps the attacks coming. He says that no Democrats listen to Dermer anymore. The approval of the deal by the United Nations and the European Union demonstrates that America doesn't listen to Israel anymore, according to Yasir Lapid. The press in Israel is piling on to Bibi saying this is the worst diplomatic defeat in Israel's history.

++Lapid also blasted Bibi for saying he doesn't want a new arms package when the whole Israeli Defense teams does want one. Ashton Carter, who is in Israel now, has met with Israeli defense officials and each side praised the alliance and made provisions for the new package which will contain technologies Israel doesn't have.

++To give you some idea of what the UN vote means,financial and energy sanctions will be lifted by the end of the year. This will allow Iran to freely sell their oil on the world market and allow European businesses to invest in Iran, the 17th largest economy. 

++It's tough to see how the refusal by Congress to approve the deal will hurt Iran. Instead it will isolate the United States. After all the biggest sanctions busters on record are the Koch Brothers and they own the Republican Party.
