++Josh Marshall writes today how Dick Cheney's speech was to set the table for a week of anti-iranian nuke deal hijinx--except it came too late after President Obama secured enough support for the deal to make it veto-proof.
++Josh Marshall attributes this collapse to the failure of grassroots protests against the deal. The opponents believed they could push this with the millions from Adelson and others.
++Josh Marshall quotes AIPAC as saying Bibi stunt withe Boehner and Dermer forced this issue into a confrontation with a sitting American President and failure was all but quaranteed.
++While it is not clear that the Democrats will stop the bill from coming to the floor,(Senator Coons wants a straight up and down vote) the battle scars already visible in the conflicts within the American-Jewish community and U.S.-Israeli relations. Even the Israeli press is trying to avoid the issue of Bibi's giant failure.
++Josh Marshall urges all those who favor Israel to help pick up the pieces left from the damage Bibi wrought.
