Arab Official: Most Middle East Countries
Agree With Israel on Iran

Most Arab countries quietly endorse Israel’s condemnation of President Barack Obama’s praise for the Iran nuclear deal signed last year, an Arab official told Breitbart Jerusalem.

The official said many Arab regimes see eye to eye with the Israeli Defense Ministry, which issued a statement on Saturday castigating Obama for saying that Iran has honored the deal. He said the U.S. “misunderstands” Iranian policy and turns a blind eye to their violations of the agreement.

The Ministry statement equates the Iran deal to the 1938 Munich Agreement, which symbolizes the West’s failure to stand up to Nazi aggression. The statement says the world ignores Iran’s pledge to exterminate Israel just like it ignored Hitler’s rhetoric in his day. Israel also argues that such deals interfere with the West’s mission to undermine countries that support terror, chief among them Iran.

On Sunday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office clarified that while Israel opposes the nuclear agreement, the Defense Ministry statement making comparisons to Nazi Germany was not coordinated with Netanyahu or his bureau.

The Arab official, meanwhile, said that as a result of the lifting of international sanctions, Iran has been free to press on with developing ballistic missiles. Iran realizes Washington has taken a step back, which is leading to the consolidation of the Iranian regime throughout the Middle East, he said.

He argued that although Iranian facilities are subject to international supervision, Iran still aspires to become a nuclear superpower and seeks to become a threshold state. He warned that several reports have shown that Iran is focusing its efforts on making the necessary arrangements for that, which is something even inspections can’t prevent entirely.

The official said the deal has allowed Iran to test new ballistic missiles, tests which have gone unanswered by America.

The recent gains of the Houthi rebels, Iran’s allies in Yemen, are evidence that Iran maximizes the allowances of the deal to arm its regional collaborators, he said. He alleged that Iran’s efforts to spread Shia Islam and agitate sympathetic communities in neighboring Arab countries have been ignored by the American government.

He also said that if Iran succeeds in winning the Syrian civil war, it will be a threat equal to what Nazi Germany was to Europe – which is essentially what the Israeli Defense ministry statement also said.

 

London Terror Attacks
Resembles Ones In Israel

A 19-year-old man armed with a knife begins stabbing people at random in a busy public area in London. After rampaging down several city streets and attacking passersby, the assailant was subdued by police, but not before he murdered one civilian and injured five others.

The mayhem in central London last week resembles the bloody scenes regularly played out here during the ongoing so-called Palestinian wave of violence in Tel Aviv and in cities and towns across the Jewish state.

Authorities have yet to confirm a terrorist motivation in the Russell Square attacks, but the carnage resembles the time-tested Palestinian tactic of terrorist stabbings at busy civilian locales.

Such jihadi stabbing attacks have become legion here, sometimes occurring several times per week, although the frequency has slowed in recent months due in large part to Israeli anti-terrorism measures.

If the Russell Square attack was indeed motivated by terrorism, it would mark the second time in recent weeks that a Palestinian terrorist tactic was deployed on the streets of Europe.

Last month, the terrorist gunman who killed 84 people and wounded over 300 others during Bastille Day celebrations in the French Riviera city of Nice seemed to have taken a page out of the Palestinian jihadist playbook of vehicular terrorism.
