The Strong Silent Type...................from Dan Friedman

[No one can say for sure what Israel has in store for the Mullahs, if anything. No real leader would ever telegraph his punches. But on the surface Bibi is playing his old word games. His daring foray into American politics in March, which I favored, has gained Israel nothing except the continued enmity of BHO and a “very, very bad deal.” Now Bibi seems to be doubling down by compounding his error. Certainly no one outside of the Islamofascists wants war. But my own view is the Jihad closing in on Israel will force Bibi’s hand, leaving him no other choice. Not only is silence golden, but practiced at the appropriate moment, it can strike terror in the heart of your enemies. The sooner Netanyahu tries it the sooner Israel’s enemies – and the world - will know Israel is serious. df]
 
 
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urged U.S. lawmakers to hold out for a better Iran deal and said there was no way to compensate Israel if the nuclear agreement goes through.
