Biden Told Israel: Get Used to Iran Nuclear Weapons
Barack Obama's presidential running-mate Joseph Biden told Israeli
officials that they need to accept the idea Iran will acquire nuclear
weapons.
Biden, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee,
visiting Israel several years ago, told Israeli officials diplomacy and
sanctions would be futile against Iran.
On Monday Israel's Army Radio reported details of the comments
Biden made when he met with "senior Israeli officials behind closed
doors."
Reportedly Biden told the officials he opposed "opening a additional military and diplomatic front" against Iran.
"Israel will have to reconcile itself with the nuclearization of Iran," Army Radio quoted Biden as telling the Israelis.
Why should Israel have to deal with the fact that Iran may acquire nuclear weapons. Iran's president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has vowed the destruction of Israel and with the close proximity of Israel and Iran, Israel has every right to be afraid. The fact that Biden said this shows that Mr. Biden does not really care about the safety of Israel because Israel should not have to tolerate a nuclear Iran. They are in danger and should do everything possible to protect themselves.
