Biden: Israel Free to Attack Iran

Biden: Israel Free to Attack Iran
PressTV.com

US Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden says Israel can take any action against Iran without Washington's permission.

"Israel has an absolute right to defend itself, Biden told The Jerusalem Post on Wednesday adding that "It doesn't have to ask us".

His remarks come amid reports that the Bush administration was opposed to a military action by Israel against Iran's nuclear facilities.

The Washington Post quoted an unnamed official as saying earlier in August that, "Everyone from this White House, including the vice president's office, is in agreement that the military option is not the best option at this point."

Biden however said, "It's not a question for us to tell Israel what they can and cannot do."

Israeli officials have frequently threatened Iran with military action to halt its nuclear program. Tel Aviv and its Western allies have been accusing the Islamic Republic of developing nuclear weapons.

Tehran however dismisses the allegations and asserts that as a signatory to the nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty (NPT) it is entitled to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes.

You are so right Mr. "Zionist" Biden, "It's not a question for us to tell Israel what they can and cannot do."

The relevant question that has turned America from a shining beacon to a loathed target, is: "Why does Israel tell America what it can and cannot do?"

The Israelification of America, led by the Pelosis, Liebermans, and Bidens in Washington has destroyed our moral foundation. It is only after America makes a "clean break" from the Nazi like influence of Israel, we can begin our American "Renaissance."
