Trita Parsi, "Netanyahu has crossed the point of no return on Iran": CNN's Latest Anti-Israel Propaganda Piece

Trita Parsi, president of the National Iranian American Council, in a CNN "opinion" entitled "Netanyahu has crossed the point of no return on Iran," which is now being given a prominent place on CNN's home page, writes:

"But over the course of the past 18 months, the Netanyahu government has made Iran all about Israel. While virtually the entire world is eager for a peaceful nuclear deal, Israel stands alone (bar a few Arab states in the Persian Gulf) in opposing the talks. While Israel helped shape international consensus about Iran's nuclear program in the years past, Israel is today decisively outside of that consensus."

Israel stands alone? I wonder why? I guess it never occurred to darling Trita that Israel is the only country in the world being threatened with annihilation by Iran. Consider, for example, the following recent tweet from Iranian Supreme Leader Khamenei calling for the destruction of Israel:

"This barbaric, wolflike & infanticidal regime of #Israel which spares no crime has no cure but to be annihilated."

Not sufficient reason for Israel to be concerned by Obama's hand over fist concessions to a maniacal Iranian regime that stones to death women accused of adultery, hangs homosexuals, persecutes Baha'is, oppresses Kurds, abuses Sunni Muslims, and brutally quashes political opposition? Not for Trita . . .

By the way, have a look at the advisory board of the National Iranian American Council. Listed first is former US ambassador Thomas Pickering, who co-authored a critical report concerning security arrangements at the US diplomatic compound in Benghazi, but which let Hillary Clinton off the hook. Charming . . .
