ZIONIST ORGANIZATION OF AMERICA IN THE MEDIA   5,000 Former Israeli Officers Tell Biden: Iran Nuclear Deal ‘Catastrophic' | World Israel News By Aryeh Savir, TPS (SEPTEMBER 1, 2022 / WORLD ISRAEL NEWS) The pending renewed nuclear deal with Iran is “catastrophic for American, Israeli and global peace and security for a broad range of reasons,” thousands of Israeli security experts are warning while urging the Biden administration not to finalize it. Some 5,000 members of the Israel Defense and Security Forum (IDSF), comprised of senior officers from all of Israel’s security services and law-enforcement agencies, dispatched a letter to U.S. President Joe Biden on Thursday asking him not to sign the nuclear deal with Iran, saying that “based on our collective experience and assessment, we believe that this deal is a threat to global peace,” for three primary reasons. First, they say, despite the Biden administration’s repeated declared commitment to prevent Iran from attaining nuclear weapons, this agreement creates a clear legal pathway for Iran to obtain nuclear weapons by 2031, and denies the signatories of any tools to prevent that. Second, the deal will unleash a regional nuclear arms race, in which states like Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and other Sunni states will be forced to develop or acquire nuclear weapons to mitigate the Iranian threat. “Sectarian and religious war will likely be triggered,” the missive warns. Finally, the letter continues, the deal will deliver a windfall of previously frozen assets to Iran, funds that will “undoubtedly be used to export terror and instability throughout the region and beyond, at an unprecedented scale, with the addition of a future nuclear umbrella as a force multiplier.” The group appealed to Biden as “a lifelong true friend of the Jewish People and the State of Israel,” urging him “not to jeopardize Israel’s security by enabling Iran to achieve nuclear military capabilities."   Read More   Share This Email In Case You Missed It...
