New York protesters slam ‘incredibly dangerous’ Iran deal
By Cathryn J. Prince July 23, 2015
“We came to the conclusion that we must educate the public, in the most strident language, that this is a farce, this is a threat – not just to Israel but for America and for the world. A failure to ‘Stop Iran Now’ could necessitate a military response later,” Wiesenfeld told The Times of Israel.
“The public will not be fooled again; Americans will not stand for another North Korea. If this deal is not stopped, New York voters will know who to blame,” Wiesenfeld said.
In a telephone interview before the rally, former New York governor and 2016 GOP presidential candidate George Pataki said US President Barack Obama violated his oath of office when he took the deal to the United Nations Security Council last week before giving Congress a chance to review the document. Under the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act of 2015, Congress has 60 days to review the deal, and can seek scuttle it with legislation that would prevent the White House’s planned rescinding of some of the sanctions placed on Iran.
“That showed tremendous disrespect for the US Congress and it was an active betrayal of Israel, our strongest ally in the Middle East,” Pataki said of the UN vote.
The deal threatens American security, Pataki said.
“In no way does this deal change Iran’s attitude to America. During the negotiations it was calling for ‘Death to America,’” he noted. “There are dozens of legitimate reasons to reject this deal. It allows for hundreds of billions in [sanctions] relief, the lifting of sanctions on conventional arms, all while Iran keeps supporting terror around the world.”
