Rahmenabkommen über iranisches Atomprogramm Das Anfang April erreichte Rahmenabkommen der fünf UN-Vetomächte und Deutschlands mit der irani­schen Regierung stieß in Jerusalem auf scharfe Kritik. Ministerpräsident Benjamin Netanyahu warnte in einem Telefonat mit US-Präsident Barack Obama vor einer existentiellen Gefahr für Israel. Die Eck­punkte, die bis zum Sommer in einen Vertrag mün­den sollen, halten u.a. fest, dass Iran in den kom­menden zehn Jahren in etwa zwei Drittel der Zentri­fugen zur Urananreicherungen still legt. Die Atoman­lagen sollen außerdem für Kontrollen der Internatio­nalen Atomenergiebehörde(IAEA) zugängig sein. In Israel bleibt man jedoch weiterhin besorgt. The"historic" agreement that ignores history (…) In 1994 President Clinton made a television address from the White House remarkably similar in wording to that of Mr. Obama following the Lau­sanne meetings.(…) It celebrated an"agreement" reached with North Korea to end that country's nu­clear weapons program.

The same will hap­pen again with Iran unless(1) sanctions are main­tained and strengthened leading to regime change in Iran or(2) military force is used to destroy or seri­ously damage Iran's nuclear facilities. The alterna­tive is living(or dying) with a nuclear weapons­capable fanatical, tyrannical, aggressive regime much more dangerous for the rest of the world than North Korea will ever be. Too bad the meetings weren't held in the holy city of Qom. In that case the comparison with the betrayal of Czechoslovakia by the British and French in 1938 would have been even more perfect. That famous meeting, leading to an"historic" agreement, was of course, held in Mu­nich, birthplace of the Nazi Party. Norman Bailey, GLO, 06.04.15 Israel will benefit from an Iran nuclear deal (…) we should take a breath and try to understand what each side is trying to achieve(…) The real goal of the world powers is to keep Iran in this situation, or return it to a situation in which it cannot produce enough fissile material for the core of a nuclear weapon for more than 10 years. No fissile material, no bomb.(…) The West is hoping that within the next 10-15 years, the ayatollahs will fall or be over­thrown, or become more open and less militant.(…) Iran is primarily interested in the removal of sanc­tions(…) and(…) to protect the honor and prestige of the regime.(…) Israel's aim is to completely pr e­vent – in the present and in the future- the possibil­ity of Iran developing and producing nuclear weap­1
