Barney Breen-Portnoy—Top American Jewish Leader Calls on Incoming Trump Administration to Show Strength, Stand Up to Iran:

There are numerous steps President-elect Donald Trump’s incoming administration could take to diminish the threats posed by the Islamic Republic, a top US Jewish leader told The Algemeiner on Tuesday.

“We really have to stand up to Iran,” Malcolm Hoenlein — the executive vice president of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations — said. “The Iranians have to know that the US is not going to tolerate any violations of the nuclear deal, and they will be held to account. Terrorists tend to probe for weakness, and if they believe the West is weak in responses, then they will exploit it. If they run into strength and resistance, then they will adjust accordingly.”

“There are many pieces of legislation pending with additional sanctions,” Hoenlein noted. “I think that is really critical. And while I don’t expect anything immediate, because the administration has to first find its way, I do think there is a lot that could be done, short of completely scuttling the deal — which is something that might be hard to do, given the involvement of the Europeans and everyone else. We have to look, long-term, about how to really hold the Iranians to account; how to get greater transparency, which has been lacking; and a lot of that has to do with the messages we send them.”

“This is not just in regard to the nuclear weapons program, but also their ballistic-missile systems; their undermining regimes in the region; their threats against Israel; their sympathy for Hamas, Hezbollah and other terrorist groups; and their aggressive behavior towards US ships and personnel,” Hoenlein continued.

Regarding a potential Obama administration-led end-of-term lame-duck Israeli-Palestinian diplomatic initiative, Hoenlein warned, “There is, absolutely, still a chance of something happening, because the Palestinians are pressing very hard. I think it diminishes each day, but it partly depends on what happens in Israel and partly depends on what the president may choose to do in terms of putting markers down. It could take the form of a speech, in which President [Barack] Obama lays out his parameters for a peace deal. It could take the form of any one of a number of possibilities, like not vetoing a resolution at the UN. However, so far the administration has not indicated it plans to take any of these steps, and we hope this will continue to be the case.”

SnyderTalk Comment:

First, Malcolm Hoenlein got it right.  Donald Trump needs to stand up to Iran.

Second, that’s the way to treat an incoming president.  Tell him what you know and tell him how you know it, and then trust him to use good judgment and do the right thing.

Telling Obama the truth would not have worked.

Donald Trump is not Barack Obama.  He listens.  That will become evident in due course.

Obama is a perverted ideologue.  Donald Trump is a realist with imagination and panache.

“If My people who are called by My Name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7: 14)

Change that Yahweh calls “good” begins in the hearts of believers—people who are recognizable because they are different.

We are different because we belong to Him and are called by His Name.  We are Yahweh’s people, His followers.

Zarif will not be as belligerent with Trump and his team as he was with Obama and his team.

As I said, Donald Trump is not Barack Obama.
