Both
on the internal and external fronts, President Obama has regained the
initiative. Today´s comments in support of the nuclear deal with Iran are a
clear demonstration of leadership. Including his remarks about Prime Minister Netanyahu´s
campaign against the accord. In a diplomatic manner the US President did
acknowledge Netanyahu´s strong position but concluded by saying very clearly
that the Prime Minister “is wrong”.
And
indeed, he is stubbornly wrong. And he knows it, I suspect. He keeps however
repeating what he has been saying about the Iran agreement because he knows
that internally, in Israel, that gives him a chance to score points. As it is well
known, all statements about external politics are above all for domestic
political gain.
