Some interesting comments from the head of NATO. He says that the alliance won’t bail out Israel if the Iranians invade them.
NATO’s secretary-general says the alliance wouldn’t come to Israel’s defense in case of attack by arch enemy Iran.
Jens Stoltenberg told the magazine Der Spiegel in comments published Saturday that Israel is a partner, but not a member and that NATO’s “security guarantee” doesn’t apply to Israel.
Stoltenberg says NATO isn’t involved in Mideast peace efforts or in conflicts in the region.
He spoke at a time of rising Israel-Iran tensions. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently intensified his criticism of a 2015 agreement between world powers and Iran that offered Tehran sanctions relief for curbs on its nuclear program. The U.S. withdrew from the deal last month.
That is good news, but not terribly surprising. Most European countries are not fond of what the Jews have been doing and have sought stable relations with Iran.
The major question is if the United States will step in to save the Zionists if Iran and their allies invaded. American support is literally the only reason the Iranians have not solved this problem that should have been solved decades go.
