I confess that I am enjoying listening to Israel’s BS artist Ambassador Ron Dermer – architect of the notorious congressional speech in March and Netanyahu’s entry on behalf of Mitt Romney in the 2012 US presidential campaign – whining on CNN with more BS arguments about the Iran nuclear deal. This man is a toxic force in US-Israeli relations and someone who is and always was an almost comically inappropriate choice for ambassador.
