1. Great news

Which should lower the price of oil and make filling my car cheaper In the longer term it is dangling a carrot in front of the Iranians to do what they promised in Geneva. Nice headline story, but I would have thought that Iranian and American military co-operation in Iraq to get rid of Al Qaeda was actually a bigger issue for Israel than a trade agreement which may or may not happen
2. Regardless what happens with Iran negotiations,

the existing third-party sanctions will completely fall apart over the next 12 months and the US will be ignored. If the US tries to enforce the sanctions by punishing the third parties, the third parties will severely punish US business interests and cause long term major damage to the US economy. The bottom line is whatever the US gets in this round of negotiation is the BEST they can get and Israel is just going to have to live with Iran having nuclear capacity.
3. Who Protects Israel?

China is buying Iran's oil, soon Russia will be doing so. This makes them quasi protectors of Iran. Who stands for Israel? Certainly not Obama's America.
4. Russia is the enemy

If Russia continues to support the enemies of the West, why doesn't the West embargo Russian products?
