It isn’t whether Israel sabotages any peace agreement it is how and when.

Let us all be reminded that it began on Feb 28th with an act of dishonor and treachery.
Israel has no honor so you know who gets the Orange Medal of Dishonor.

We have finished the day after significant progress in the negotiation between the United States and Iran. We will resume soon after consultation in the respective capitals. Discussions on a technical level will take place next week in Vienna. I am grateful to all concerned for their efforts: the negotiators, the IAEA, and our hosts the Swiss government.

And the mediator of the talks, Oman’s foreign minister Badr Al Busaidi, had much more to say the next day, Feb 27th, on CBS’ program, Face The Nation.

MINISTER ALBUSAIDI: Because if the ultimate objective is to ensure forever that Iran cannot have a nuclear bomb, I think we have cracked that problem through these negotiations by agreeing a very important breakthrough that has never been achieved any time before. And I think if we can capture that and build on it, I think a deal is within our reach.
