So, the American congress needs assistance from foreign intelligence services to get information about the actions of the American president. I guess this is the new meaning of the most transparent administration in history.

What risk they pose to Israel is none of my concern. That's for Israel to figure out. I only care about the United States.
Normally, people could agree that a backward little country like Iran would pose no threat to the United States. But since we are talking about a country that is run by a Theocracy whose bats--t crazy beliefs include getting virgins for blowing up Jews and infidels? I think that has the potential for starting a world war.

They should be left out.

And Israel shouldn't trust Obama. I don't trust Israeli leadership either.
Who said that Congress is uninformed.

Thank you for vividly illustrating the liberal cluelessness.

Congress already had the information. How else could they conclude that "its a very bad deal"? I do not believe the Congress asked a foreign nation to spy on the meetings. If they did, then we have a bigger problem than Israel simply looking for information.

Then what does this mean?

The US has accused Israel of spying on international negotiations over Iran’s nuclear programme and using the intelligence gathered to persuade Congress to undermine the talks.

If Iran wanted to start a world war, they could do it now.

Moreover, all nations where a majority of people believe believe in God can be classified as having bat**** crazy beliefs.

Believing that a man walked on water or brought a dead man back to life is just as nutty as believing in 72 virgins.

Actually, you are raising an interesting question.

John Boehner has come out today and said he is not aware of any information being passed by the Israelis to Congress.

So, who was this information supposedly passed to? Or is Barack Obama lying about this, too?
Quote:
Boehner 'shocked' by Israel report

“I read that story this morning, and frankly, I was a bit shocked because there’s no information revealed to me whatsoever,” Boehner, a Republican from Ohio told reporters Tuesday morning. He added, “I was shocked by the fact that there were reports in this press article that information was being passed on from the Israelis to members of Congress. I’m not aware of that at all.”

Can you answer my question?

How could the Congress determine it was a "very bad deal" if they had no idea what was in it?

But this is 2015 and the followers of Christianity probably don't want to cut off your head or annihilate a country for a lack of belief in Jesus. The leaders of Iran do. If they want to start a war with Israel, fine. They have proven their ability to take care of themselves. Just don't allow Iran to have a weapon that puts everyone else at risk.
