Kerry: If Congress Kills Iran Deal, World Will Blame Israel

• http://news.antiwar.com, by Jason Ditz

Taking his efforts to sell the Iran deal on the road, Secretary of State John Kerry spoke at several conferences and media interviews today on the matter, starting off with comments before the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) during which he had some serious warnings for Israel.

During the CFR talks, Kerry cautioned that considering intense Israeli lobbying efforts against the pact, if the US Congress does end up killing the deal the international community is likely to blame Israel more than it blames the US for blocking it.

Kerry also warned during the comments that Congress blocking the deal would be humiliating for the US in general, and would make it difficult for him to negotiate any diplomatic deals, giving the appearance that the US has "535 secretaries of State."
