If you think that the geopolitics chessboard with US Empire hegemony historically ruling the roost has been shaken up in recent months whereby such longstanding US allies like Israel and Saudi Arabia have been thrown under the bus by the Obama administration in favor of warming relations with longtime enemy Iran since the P-5 nuke deal, think again. Despite Congress' end-around in March 2015 defying US law requiring any foreign leader's entrance to the US to be cleared by the standing US president, Netanyahu's grandstanding performance wooing multiple ovations from an adoring AIPAC-bribed Congress on Capitol Hill designed to embarrass Obama and sabotage his Iran nuclear agreement failed in the end and the longtime negotiated deal with Iran was congressionally ratified last September, much to Bibi and AIPAC's chagrin.

This unprecedented development marked a discrete break from previous US Middle East policy where the US always knuckled under to do whatever bidding Israel wanted or demanded (including fighting two costly proxy wars for the Greater Israel Project in the region, the longest running wars in US history still being fought). Meanwhile, Iran was always deemed the incorrigible, heavily sanctioned enemy ever since US puppet dictator the Shah was overthrown by an Islamic fundamentalist Khomeini government back in February 1979. And ever since the Bush-Cheney 7 nation regime change list, Iran, and its defense pact ally Syria remain the final two notches on Empire's imperialistic gun.
