Looks like I will hold the follow-up audio until tomorrow
in the hope we have some certainty on Bibi's fate....
Uh, huh.
But my position re Netanyahu is based on the
expectation that Kulanu will be backing Herzog.

| I remember reading about China's (attempt at) establishing a so called corridor to ME/Europe way back in the early 90's. There were a slew of books back then about this by fundamentalist Christian authors. This endeavor of course Leading up to that Final Conflict.... Not quite Ragnarok. |

In this must-watch documentary, you'll learn:
•how Russia saved President Yanukovich of Ukraine •how Crimeans returning from revolution in Kiev tasted the the rage of the Right Sektor 'Maidan orcs' •how members of the Berkut police force escaped to Crimea and helped set up people's militias to defend the peninsula, not least by preventing Kiev military jets from landing at Sevastopol's airport •how these civilian militias defended against an organized takeover of the Crimean Parliament in Sevastopol •that most Crimean Tatars sided with the ethnic Russian population, despite efforts by the coup organizers to generate an ethnic split between them •how the militias came together to blockade repeated efforts by the 'Maidan orcs' (Right Sektor fascists) to enter the peninsula - by road, train and air •how the Crimean Referendum was enacted following near unanimous support from the people's representatives in the Crimean Parliament •how Berkut forces were joined by Kuban Cossacks from across the Black Sea region, including veterans of Russia's Afghan War, to defend Crimea from efforts by the new regime to send in weapons and explosives •how, having prevented Kiev from deploying 'Maidan orcs' via air, rail and road, Russia's Black Sea Fleet blockaded the Ukrainian navy from leaving its home port •how the Russian military placed the brand new Coastal Defence System 'Bastion-P' at locations along Crimea's southern coast. Once activated, the approaching USS Donald Cook Destroyer turned around at full-speed before Russian military jets chased the American warship south •how the 'Night Wolves' biker gang joined in the defence of Crimea in Yalta by kidnapping Ukrainian General Mikhail Koval and uncovering weapons caches left by the Ukies prior to the coup •how the Crimean citizen militias and Russian soldiers stationed in Sevastopol peacefully neutralized 20,000 Ukrainian forces stationed on the peninsula, many of whom then defected to Russia

The amount of sound and fury expressed by politicians about
a sensitive political deal, is inversely proportional to the extent
to which the deal is already done and dusted.
| Quote: | Israel to push Congress to pass bill to hamper Iran deal
Israel will try to persuade congressmen and senators to introduce a clause
stipulating that the deal with Iran should be seen as an international treaty
requiring senate ratification and not an agreement.
By Barak Ravid | Apr. 7, 2015 | haaretz.com |
There's gonna be lots of ass-covering
sound and fury in the weeks ahead.
However even Israel's Haretz newspaper admits:
| Quote: | The support of 67 senators is required to overturn a presidential veto.
Since only 54 senators are Republican, Israel must obtain the support of
13 Democratic senators for the move.
In the current situation, especially after P.M. Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech
in Congress, which brought Democratic senators closer to Obama, the
passage of such a bill with such a substantive clause and the overturn
of a presidential veto is a difficult, if not impossible, mission. |
And anyway, Moshe Kalon's neutering of Netanyahu
was mirrored by other moves to keep him sidelined:
| Quote: | One factor that has hurt Israel's ability to influence the framework agreement was the working assumption at the White House that Netanyahu and Israeli Ambassador to the U.S. Ron Dermer colluded with senior Republicans in Congress to thwart the deal.
Netanyahu's invitation to address Congress last month was viewed by the White House as unequivocal proof of this. Israel's actions in Congress against the deal led the White House to decide a few weeks ago to limit the scope and quality of information that the U.S. gives Israel on the negotiations with Iran. This, in order to prevent Netanyahu and Dermer from using this information to thwart the agreement. As result, Israel was surprised to learn of significant parts of the understandings reached between Iran and the world powers. |

Russia supplies S-300 Missile Wall to Iran as sanctions wither.
but
missiles will only be knocking drones out of the sky
https://medium.com/war-is-boring/a-drone-has-never-linked-up-with-a-tanker-until-now-9453016469c5
So we move into a continuous chaos of war where the military forces will be literally burning cash; this seems like a multi-player online war game with subscription and level fees. Addictive for those who need a violence fix.

In a March audio, we reported (see above) how Greek Prime Minister
Alexis Tsipras was grining ear to ear as he posed with his "Chinese pals"
one day after Gteek debt talks with the EUrocrats had been suspended.
The brinksmanship games continue:

Greece invited to join BRICS bank: govt source
AFP – 4 hours ago
Greece has been invited to become a member of the development bank
of the BRICS economies, including Russia and China, which is seeking to
become a counterweight to the IMF, a government source said Monday.
The invitation came during a telephone conversation between Greek
Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras and Russia's deputy finance minister
Sergei Storchak, the government source said in a note to the media.
This announcement came late Monday as Greece was meeting with its
eurozone partners in Brussels to try reach a deal with its EU-IMF creditors
that would release the 7.2 billion euros ($8 billion) remaining in its bailout
programme, which expires at the end of June.
Tsipras called the bank's invitation "a happy surprise" and expressed
interest, saying he would "study the proposal in detail," the statement
said.
The BRICS -- Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa -- had
announced last July that they were creating a new bank, based in
Shanghai, aimed at financing major infrastructure projects in emerging
countries. But it was also seen as a move to shake up global economic
governance, dominated by the International Monetary Fund and the
World Bank.
Greece's debt-wracked government is running out of cash and in
desperate need of the remaining bailout funds.
The IMF and its eurozone partners have conditioned the release of the
funds on Athens keeping to its reform pledges.
Negotiations have stalled as Tsipras, whose leftist Syriza party won
January elections, vows to stick to his anti-austerity campaign promises.
The Greek premier will discuss the BRICS bank with top representatives
at an economic forum in Saint Petersburg on June 18-20, the source
added.
