This isn't the 1st time the US has had disagreements and falling outs with an ally, and it won't be the last..
As for the AIPAC, F*#k them and all the other lobbies and lobbyists in DC.. Them and their money are doing long term harm to this country..All they and their money care about is NOW, not the future.. I hope there is a special place in hell for all of them, and their whores in the government who take their money.

Wow that sounds a lot like the whole "If we let Iran have nuclear weapons they'll give them to terrorists" stories we heard leading up to... Iraq.
And of course it makes perfect sense that Iran's going to build nuclear weapons and then use them on Israel. Hey, if the Palestinians, Jordanians, Syrians and Egyptians have to eat that fallout hey no biggie bro.
What's actually going on here is you're seeing the people of AIPAC embrace the bellicose, war-or-nothing attitude of the neocons and now the tea party droolers in the U.S. So of course they're going to turn on somebody like Wasserman or anybody else who doesn't follow them over the cliff. For being an "appeaser," I'm guessing?
See, what's funny is that you always find out whether people want actual peace by giving them a chance to get it. It certainly showed us once and for all how much Arafat didn't want it when he walked away from the best chance he was ever going to get.
Now, after driving Iran to the bargaining table using non-bombing means, AIPAC and the American right wing want to use bombing to drive them to the bargaining table. That they're already at. Such is the insanity of these morons and warmongers who seem to not grasp the reality that the U.S. record for military interventions in the region is one of decades-long failure and that choosing war by choice with a powerhouse with Iran isn't going to be some fun video game like it was back during Desert Storm when we crushed Saddam's pathetic army.
So there's that and the little thing called oil, which will probably jump up to around $400/bbl at least should we set off a war that features Iran. That ought to put a bullet in the head of the already staggering American economy.
Great ideas all around, boys. Let's keep being pushed into wars by a bunch of pantywaist right-wingers who talk the talk and otherwise by people who don't want to upset AIPAC because they're afraid it will cost them Florida in the next election.
Let's base our decisions on that. Yeah.

Well just as I suspected, you're selling us the idea that we must attack Iran now because inevitably what they're going to do is nuke us and Israel.
You're right: we don't want the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud...
