TEL AVIV (Dispatches) – The occupying regime of Israel’s prime minister Yair Lapid took off for Germany on Sunday, in his latest campaign to persuade Western powers to ditch a nuclear deal with Iran. Meeting his cabinet before flying to Berlin, Lapid thanked these three powers for the “strong position” they had voiced in a tripartite statement on Saturday. Lapid told his cabinet that “Israel is conducting a successful diplomatic campaign to stop the nuclear agreement and prevent the lifting of sanctions on Iran. “It is not over yet,” he added. “There is still a long way to go, but there are encouraging signs.”
