Schumer does this stuff on occassion. Maybe even more than occasion. He's from New York. 

Iran = Israel

There is no reason to worry about it, IF one is paying attention. But, who sits down to listen to the experts on our missile capacity?

Former U.S. military and State Department Officials (click here) participated in a series of panel discussions on modern missile technologies.

Missile technology is at the center of the USA defense. The USA has capacity beyond that and that capacity is important. But, the country has significant assets so long as they work and are staffed with people that actually do their job.

The event was very good. It raised some questions for me, but, I thought it was a really good idea. 

And this is about the Homeland, not the radicals in Israel. Israel's politics is too far to the right. I would think that would be obvious. It is interesting Israel should be this far right in the very same way the USA Republicans have become. Think that might be tied into one understanding about election monies? Yeah, I think so.

...The IAEA (click here) already has a presence in Iran. Yet it has been allowed to monitor only Iran's declared nuclear programs under agreements linked to Tehran's ratification of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty.
That is to change under any June deal.
Iran left the negotiating table in Lausanne, Switzerland, on Thursday with a commitment to implement the Additional Protocol, IAEA's most potent monitoring instrument. In effect in nearly 150 countries, that agreement is meant to allow IAEA experts nearly unfettered access " normally within a day or two " to any site within those nations that the agency suspects may be used for secret nuclear work.
For Washington, lessons learned from Iran's nuclear past made such an agreement indispensable as part of any deal....

Associated Press Vienna Bureau Chief George Jahn has covered Iran's nuclear program since 2002.
