NBC’s Richard Engel: Israel, Arab Nations Forming ‘Alliance’ Against U.S. - Iran Nuclear Agreement



Breitbart: NBC’s Engel: Arab World United with Israel Against Any Iran Nuke Deal

Thursday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” NBC News chief foreign correspondent Richard Engel said he has the unique perspective of bouncing between the Arab and Israel world and is stunned how they are united in opposition to a nuclear agreement with Iran.

Engel said the deal is “not going to go over well at all.”

“We had a unique perspective because we’ve been bouncing between the Muslim world and going over to Israel,” Engel said. “We’re seeing an alliance—both the Sunni and Arab states—and traditional big U.S. allies and Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, all saying this is a bad deal, that the process rewards Iran. And Israel saying the exact same thing. And it is not very often in the Middle East where you have Israel and the Arab world singing off the same song sheet, but this time when it comes to Iran, they most certainly are.”

WNU Editor: Engel is probably right in his analysis .... but I doubt that I will be seeing any public displays of this "alliance" soon.
