Illustrated   Malcolm Hoenlein, @conf_of_pres, Conference of Presidents, in re: Iran says it will end snap IAEA inspections unless it gets the deal it wants from Biden. A violation of the JCPOA and an insult to the Europeans who’ve been favoring the JCPOA.  A potentially explosive game, up February 21.  UN inspectors have found radioactive races and new sites.   . . . Biden took the Houthis, Iranian proxies, off the terrorist list. In Yemen, 30,000 people have been killed.    Turkey is fighting in Iraq vs the PKK—shot Kurds in the head in a cave. Turkey sends jets over Kurdish territory.   Israel’s air strikes against Damascus: another Iranian provocation and aggression.  It does so also in Ethiopia and Sudan.   More than 7,000 rockets; Hezbollah has a 30,000 standing army, very sophisticated arms.  Also Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Lavrov: if the EU decides  it's necessary to restore relati9ns, we’ll be ready; but if he EU goes ahead with sanctions because of the Navalny attempted murder, Russia will break relations.   The EU always backs down—“They march backwards”— but sometimes they have spine concerning human rights.  Today the UAE ambassador was sworn in to Israel, and Morocco is shopping for an embassy in Jerusalem.      Iron Dome deployed permanently around Israel.  Very serious concern about the War in the North.
