SACHS: Biden Admin Has Rejected Iran's Overtures for Peace for Past 2 Years
Netanayhu's ultimate goal is getting the U.S. to go to war for Israel in Iran
Jeffery Sachs, the Columbia economist, told Judge Andrew Napolitano’s “Judging Freedom” podcast that Iran has tried to seek peace with the Biden administration for the past two years, but has been rejected.
Sachs said these overtures by Tehran have not been reported, but its government has “repeatedly” reached out to Washington stating that it wants peace, it is willing to negotiate, and it does not want a nuclear weapon.
“And the U.S. turned to Israel and said, ‘What do you think?’ And Israel’s response is, ‘Well, they’re weak. They’re obviously weak. They’re obviously suffering. Turn up the pressure. Turn the screws on them.’ In other words, we don’t know how to take yes for an answer in this county… especially the neocons,” he said. “Especially Israel. Israel doesn’t want peace. Israel wants military victory, and it has made a wasteland as a result of this.”

Sachs said his sources were leading Iranian officials and top intermediaries.
The Trends Journal emailed the State Department for comment.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Iranians in a video message in September that they will be free soon “and that moment will come a lot sooner than people think.”
TRENDPOST: Netanyahu has one ambition and it is not to “free” the Iranian people. He wants to keep his extremist coalition in power and expand a greater Israel by stealing more Palestinian land. The U.S. is fully committed to support Israeli genocide and its attacks into Syria. Thus, Netanyahu knows that he can drag the U.S. into a wider war in the region because of the power that the Israel Lobby has in Washington.
Sachs said this is the big question for the incoming Trump administration.
“An American president would do something completely different,” he said. “Netanyahu’s after something that is not in America's interest… I don't think it's in Israel's interest, either.”
