Weak on Iran

[timesjoke]

Fresh on the heels of taking the toughest stand against our ally with Obama demanding Israel stop building homes even in areas that have never been included in any negotiations, today word has been leaked that Obama is backing down from very tough sanctions against Iran because Russia and China have refused to allow any big steps against Iran. Russia and China have together stated that they will not agree to any serious sanction increases and prefer to use small steps.

I don't know if Obama is doing this on purpose but it seems crazy to me that right after the Israeli Prime Minister rejected Obama's demand, that Obama is backing down on his support of strong sanctions on Iran.

I get the feeling that a showdown between Israel and Iran is comming very soon, and then what? Will Obama claim that Israel is the provocateur and not support them when they do act? Will there be a middle east war?

Just an odd lopsided opinion here with little to no merit: I can't speak for Russia, but I think China might be taking their position since the U.S. is already in the area. Pitting America in between a rock and a hard place as China's human shield. If American military might fails in the region, you might hear of China openly declaring themselves. Until then, our credit might still be good with the Chinese.

The Community Organizer in Chief should keep his big mouth shut. Then again, telling other people how to live is the core ethics lesson in Community Organizing 101.

As much as I believe in the scaling back of our forces all over the world, why can't we just shoot this Iranian dictator in the head? One bullet, clean and clear shot, and then shoot the next dictators until there is someone who can keep the peace. Approaching dictators with diplomacy only infuriates them and they lash out like spoiled little brats.

When I say "Obama should keep his mouth shut", I mean, that his mouth has opined one too many times to embarrass America.

The dictatorships all around the world already know that Obama is weak, that he is a compromiser, that he begs pardon for our previous indulgences. Obama's opinion is no more poignant than Stalin or Mussolini to the Free World.

America, whether you believe one way or the other, does not treat with dictators.

I just think it is interesting that when Israel refuses to do as ordered, Obama backs off of Iran.

You are of course right RO, Obama is weak and everyone knows it, Obama on the world stage is a joke, he should just stay at home where he can enjoy his feeling of power and stop making a fool of himself and America around the world with the way he treats friends as enimies and he speaks kindly to enimies.
