Obama Punk'd Again by Iran: Does He WANT Them to Get The Bomb?

Any 3-year-old knows the difference between a parent shouting “one, two…….” and never getting to “three” versus grandpa who doesn’t put up with bad behavior, but it seems the Obama administration got bested by a toddler.

Iran nuclear talks will continue “for the next couple of days,” a senior European diplomat said, effectively extending a Tuesday deadline set just a week ago.

“We are still working very hard to finalize this agreement,” European Union foreign policy chief, Frederica Mogherini, told reporters outside the Vienna hotel where negotiators have held near round-the-clock sessions. “We continue to work on the text.”

Mogherini said she did not consider Tuesday a negotiating deadline, although that was the date set last week for expiration of the 2013 interim agreement that froze Iran’s nuclear program and provided limited sanctions relief while a permanent deal was sought.

Just a week ago, Obama threatened to “walk away” from nuclear talks with Iran.
"My hope is they can achieve an agreement," Obama said.

But he added that, "I've said from the start, I will walk away from the negotiations if in fact it's a bad deal."

It is, in fact, a bad deal.  It has been a bad deal.  It was a bad deal in March, when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said it was a bad deal.  It was a bad deal six months before that, and it was a bad deal last July, when we were talking deadlines.

July turned into November, which turned into March, which turned into June 30, which turned into July, and Secretary of State John Kerry’s team still haven’t got to “three.”

We have to ask the question: who does it benefit for the talks to drag on, while Iran continues making more bomb-grade nuclear material?  Who does it benefit when Iran suddenly decides to back away from any inspections, never mind the unannounced “snap” inspections we’ve been calling for?

Obama said the inspections cannot just consist of "declarations" from Iran and "a few inspectors wandering around every once in a while." He said there has to be a "serious, rigorous verification mechanism" to make sure Iran is complying with the terms of any deal.

Obama suggested that Iran was in fact backtracking from its initial commitments in a framework announced earlier this year. Amid concerns about Iran's latest positions, a senior State Department official said the P5+1 negotiators, along with Iran, have decided to extend the deadline until July 7, "to allow more time for negotiations to reach a long-term solution."

Guess what?  Iran hasn’t backed away from its backing away, and July 7 is here.
[mc_name name='Sen. David Perdue (R-GA)' chamber='senate' mcid='P000612' ], R-Ga., said: "It's no surprise that yet again, President Obama and Iran's negotiators have failed to meet the June 30 deadline for a deal on the future of Iran's nuclear program. Every step of the way, Iran has refused to accept reasonable terms, and instead, is moving dangerously closer to a nuclear weapon."
But this is all talk.  Words.  Even the pro-Obama Washington Post published House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s call for Obama to just walk away.
A bad deal would also take the Iranian regime at its word that it isn’t cheating on its nuclear commitments. International inspectors must have “anywhere, anytime” access to the Iranian sites they need to visit, including military and other sensitive facilities. The United States should not grant Iran veto power over international inspectors. The Iranian regime’s refusal to submit to intrusive inspections would be a telling indicator that it intends to continue its deception.
More words.

Like a 3-year-old with his hand in the cookie jar, while mom and dad count, Iran just smiles and continues munching on cookies—or in this case build a bomb.

After all the questioning “why not walk away?” there’s just one question remaining:  why would Obama want Iran to have a nuclear bomb?  Because that’s exactly what he’s doing.

Yes he wants them to get the bomb. It’s only “fair” and they are his people.

Of course he does, at the behest of VJ (the true power behind the throne)...

That’ll be a big ol’ YES!

After what the administration has done “negotiating” this, there is no other conceivable answer.

ValJar, a supreme Muslim sympathizer (her parents are Iranian), negotiated the entire deal with the Iranians. Kerry gets his walking papers from her.

Obama was not punked by Iran. This was exactly what he intended to happen. Not only does he want them to have the bomb, he will do every thing in his power to see that they get it. I would not doubt him furnishing them with the material to make them and the technicians to assemble them. I only hope that the first one they send over here hits Washington, D.C. and the second hits NBC's headquarters.

Obama simply doesn’t care. He actually believes that it doesn’t really matter.

There are no bad deals to him, so walking away is not an option. He just lies that it is.

When Iran gets the bomb a Sunni Moslem takes care of two imperatives at once, the main Shia nation and the Jews. In the best possible situation, and probably seen as inevitable, Iran throws nukes at Israeli cities and the IDF retaliates from its subs and other resources. Israel is decapitated and Iran begins to glow and is uninhabitable. Israel is then prey to its neighbors.
Possible flies in the ointment are the likelihood that Israel has anti-missile capability we know not yet of or that Iran launches its strike against DC and NY. The second possibility would not distress the Sunni a lot so long as he receives forewarning to enable him to be playing golf somewhere else.
If the last possibility eventuates then the major obstacle to the Islamicization of the world, or at least Europe and the Americas will have been maimed. The Sunni would not permit a nuclear response and his thoroughly purged and personally loyal military would obey.

I disagree.

Barry Hussein does care. His friends are our enemies, his enemies are our friends. He's a queer, and a mohammedan, and a communist. Everything he does is intended to benefit his friends (our enemies), to damage his enemies (our friends), and most of all to damage these United States of America. For President Soetoro, nuclear weapons in the hands of the Mad Mullahs of Iran constitutes victory.

The only explanation that makes sense is that Obama wants Iran to have nuclear weapons. What we know of the tentative deal is that it guarantees an Iranian bomb in the long term and also make it more likely in the very short term. And there is more to Teheran’s plan than to attack Israel and perhaps the United States. In a struggle for domination of Islam itself, Iran is currently engaged in a pincer campaign to surround and destroy its Sunni rival, Saudi Arabia. Mecca’s days may be numbered.

Well, I guess we will simply have to disagree. Foreign policy is simply an unwanted distraction for Mr. Obama. He is focused on changing this nation and feeding his own growing ego. I m inclined to believe that he will not finish his term and will leave in disgrace....due to a major economic crisis and a few other problems. Time will tell...

Pray for our nation with great seriousness and commitment.

Will Clown Prince nobama be “sorry” when Iran uses a nuclear bomb to murder millions? Will the occasion be marked by a hashtag from his grifter wife, Moocher?

HE KNOWS THESE ENTITIES CONTROL BILLIONS OF DOLLARS---HE'S AIMING TO GET A CHUNK OF IT Measure Obama's blathering against the back-drop of his two foundation (two that we know of---as the Obamas get ready for the big Foundation payday.... ala the Clintons. When Obama says " ISIS will be won with ideas not guns"....he has visions of million dollar honoraria dancing in his fool head.

GAG-A-RAMA Obama recently bragged that, “today, once again, the US is the most respected country on earth.”

<><> So it doesn’t matter Putin continues his invasion of Ukraine....

<><> Or that China knows it can continue grabbing key sea areas, building vast artificial islands on which to plant its flag (and weapons).

<><> Or that Bashar al-Assad is back to using chemical weapons, because Obama won't enforce his own “red line.”

<><> or that Iran is already breaking the “interim” US nuclear deal by building enriched-uranium stockpiles far larger than it promised.

<><> Iraq? In the same breath, Obama talks of how “we were able to end two wars."

=========================================

Obama learned from the Clintons how to get a big payday for his two foundations: look on w/ approval even if countries invade and depopulate.....and never e-v-e-r utter a discouraging word e-v-e-r.

Maybe even shake hands w/ foreign tyrants to get mining permits and million dollar honorariums as Clinton did in Kazakhstan.

======================================

How well Obama learned at the knee of Hillary when she was Obama's Secy of State. At that time the "State Dept Mission Statement" mentioned that it would "create a more secure, democratic, and prosperous world for the benefit of the American people and the international community."

(Well, profitable for the Clinton Foundation, anyway.)

Now it looks like that "prosperous world" is gonna happen, thanks to Obama's two foundations (/snix).
