There's no way the Obama administration meant to send this signal.

I read it as an invitation to Iran to make a pre-emptive strike....which has been threatened many times.

Why not say...."The US is always looking for peaceful means to settle affairs......

Really? Suppose, just suppose they are finally waking up to the fact Israel simply will ignore the Husseins “warnings” and do what it must to protect it’s people? Rather then look like folls once again for being turned down/ignored (remember request for more troops from European “friends”?), the Odumbo admin now will say it was never against an Iraeli attack to protect itself, thereby hoping the morons around the world by into there crap one more time.

You notice he did not say the US would help the Israelis!

LMAO. Is this for real? Did he really say that? In other words, we don't want to meddle in their violent suppression of peaceful protestors, we don't want to tell them what to do, but if Israel wants to attack them that's ok too, because hey, we HAVE no foreign policy -- none at all!

0bama, it's 3 am and that dingaling you hear is not the ice cream truck, it's your vice-president.

Obama’s father was a Sunni, and Obama’s public support towards Muslims has been mostly directed towards Sunni’s. Wahhabist/Muslim Brotherhood types of Muslims hate Shias and Iran, and would be joyful if they were attacked by Israel.

You say one thing in public and do another in private. I am sure they have called and made clear they are opposed to any action. It was basically a non-answer.

If anyone reads what Biden said carefully, he is not expressing an OPINION or the administration’s viewpoint at all, only a fact......Israel is a sovereign nation.

He doesn’t say anything in there about we won’t stop, we won’t tell them not to do it etc.

He only said Israel has the right to do what it feels is necessary, NOT THAT WE WON’T INTERFERE....

This could be a warning to Iran that they better strike soon because Israel is no longer taking orders from the WH.
