Someone should dig up that video of Obama saying that Iran is not a serious threat to the U.S.
Cynically calculated. One year is far enough so in 6 months everyone will forget he said that.
every few months the same old line “one year till iran nuke”. well its been about ten years worth of these “few months” don’t believe any of it anymore. its sole purpose is to fund the military during budget cuts and to give obama an easy out on the economy. War, prepping for war...... all a bunch of lies. If iran couldn’t build a simple nuke after 30+ years of trying then they never will. Muslims are just too backward to do it themselves.
According to various government officials, Iran has been 1 year away from a nuclear weapon for the last 9 years.
You should get thee to the Pentagon ASAP. Obviously the combined G-2 of the Joint Chiefs have not considered this danger.
Sheesh.
That statement is of course a bit of hyperbole. However it is meant to underscore a few observation. Under Obama the JCOS seem to behave as politically correct careerists out to serve their perceived whims of the current administration. For example the JCOS “recommended” to the Sec of Defense that all combat roles be open to women, or that the Commander of US forces in Afghanistan when confronted with the murder of his troops by their Afghan “allies” comes out with a manual that American soldiers must become more accepting and sensitive to the homosexual practices of Afghans to prevent misunderstandings. These senior generals and admirals seem to be adept politically shooled careerists rather than warriors. The Chinese in the 1990’s developed the best shore to ship missile system in order to keep the Taiwan Strait clear of hostile capital ships in the event of war with the ROC. That has always been a prime objective and strategic concern to China. There is no doubt the Chinese (who despise American presence, influence and meddling in Asia) have been aiding Iran.Iran did not down and capture that drone on its own. Iran has such confidence about its ability to close the Gulf, there is little doubt they have been armed with these missiles. And yes, do not put it passed the arrogance and of the Obama administration to put those ships in harms way. History is full of such ploys and tragic blunders. And yes it would be a bit archaic to expect today’s senior officer careerists to have a few principled resignations before the actual orders sending those ships into the Gulf were tendered. And yes certainly hope these “observations” are all wrong.
“According to various government officials, Iran has been 1 year away from a nuclear weapon for the last 9 years.”
Wow, the God of goverment has the control of time almost like my God.
Obama said the same thing Chamberlain said, only this year in the SOTU speech. How creepy is that? Was he even thinking about what he was saying . . . ?
If he’s saying “one year” right now, that means they already have working bombs.
>> I smell an election year (2014) crisis coming on......
bump
So, in one year, Obaba is going to blow his rape whistle?
And Biden is going to shoot his shotgun out his back porch?
If I didn’t think he was utterly EVIL
I would say he was having a Neville Chamberlain moment.
So, Obastard says a year. Given his track record for prognostication, I’d say that puts Tel Aviv nuked about Wednesday of next week.
He’s lying, as usual. If Zero says that Iran is a year away from having nuke capability... that translates into ....Iran is already there and the US and Israel are in deep stuff right now. But naturally, Zero would want to give Iran a little more time to get that deliverability issue perfected.
Somehow I don’t think Obama will take any serous action until seconds before his City is blown to kingdom come.
Iran will have a nuke. North Korea already has a nuke. obama is hoping for an attack so he can declare martial law and Michelle can start yelling “Let them eat cake!”
I don’t remember. You may be right.
All options “are on the table”, and will stay on the table.
Obama is saying “one year”, as if he knows something no one else does, is careful to drop in the line “consulting with Bibi, as I have done for several years on this issue”,
in order to establish that they will both share responsibility for WHATEVER Iran does, when he knows full well what it is that Israel would like to do, to save itself.
The “one-year” framework is basically nothing more than a handy device both to buy time and a comfortable zone for keeping his fingers in the pie, making it look like he’s riding the long, slow wave of “developments” as they issue from Iran, and playing it by his all-hearing ear, like any great leader would be obligated to do.
