"To say this complicates the Obama administration's diplomatic outreach is to put it mildly. This administration -- in fairness, not unlike the last few years of the Bush administration -- seems prepared to make an endless series of concessions to Tehran in order to secure a peaceful resolution of the nuclear issue. Yet despite these repeated overtures, the Iranians refuse to budge even an inch and instead make announcements of more centrifuges and new missiles. Now they're launching airstrikes in Iraq."

Where the h$ll is our teleprompter when we need it?
Iran recognizes a gutless coward when it sees one.
And it sees one in the Oval Office.
The Iraqi Kurds are the equivalent of Taliban in Pakistan.
I don’t fault Iran for shelling the Kurd bad guys. They need to be put down
From what Sean Hannity has said...Obama’s Administration is to start a Say it and Claim it type front. they will say everything is good...therefore people will percieve it is good!!!! Begin to notice “good news” about everything starting to come up in the news!!! ITS ALL GOOD..BECAUSE THE KING SAYS IT IS!
These are probably targeted at the Kurdish PKK. They’re a Marxist terrorist group pushing for Kurdish independence and is a thorn in the side of Turkey and Iraq. Nobody likes the PKK. Not even Iran.
Although Kurds are ethnically related to Persians, they’re *Sunnis* not Shi’ites like the Iranians. It all comes down to sectarianism.
Kurdistan of course extends into Turkey and Iran.
That's the main reason that Turkey would not let us enter Iraq through their country [nice ally].
Free Kurdistan!
Between this, the meltdown in Pakistan, and Russia threatening Georgia once again I would say Obama’s foreign policy and his ability to run the war is going just about as I expected. The leaders of other countries- especially the troubled ones know he is weak and they will continue to do as they please.
Please pray for our military- they desperately need our prayers.
Maybe the Obamas will get a cat now. That’ll fix things.
Makes sense then that Obama would want to immulate Lenin as much possible. Thanks for the post. I always learn so much from my fellow FReepers.
Thanks! Will pray for your mom...mine is just a post-surgery followup (had surgery April 2) and should just be a few minutes or so, no biggie (except wagging the twins and their giant stroller takes the longest amount of time, LOL!)
As far as HolyO goes, I think when this administration comes to an end (and part of me feels like it won’t last the full term before the majority of Americans rise up in protest to his anti-American actions) we are going to find a lot of collusion going on in the background between his puppetmaster, him, and these dictatorial countries he’s so friendly with!
Part of me hopes that the investigation then will be known as “The Specter Commission”, LOL! :-)
Did you know that the Jews are more closely related to the Kurds than to any other Middle Eastern people ?
Abraham left that part of the Middle East, Ur, to go to the land that God showed him, present day Israel.
The KUrds were promised a homeland as part of the WWI treaties (like the Balfour Declaration), but it has never been accomplished.
The Kurds and the Israelis should make a secret alliance.
In part the question is resolved in the context that Iran is itself a terrorist nation and Turkey is not...........
That’s a great cartoon—I hadn’t seen it before.
“Please pray for our military- they desperately need our prayers.”
Don’t worry...I pray for our troops everyday and every night. Especially since ZERO was installed. I fear for them(with Obama as the CIC) as much as I do our country’s safety now.
Don’t forget that N. Korea is acting up and Chavez, Cuba and Ortega are looking for an opening to screw our country as well now that Zero is running things. I have probably left some other country out as well.
UR.........well that makes the Arabs equally related to the Kurds since Abraham is the father of Ishmaiel via Haggar.
Yeah that's what I want my president and vp spending their time on: burger runs.
