WASHINGTON (AFP) – The Obama administration poured cold water Monday on any notion it is giving Israel the green light to attack Iran or that it is reconsidering plans to engage diplomatically with the Islamic republic.

I forgot about Egypt, tho I know their sub went thru the Suez Canal. I knew that the Saudis said they would look the other way if their air space was ever flown over (wink, wink).

"Ok? Everyone understand now? They’re both right.

Exactly!

That's how they want to play it. It's called covering all your bases, and when they are called on any "inconstancy" they can claim that, "well now: your taking that out of context. What I meant was....".

Double speak 101

After all; if you can't dazzle em with brilliance, ya gotta baffle em with B.S!

Speaking of GPS.
I would not be surprised if when Israel does attack Iran that the GPS system gets shut down or tampered with by order of the commander in chief. This will be to foul up GPS guidance by Israeli weapons.

The ISraeli’s are way ahead of odumbo. You can bet their pilots will have multiple ways of identifying their assigned targets.

Biden so it turns out is not dumb, only honest and candid. When the swine flu a few months ago seemed like it was taking off dangerously worldwide, Biden said that optional flying in an airplane wouldn’t be the most prudent thing in the world to do and that he’d say the same to his own family. Then, too, Obama distanced himself from Biden and laid him on the tarmac for speaking plain common sense.

The only thing that is holding them back is our Islamic ass kissing president. And even that wont hold it back when push comes to shove. Netanyahu's the man!

Sadly they'll take out the Saudi oil fields, which are within easy reach of their missiles.

Or send in suicide bombers (lots of Shi-ites inside Sunni Saudi Arabia.

This kind of plan already exists in retaliation for an Israeli attack. The attack would have to be extremely destructive to prevent local mayhem and detruction in the region.

On the other hand, the most painful retaliation for us will be soft underbelly attacks by suiciders all over the USA. Bad for us some good destruction of our country from Oba-Hussein’s eyes.

I don’t think the Saudis would have winked at Israel without a plan of their own in place. Maybe Israel will help guard the Saudi oil fields.

OK so maybe it’s a Yellow light.

Some people, when they approach a Yellow light, SPEED UP!
