Something seems amiss here. Its unlikely Obama would willingly murder his Islamic bretheren. The guys been cozying up to these people since he got into office. I want to know how this benefits him, not America, but him. I’m tending to think the disaster on the economy here a war would produce is the kind of benefit he would be looking for. I think, to steal Forbes’s line, that Obama wants to pound America back into the Stone Age.
Remember though that the Saudi’s are Obama’s benefactors and from all appearances the Saudi’s want the current Iranian regime gone. I don’t think Obama has the spine to do it and I shudder to think how many of our soldiers he would get killed with his ridiculous ROE’s. Obama is the wrong leader to take this country to a war as important as this one will be. He will screw it up royally (probably on purpose). He hates our country and everything it stands for.
I agree that it’s highly unlikely that Obama would attack or even fight against any Islamic country.
I think, judging from the things that he’s said and his actions, that he is putting this in place basically to prevent Israel from striking Iran or any other Muslim country.
Attacks on Israel have been more frequent because the Muslims are emboldened by Obama’s obvious sympathy with their side. At some point, the Israeli’s are going to have to fight back, and I think you’re going to see our forces basically being put in the position of defending the Muslims, from whatever country they may be.
