President Obama and Prime Minister Netanyahu spoke today as part of their regular consultations, and to follow up on Secretary Clinton’s meeting with the Prime Minister. The two leaders discussed a range of security issues, and the President reaffirmed his and our country’s unshakeable commitment to Israel’s security. The two leaders underscored that they are in full agreement on the shared goal of preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. The Prime Minister welcomed President Obama’s commitment before the United Nations General Assembly to do what we must to achieve that goal. The two leaders took note of the close cooperation and coordination between the Governments of the United States and Israel regarding the threat posed by Iran – its nuclear program, proliferation, and support for terrorism – and agreed to continue their regular consultations on this issue going forward.

A solid candidate for Empty Statement of the Year

B. Hussein Obama probably cut the call short in order to get in some prayer mat time facing Mecca.

Mr.Netanyahu.... Obama will stab you in the back, then blame it on you. Do not trust this Marxist Kenyan.

[penelopesire]

So Obama is not in favor of clear cut red lines for Iran but has no problem setting arbitrary withdrawal dates for our soldiers in foreign conflicts.

Does anyone else find that incongruent?

I hope Bibi implements his plan that vaporizes Iran and cuts Ubama off at the knees.

Dip$hit Obama just guaranteed an Israeli strike, one that might need to involve the use of nukes. He’s made it very, very plain that he’ll do nothing except yammer on and on until his next golf game or meeting with Pimp with a Limp, and screw Israel if they don’t like it. The problem, from Israel’s point of view, is that they have to GUARANTEE that if they strike Iran, not only is Iran’s nuke program dead for a decade or more, but that Iran can’t get up and strike Israel with dozens or hundreds of heavy-payload missiles. They cannot afford a long war, and they can’t count on the support of anyone else in the region. Thus, the only solution is to use nukes - preferably with an EMP strike that wipes out Iran’s electrical production and destroys most of their computers.

This is on YOUR hands, Barry Bathhouse.

I wonder why Romney hasn’t said “If I am elected, the red line is a done deal.”

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Like Dennis Miller said, Bibis agent got him booked on The View so he could talk to Obama, but only during the commercials.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Because the leftist propaganda machine that poses as our media would accuse him of being a war monger.

[EBH]

Well...actually that is just awesome. In the debate Romney can hammer him on just...what exactly is your policy stance on Iran ....Mr. Obama?

[Evil Slayer]

Look, you skinny neck kenyan. I could care less what you think. Since you can't even take the time of day to see me face to face, you can just go and shove it where the sun don't shine. Israel will do what we have to do whether you like it or not. I will call the shots on Iran. You can keep calling the shots on the golf course since that's all you do anyway. You back stabbing loser.

I...auh....dua.......well I auh........ummmmmmmmmm....hey....I....auh.......did you just hang up?........will someone help me?

Do you think Obama might be lying?

[apoliticalone]

The only thing Americans should be concerned about is defense and foreign policy and defending our own borders that is in the USA interest.

Other countries are relevant only if their citizens pay Americans for their own defense. We Americans are foolishly stuck paying who have much less debt per capita than the USA. It must end. Our Congress needs to be a puppet to USA citizens not other countries.

An empty statement for an empty suit..

[wastedyears]

I doubt Obama could have a civil conversation with Netanyahu.

[PLD]

Lets get one thing straight..Idiot and Chief is not a leader..Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is the only real leader that attended the UN meeting..

Now how would Obama know anything about the Iranians and the red line..of how long it will take before Iran devils finish the bomb..Obama has been on permanent vacation and has not attended security meetings..So don't call this moron a leader..

"To: kingattax I wonder why Romney hasn’t said “If I am elected, the red line is a done deal.”

How do you know he hasn't?
