President Shimon Peres said that he believes that U.S. President Barack Obama will attack Iran’s nuclear facilities if diplomatic efforts fail.

“I have no doubt that if diplomatic talks fail with Iran and Tehran doesn't stop accelerating its nuclear development—U.S. President Barack Obama will conduct a military attack against Iran,” Peres told the Israel Hayom newspaper this week, in an interview ahead of Israel’s 65th Independence Day next week. …

Western nations have “tried their utmost to prevent Iran from going nuclear, but Iran has gone nuclear,” Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said in a speech on Tuesday. …

Obama and his clique of leftists are politically very savvy. If things are going south for them on the domestic front, there is always a chance they’d view attacking Iran more favorable. Everything is politics for this crew. Everything. They don’t utter a word without thinking of the political ramifications.

I can certainly see a scenario in mid 2014 where Obamacare is failing and the Democrats face losing the Senate. Attacking Iran and rallying the American people might look very tempting for them.

the wonderful USAF could eliminate the Irani threat to America, Europe, Israel and the Arab states... in about 2 days’ work. They have the pilots, the planes, and the bases ringing Iran. But instead, they have been effectively functioning as the shield in the way of anybody else taking this very serious threat out. So, the Islamicists will soon acquire the nuclear ICBM’s they so covet ...

Political talk is cheap. And so often nowadays, just a pack of lies anyway. Either the USAF does the job, or it does not. Either the crazies get their nuclear ICBMs or they don’t. That is the bottom line.

Diplomacy won't fail. Obama never fails!

Iran will mock us, ignore any sanctions, proceed with their nuke-building, taunt us militarily, threaten us, impugn our Christianity -- you name it.

But Obama will proclaim his diplomatic efforts to be hugely successful and the lapdogs will report what a swell guy he is.

Then, someday, we will have our Gomer Pyle moment with Iran, just as we had with North Korea today. They ALREADY HAVE their nukes! Su-priiiise, su-priiiiise!!!!

With John Kerry at the helm and Obama calling the shots behind the scenes, what could possibly go wrong?

Here is how the story will roll:
Mr. Soetoro would LIKE to attack Iran, but due to the sequester, he can't, and that's the Republicans' fault.

I think zero would indeed attack... with spitballs.

The only question remaining, does Iran have defenses against spitballs?

Peres is stupid. If DC let North Korea and Pakistan get the bomb, it has to let Iran get the bomb.

Peres is himself an embarrassment. And a serious liability. But he “knows the leftist/progressivist/communist/socialist lingo” and is thus seen by some, not yours truly, as having some utility. I understand “we want to kill you all” lingo without need of translation by Peres. Well past time he retired, and he can take olmert and Livni with him I think.

I wish I had your confidence. As a patriotic, Constitution-supporting, law-abiding American, I will be amazed if Obama makes it through the next three years without launching unprovoked attacks on people just like me. But if you mean Obama isn't going to attack his allies in Tehran, then I agree with you.

The only way Obama would ever attack Iran is if they all converted to Christianity or Judaism.

No doubt Obama will attack Americans like you and I, the proof of that is that he hasn’t stopped attacking us since the idiots of this country elected him.

But he isn’t going to attack and Communists or Muslims.

He is one of them.
