Obama says no military solution to Iran nuclear program (Israeli TV Interview)
Times of Israel ^ | June 1, 2015, 1:13 pm EDT

Posted on 06/01/2015 10:55:51 AM PDT by Dave346

US President Barack Obama tells Channel 2 in an interview that he can “demonstrate” that a “verifiable” agreement with Iran will be the best way to contain Tehran’s nuclear ambitions.

“I can, [I] think, demonstrate, not based on any hope but on facts and analysis, that the best way to prevent Iran from having a nuclear weapon is a verifiable tough agreement. A military solution will not fix it, even if the United States participates. It would temporarily slow down an Iranian nuclear program but it would not eliminate it,” he says.

Asked whether Israel may attempt a military strike without notifying the US, Obama says, “I won’t speculate on that. What I can say is, to the Israeli people: I understand your concerns and I understand your fears.”

The full interview with the US president will be aired on Tuesday.

What a completely ignorant statement.

***************
The statement is an accurate reflection of the source. Obama does not live in the real world.

"What I can say is, to the Israeli people: I understand your concerns and I understand your fears."

Yes, this is the case, given that your top adviser was born in Israel, and has family connections there.

... oh wait, got the wrong country... I meant Iran.

Apparently he hasn't heard of one of these?

“Ludicrous.
OF COURSE there is a military solution.”

Just shows the level of stupid in the White House, these days.

To quote Machiavelli, “War is the ultimate diplomacy”. The ultimate way of bringing someone to “your point of view”.

To discount the use of military force, is to tell the Iranians that they don’t HAVE to make a deal, unless the terms for them are outstanding.

He has a solution not mentioned. He’s leading from behind while Iran gets the power to nuke Israel.

The UN plans for the Middle East to be a Muslim “State.” The man has no loyalties and does not care about human life. He’s dark as heck.

”A military solution will not fix it, even if the United States participates”.

That's odd.. He seemed quite eager to bomb the cr@p out of Libya. So much so he completely bypassed Congress in doing so. Libya is a total MESS now. ISIS has a foothold there TOO.

It’ll take at LEAST 2 YEARS to fix the damage done to our military by 0dungo (and our relationship with foreign participants such as Israel) before undertaking any action against Iran.

Absolute PROOF that Obama is a MUSLIM president who is running interference for his RADICAL MUSLIM brothers around the globe, while he dismantles and destroys America.

If we don't get off our a$$. and SOON, Radical Islam is going to have as strong a hold as NAZISM of the 1940's.

Keep in mind it took every man, woman, and child on the face of the earth 4 1/2 years to tell Hitler he was WRONG.

My point: We can only sit on our a$$ for so long.

"Obama says no military solution to Iran nuclear program (Israeli TV Interview)"

That's what Robert Gates and the top Admiral said before 2009. Too much pressure from constituents who want absolute market stability regardless of consequences. Both political parties are corrupt.
