However war with Iran will not be the surprise. Obama has no history of starting war with any country controlled by Islamists.
“Starting a war against Islamic country” may be technically correct however he has continued the Bush doctrine in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The war against Iran has already started. So far it is only covert. If we succesfully take out their nuclear capability quietly, without starting an allout war (as I think is the plan), then Obama will crow his success to boost his numbers. If we are not successful then our action will be ignored. I don’t think he is “enough of a Muslim” to deter him from killing Muzzies, it doesn’t deter the average terrorist bomber.
