If you meet with Obama, he’ll bow to you. :D
After Putin had his way with Obama, who wants sloppy seconds?
El-Presidente has been dealing with evil people all his life. The problem is that his dealings have all been with them as mentors or fellow travelers. Now, as El-Presdidente he has to deal with them on the other side of the table. This he is not used to. Always before evil has recognized him as a fellow traveler, indeed he is a fellow traveler in the desire to forever destroy the concepts of freedom and upward economic mobility in the world. However his foreign opponents don’t share all his ideals and have their own agendas. Most notably THEY each want to be at the top of the world ruling class, not be subject to his dictates.
Now he has opponents that have the same lack of morals as he does. He has opponents that also believe the end justifies the means. He has opponents that won’t cower at the threat of being called a racist. He has opponents that are also ruthless immoral people, willing to be as nasty as he is. He has opponents that are also willing to make things up and demand that everyone accept their lies as truth. He’s never had to deal with that on the OTHER side of the table! People doing these things have always been on his side!
This is why he is always outclassed and out maneuvered in the foreign policy front. I think that to this day he is still baffled as to why foreign leaders don’t cower at his feet like Republicans do.
It has been unclear, to me at least, whether Obama really sided with the Sunnis or the Shiites. But that changed drastically when he came out with his crazy plan to bomb Syria. That was a strong indication that he had decided to come out against the Shiites.
Does Obama think he can try to take Syria from the Shiites and hand it over to the Sunni terrorists, make threats against Iran as well, and then have a hand-shaking photo-op with the President of Iran?
Over the course of his rule, Obama has managed to offend just about every country on earth. They have many reasons to dislike him, and fewer and fewer reasons to fear him.
So its hardly surprising that the President of Iran has seized this opportunity to insult him. Just getting a bit of his own back from all the insults and provocations running the other way.
” - - - That sure is a new one . . . grappling with anti-Americanism? - - - “
It is one thing to not want to shake Obama’s hand, something that most of us on FR would agree with.
It is another thing to cancel a State Dinner at The White House—— ?
Oops, that was BRAZIL that cancelled that State Dinner! My bad.
Obamanation Foreign Policy is so damn complex!
Handshake, no handshakes, bomb, no bomb, drone, and drone, and drone - - - - .
Good thing Obama has his Nobel Peace Prize!
All this should be an XL Pipe cinch for The Obamanator!
I see this as par for the course . Iran is Shiite, Bashar Assad is Alewite and the Kenyan's masters are the Sunnis who rule Saudi Arabia and hate all non Sunnis.
The American MSM are truly saddened. They were salivating over the thought of making Barry look “presidential”. I guess even the Iranians couldn’t lower themselves to do this. Sorry Barry (and Valerie Jarrett).
Hey Hassan....go ahead and meet Hussein....he hates America also!!! You two will be best buds in no time.
