أوباما يعلن دعمه لإسرائيل في مواجهة إيران: لن نتردد في استعمال القوة

Israel is dragging us to another war. Hope Obama would kick Natanyahu out of the white house tomorrow.

I think strategic ambiguity is proving its foolishness here. The practical gist of his comments is that he might as well attack Iran in ten minutes, to make absolutely sure he prevents them from getting a nuclear weapon--and to kill absolutely every Iranian. That obviously is not what he'll do. So what will he do? Talk a lot and let Israel slide toward its own Arab Spring. Or I should say, Arab-Persian-Pakistani-etc Spring. I might have to add China. Compare Israel and China (Israel's current target for distracting world opinion). China's system supplies $4500 GDP per capita where two generations ago citizens were dying by the million. China does this under a mixed socialist-capitalist economy. As someone said the other day, Israel used to be trusted when it spoke. People can take China at its word.

People have no idea what Israel is talking about when it speaks of "existential threats", etc. So how do you deal with someone who refuses to speak to you? You shun them. Really, they shun themselves. And where do they end up? Is Obama one more of the "99%" who are just waiting for Israel to get rid of itself once and for all?
