    Iran not to obtain a nuclear weapon isn't only the Israeli Cause", it is ours also and many more Countries. I can't speak for the Israeli State and its people, but I would think they want Freedom in all forms. And, I would say, that like the U.S. they believe they have the right to protect by any means they feel forced to use. I don't believe their number one choice would be "war" or attacking another Country. I also can understand why portions of Palestine should be owned and under Israeli government.

    Many may disagree with this but IMO the people of Israel and the State of Israel have much more knowledge of the Countries located in the Middle East and the people that occupy them than the people of the U.S. While our Government may have knowledge about the history of the Middle East, the Jews and the Muslims none living in the U.S. have personal experience with the day to life of the area or have lived our lives under control of their various Government; visiting their or living even 10-20 years their is just not the same.. After all, most of these Middle Eastern Countries have been feuding, killing each other over religious beliefs fo1000 years if not more.
    "The Muslim Conquest"

    (good reading: The Muslim Conquest

    "The Muslim, or Islamic, religion was founded in Arabia early in the seventh century by Mohammed. He claimed to be the last prophet of the Biblical God, whom he called Allah. The Arabians were quickly won to his cause, and Muslim armies advanced into adjacent lands. The Persians and Byzantines, enfeebled by their perpetual warfare, were easily defeated. By 700 all the Middle East but Asia Minor was under Muslim control. Arabic became the common language. The conquered peoples, except for Christians and Jews, were forced to convert to Islam. Jews began returning to Palestine.

    The Arabs, secure in their control of the land, turned to the sea. Soon they had monopolized trade in the Indian Ocean and were sailing to China for silk.

    The Arab caliph (the civil and religious ruler of the Muslims) governed first from Medina, then from Damascus. Dissension soon developed, however. The caliphate was seized by a dissenting faction in 750 and a new capital, Baghdad, was founded in 762. Arab influence declined and the Muslim world came to be controlled by the Persians, under whom a brilliant Islamic culture developed. But internal conflict brought divisions in the Muslim faith. Meanwhile, the Turks known as Seljuks were migrating from Central Asia into Persia, where they were converted to Islam. In the 11th century they became the rulers of all the central portion of the Middle East to the Mediterranean, and overwhelmed the Byzantines in eastern Asia Minor.

    It will not be the U.S.A. or any other Western Country that can reform this area. Israel, Palestine, Turkey, Saudi Arabia did it with little military intervention from us because their were changes demanded by their populations and reforms in their governments for a few examples. But when it comes to Iran, Iraq, Afgan., Syria and so on I have to wonder what percentage of their populations are "on board" with government, religious reform?

    How can we sit down with IRAN when they are holding so many Americans hostage for no reason other than they can, and we let then. The release of these hostages should have been number 1 prior to any negotiation. and secondly while they are supplying weapons and supporting terrorist groups in Syria, etc; there should be no negotiation. And, until they agree to get rid of all elements need to manufacture nuclear weapons, no negotiation and not even partial discontinuance of sanctions. Our Commander and Chief is simply inexperience when it comes to this subject and he takes advise from socialist/fascists/quasi-communist advisors surrounding him. Some convicted criminals for goodness sake. People that used force against the Federal Government and its workers or had plans to do so but were arrested before they could. Funny how these individuals are now Lawyers, College Professors or members of the Administration who all are millionaires plus. Yes millionaires and yet the Occupy Wall Street movement never mentioned them, did it.

    No wonder he'd seem so indecisive, taking advice from all those people at once! I wonder how they manage to get along?

    Your post is spot on, especially the last paragraph. Iran is a country that kills women, homosexuals, dissidents, etc. Why the left is pro-Iran is unfathomable to me, unless it's simply to be against Bibi rather than exercise any common sense. Then again common sense has never been their strong point.

    The only positive way to move forward with Iran is for them to stop enrichment totally, to remove all centrifuges, and totally remove their heavy water reactor. Russia has already offered to fuel the Bushehir uranium nuclear power plant. Of course Iran refused. Iran only has one reason to continue enrichment. With this "deal" the enrichment continues with more centrifuges than Korea's or Pakistan's bomb program.

    That's assuming they keep to the deal. As signers of the NPT Iran is already required to undergo inspections. Inspections that they refuse under a treaty they've violated numerous times. What does Obama and the left intend to do when, not if, Iran violates this agreement?

    You do understand that it was Bibi who presented that stupid completely devoid of reality BS scare tactic graphic.

    We should absolutely use it in showing how pending deals would deal with the threat Bibi presented. It should ease his mind.

    This is like someone complaining when you read their own words back to them.

    You do understand Bibi's graphic and speech was spot on? It was based on data that our own Secretary of State used.

    He said Iran would have a nuke in 9 months. . .that was in 2012. Reality dictates his speech was not spot on. Neither were the speeches in which he said the EXACT SAME THING years prior.

    Yes, and there's nothing in "Obama's" tweet that actually contradicts Netanyahu's diagram.

    No he didn't. The left continuously makes themselves look stupid on this, at least listen to your Secretary of State. Kerry said it's two months (for fissile material) last year. Is he wrong too?

    "Iran can produce fissile material for an atomic weapon in two months, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Tuesday told a Senate hearing"

    http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/04/08/us-iran-nuclear-usa-breakout-idUSBREA3719I20140408

    Google the term "breakout time" or "breakout capacity" and you might educate yourself on what Kerry and Bibi are talking about. The consensus is if Iran comes down to 2 weeks breakout time they can fool IAEA inspectors.

    To be honest that bomb diagram that Mr Netanyahu used at the UN General Assembly was pretty juvenile itself . Does not mean the US govt needs to respond in kind.

    Right, so Obama thinks Bibi's diagram was correct. The problem is Obama's diagram doesn't depict the reality of the proposed "deal".

    Even though it was in front of the UN, Bibi was addressing Obama directly. Bibi had to come down to Obama's level so the President might have a chance of comprehension. Unfortunately Bibi failed but it wasn't his fault...maybe next time he should use a popup book or words with 2 syllables or less.

    Obama is turning the USA into USAHS with his juvenile (*)(*)(*)(*)ing behavior. My teenage sister has more class and maturity than Obama and all of his minions combined.

    He picks fights with Christians on Easter Sunday, he picks fights with allies over terrorist enemies gaining nuclear capability....I mean (*)(*)(*)(*), what else does this mother(*)(*)(*)(*)er have to do to make EVERY AMERICAN hate his (*)(*)(*)(*)ing guts? If you arent sick of Obama by now you have your head in your ass.

    I'm not sure by what possible standard this constitutes mockery. It's a response in kind to a point that Netanyahu made, one which is intended to rebut Netanyahu's point. Is any response to anything that Netanyahu says or does that's less than uncritically adulatory considered mockery now? It's in any case less mocking than Netanyahu coming to the United States to address our legislature with all the pomp and circumstance of a state visit (it should be remembered that Israel has a ceremonial president, Reuven Rivlin, who could more appropriately have made such a visit, but the Republicans had enough of a vestigial sense of shame to not ask him to be involved) without bothering to involve or even inform Obama was.

    That what you say would be true if George Bush were president, but after watching our government for the last 14 years since 9/11, their ineptness is ever more present, and the divisiveness in our nation has grown beyond belief, you won't find any of our politicians willing to pull the trigger like Bush did. Also, it would be an utter blur as usual as to Iran and their participation with eliminating Israel.

    Don't forget how saddam paid Palestinian families when they attacked Israelis, and the world stood by with nothing more than harsh criticism, and saddam's respond was BFD. Bush enters the picture after the 9/11 attacks and gives saddam the finger, takes him out, and now is blamed for every death in the middle east. This game is well played by our enemies, and they know exactly how to destroy us, and that is from within, just like every war has ever been won.

    Obama never misses an opportunity to divide, that's how he maintains his power, and that is the same modus operandi of our enemies that want us dead, "divide and conquer". It works every time

    Ok, let's be honest here, Israel is a protectorate of the US, not an Ally. If it wasn't for the US Israel would have been wiped off the map decades ago with it's shenanigans.

    Israel is like a little kid with a big brother who starts bullying all the neighbors, then starts crying to big bro whenever it's neighbors stand up to the little kid.

    Yet another fabricated piece of partisan nonsense attempting to take a truly cheap shot at Obama with the added bonus of offering fodder to the predisposed base and the usual cadre of haters out there.

    another "snub" of Bibi made of whole cloth. Talk about pandering to a specific demographic.

    So, to what do you ascribe the republicans massive contributions to the divisive politics of today?
