No surprise. Obama folded.

The U.S. has backed away from pursuing a number of tough measures against Iran in order to win support from Russia and China for a new United Nations Security Council resolution on sanctions, according to people familiar with the matter.

Among provisions removed from the original draft resolution the U.S. sent to key allies last month were sanctions aimed at choking off Tehran's access to international banking services and capital markets, and closing international airspace and waters to Iran's national air cargo and shipping lines, according to the people.

Israel is on their own until we get rid of the Muslim socialist that currently occupies the White House.

Are people surprised by this? Obama has openly and aggressively pursued a policy of outreach to muslim nations. He's made speeches in muslim settings where he said America was wrong in the past. About what? Hmmmm, maybe he meant the teapot dome scandal? No? Oh, well maybe he was referring to watergate? Not that either? Oh, was it our support for Israel? Oh, that was it? Wow.

And let's hear the response from the American jewish community to this blatant anti-Israeli policy shift:

Sorry, couldnt find any. They are all busy filling out their absentee ballots for democrats for the November election. Go figure.

Iran will NOT be able to buy toothpaste from foreign suppliers. Period. Or should I say, periodontally.
