Well, now, if Israel does attack Iran, and Obama gets mad at Israel -—
Obama can ask, “Why the hell did YOU listen to Joe? Nobody else does!”

Even though I sympathize with the thought. In this climate, I’d think that Israel had better keep their nuke strikes strategic and avoid any major population extinction.

I wouldn’t trust Obama any farther than I could throw the United Nations.

“In this climate, I’d think that Israel had better keep their nuke strikes strategic and avoid any major population extinction.”

Israel won’t use nukes to go after Iran’s nuke program. It’ll all be conventional bombing. It remains to be seen how the rest of the Muslim world will react to the initial conflict, though.

Biden says the U.S. "cannot dictate to another sovereign nation what they can and cannot do."

This is exactly what Osama did about a month ago when he warned Israel against preemptive strikes against Iran.

Pick from the following options:
a. They disagree with each other.
b. Neither one of them knows their asses from holes in the ground.
c. The Vice President is too stupid to know what his boss said.
d. This is intentional misdirection for reasons that are unclear.
e. All of the above.
f. None of the above.

I differ on that opinion. The US is controlled by a Marxist, leeches scrambling for control and domination. Israel knows this. Survival of a more permanent option is their goal

The USofA won’t stand in the way . . . unsaid: Neither will the USofA support Israel if there’s a problem.

Biden is speaking as someone who actually knows and cares about laws and such, jerk that he is. He at least has spent enough time in the Senate to understand that concept.

Obama is sitting back and saying “What do you mean? I am the “ruler”.

When did that policy go into effect?

Note: this only happened after Saudi Arabia gave permission to let Israel use their airspace to attack Iran. Obama doesn’t want to make problems for his king.

Even worse, Honduras, where he sided with Chavez, Castro, and Ortega, in support of a constitutionally removed tyrant.

I expect the President’s Muddler in Chief, Gibbs, to come out any time to “clarify” the VP opinion by some 180 degrees.

Your reply to the original posting which indicated reaction to a ‘nuclear threat’. While not specifically advocating likewise reaction (e.g. nuclear), dealing with such is hardly something left to asymmetric responses......

Nukes are not required to destroy nukes. Using a nuke to destroy a nuke would be stupid.

Biden says the U.S. "cannot dictate to another sovereign nation what they can and cannot do." The VP is saying one thing and the Pres. is dictating to Israel and the USA citizenry:on health care and cap & trade and everything and anything. The rest of the world,especially or enemies, are taking notice that we(USA) has/have no coherent policy at all?
