While President Obama enjoys his sixth vacation of the year, at the exclusive playground of America’s liberal elites at Martha’s Vineyard, the United States’ most dangerous state-based adversary on the world stage is celebrating the opening of its first nuclear reactor, the Russian-built power plant at Bushehr. Although purportedly for civilian purposes, there can be no doubt that this is a huge leap forward for Iran’s nuclear weapons programme, with US officials acknowledging Iran is just “12 months from a nuclear weapon.” Earlier this week, Tehran announced it was building 10 uranium enrichment plants in protected mountain strongholds, and on Friday the Iranian regime ominously test-fired a new surface to surface missile, with an undisclosed range.
As the brutal Islamist tyranny led by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad inches closer to its nuclear ambitions, and its stated goal of wiping Israel “off the map”, the Obama administration seems to be in a state of suspended animation. Its naïve and disastrous strategy of engagement towards Tehran, which began with an embarrassing video appeal to Iran from the White House early last year, now lies in tatters. The Obama presidency’s policy of appeasement of Ahmadinejad has been a spectacular failure, and has only strengthened the hand of the Mullahs who view Washington’s weakness as a green light to proceed with their nuclear ambitions.
Aside from supporting economic and political sanctions through the UN Security Council, which will take years to take effect, and are continually watered down by the Russians and the Chinese, the Obama administration has no real plan in place for preventing the rise of a nuclear-armed Iran. Time is not on the West’s side, and the huge looming threat not only to Israel but to the entire Middle East grows greater by the day.(continued)

It isn’t a failure to the radical Black Muslim groups like the Black Panthers, Reverend Wright, Nation of Islam and the insane far left. Its part of the plan.
Obama is VERY effective.
The Telegraph is head and shoulders my favorite newspaper!
As is seen recently, the British get it. And print it.
This is the type of real headlines for US news that we have to look to the UK to find.
Thanks a bunch RAT-Lacky U.S. MSM.
This is not a “Failue” - this was plans. The majority of American Jews, fake catholics and other idiots voted for this.
ObamaCare is also the first sharia non-muslim tax in America by muslims to tax non-muslims. It is called a jizya.
Exactly.
The media-manipulated fat center mind full of mush Americans voted our nation into oblivion.
Iran sees a huge Armageddon-style conflict as necessary for Muslim global takeover.
Thanks to the American appeasers, it’s on the way....
If Israel is counting on the US to protect it, then Israel has lost its way.

The Telegraph is good because it is owned by the Barclay Brothers who are not part of the CFR, Davos, Bilderberg media clan and elites. They are self made Scottish Catholics who grew up in England in a big family taht was poor. God bless them because it is the best newspaper in the world.
NY Post has Saudi shareholders with News Corp - ditto Times of London and Sun.
Begging for the Pink Mist Treatment (Let the Reader Understand)
They’re finished anyway now that the reactor has started.
You're right! The Democrat Party's and Obama's policy of the abasement of America in front of the entire world is working just fine.
