Mideast officials: Obama in secret talks with Iran Asking Tehran to guarantee it won't hit U.S. if

JERUSALEM – President Obama has been engaged in secret, back-channel talks with Iran in which he informed Tehran’s leaders he is completely opposed to any Israeli strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities, according to informed Middle Eastern officials.

The officials told WND the behind-the-scenes talks aim to secure a guarantee from Iran that it will not retaliate against the U.S. in the event of any Israeli military strike, the officials said.

It was unclear what, if anything, Obama offered Iran in exchange for a pledge against targeting U.S. installations, including in the Gulf.

The State Department did not immediately return a WND request seeking comment on the alleged back-door talks.

In a wide-ranging interview March 9 with Al-Monitor, an Arab website founded in the wake of the Middle East revolutions, former Republican Sen. Chuck Hagel hinted that private approaches to Iran were already occurring.

Hagel is co-chairman of Obama’s Intelligence Advisory Board. While he was in the Senate he served on the Foreign Relations Committee.

Al-Monitor’s Washington correspondent, Barbara Slavin, interviewed Hagel at Georgetown University, where he teaches a weekly class.

Slavin asked Hagel: “Do you know if there any private approaches going on, or is it all through the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council plus Germany?

“I’m kinda surprised that The Mossad hasn’t unearthed Zero’s real birth certificate”

How do you know they haven’t?
Obama still controls the largest Army and arsenal on the planet. Not to mention his Chicago connections, and his National Security Forces.
I think the world is terrified to openly defy Obama.

“I think the world is terrified to openly defy Obama.”

Could that be true? Militarily, economically, politically?

No one abides a traitor.

Where the he%* is anybody speaking out against this??

Knowledge, in these times breeds fear. The fear that comes from the realization that the only way to save yourself involves killing your follow man. So people would rather avoid it. No "reasonable" person would act that way. The MSM HOPES for some bullshit story. Some "buzzz" some "sound byte". They are spineless. The 99% are spineless. So ya'll push it off until it comes down to a point where the only "reasonable" way to save yourself is to slaughter that "good morning" motherf'er standing next to you on the elevator AND every one else on the second floor...

Then again....

Knowledge, in the hands of those who are not afraid...

...formed this nation....
