U.S. President Barack Obama plans to soon propose to Iran that it negotiate directly with the Americans about its nuclear program, Channel 10 News reported on Tuesday.

The report, which cited a senior American official, said that Obama's move was made without any coordination or consultation with Israel.

According to the report, the Americans probably will allow a period of four to five months for negotiations with Tehran. If the talks fail, they may then resort to the military option. As well, Obama is planning to set preconditions for contacts with the Islamic Republic, including that it halt its uranium enrichment and agree to allow external monitoring of its nuclear facilities.

This is not the first time that Israel and the United States do not see eye to eye on the issue of Iran arming itself with nuclear weapons, but this is the first time that action was taken at such a high level of importance without informing Israel, noted Channel 10.

According to Channel 10, the White House believes that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is personally responsible for the leaks to the media of the IAEA report on the Iranian nuclear program, as was reported by the British Guardian on Monday.

Well, after four years of screaming at them liberal commies( no doubt about them) till I'm hoarse, screaming at anyone who will listen this guy will do whatever he can to fundamentally transform 'merica into a dhimmi state and the jizya to starvation and no medical care is a comin.

Now we have a government that has no qualms about telling "we the people' to take our morals and our Constitution and shove it. Yepper, it's so obvious now even a blind retarded dead man can see the writing on the crypt.

We're , I don't want to write it, but someone is going to have to clean the wax out of the ears of them folks up in the WH. What to do? What to DO?

What to do? What to DO?

You are already doing it. They hear you, they just don't want to let on yet. You have planted seeds which will grow.

I don’t recognize the country I grew up in *today*.

Ditto F-15. We're all slaves now.

I'm praying for that. But I'm also considering getting a blog with a paypal button and maybe folks will send me to Northern Israel, with a new ghillie suit and some MRE's and I can literally report from the front lines in a bunker, or a knobby hill. I'm hoping Obama has finally over stepped. No I am praying we WAKE UP before this country is shackled without even a fight. Problem is I don't know my hebrew very well, but I'm still a pretty good shot. Just point me in the right direction. Only time now that America will have to fight, will we fight?

How many last chances to settle things with negotiations has Iran had in the first term? It's like a programming loop.
