I think it is also about doing the dirty for the House of Saud.
So the Nation thinks obama is going help Iran destroy Israel?
That makes more sense than him helping Israel, obama loathes Israel.
The war is about the LNG pipleine from Qatar to the Med. The Saudi’s want this too. The Russians, and by proxy Assad, do not.
If the pipeline goes in, the Russains lose influence on Western Europe via energy.
The Qataris’ plan goes forward, and the Shiite’s win. Saudi plan goes forward the Sunni’s win.
Follow the money.
His Arrogance is doing exactly what he is told .... by the Saudis and the rest of the Arab oil barons.
If it was about a strike against Iran’s nuclear
and military complex, a massive strike, I would have
no problem with it. I’ts this piddling halfass bullcrap
that is going to get us in a bad place.
It has always been more about Iran and regime change than poison gas. Assad in return for aid has allowed Iran to locate their short range ballistic missiles if forward Syrian positions. As long as they are in place, Israel cannot attack Iran’s nuclear facilities with impunity. If Assad is overthrown, the new rulers of Syria will throw out the Iranians. This cannot be done with a “limited strike”. It will be a horrendous conflict with boots and American blood on the ground.
I don’t trust this article. He’s spewing Obie’s dreams regarding Khoemeni and Putin’s pronouncements. All bunk, imho.
There are no lasting loyalties in the middle east. It’s tribe against tribe, family against family, minute by minute.
There is only one thing to do: do whatever is best for Israel.
Anybody who believes Obama is looking out for Israel is an idiot anyway.
I am doubtful of the article as well or that Obama is that interested in helping Israel. But regardless the collection of rebels that can’t even win against Assad don’t have a chance in hell of overthrowing an Iranian regime.
what specifically is the difference in the mullahs in charge of Iran and Valerie Jarrett’s Iranian roots ?
therein is the biscuit
I’m just not following the logic of this story. Doesn’t make sense to me.
When Iran announces it has nuclear weapons, they will have several.
I’m not seeing how taking Syria will take out or deter Iran’s nuke progress.
Western Europe desperately wants to get a LNG pipeline around Russian control to keep the lucrative energy profits in the West.
They would love a war between Russia and the US where they profit in multiple ways and the US gets death and debt as reward for being suckers.
It isn’t about being Iranian, it’s about being an obscenely wealthy and powerful Iranian.
It WON’T. That is liberal logic for you.
That makes more sense than anything else.
No its about Saudis and Iranians.
the Iranian angle ain’t been ‘splained well yet
