Obama: Eliminating Every ‘Nut and Bolt’ of Iran’s Nuclear Program Not an Option

(CNSNews.com) – President Obama argued at the weekend that it was unrealistic to envisage an agreement with Iran requiring a complete end to uranium enrichment. But Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu countered that turning up the pressure could deliver “a better deal,” describing the issue as “the paramount challenge of our generation.”

“If I had an option, if we could create an option in which Iran eliminated every single nut and bolt of their nuclear program, and foreswore the possibility of ever having a nuclear program, and, for that matter, got rid of all its military capabilities, I would take it,” he said, then added, “But that particular option is not available.”

What’s the matter Barry. Is everything you do overseas still “less than optimal?”

“O” talks like a complete idiot.

WHERE on earth did he learn to express himself like a 9 year old?

THIS is a President...a statesman?

South Africa got rid of every nut and bolt. Before Mandela got his hands on them.

Actually, eliminating every nut and bolt of Iran's nuclear program is possible, even though Obama is an inept coward who wants to avoid any difficult option. The question is whether the free world has the courage to force a peaceful solution that ends Iran's nuclear weapons program. The alternative is either (1) dropping as many nukes as required on Iran, or (2) watching Iran drop as many nukes as they can make on Israel and on other countries it wants to hurt before Iran's victims drop as many nukes as they can on Iran.

“But that particular option is not available.”

That particular option is the military one. I thought that all options were “on the table”, but apparently that promise is no longer operational.

If they want their nuclear weapons

(they already have access to the USA
by the State Dept and DHS
which leave the borders open and terrorists
so free they do not even need a passport)

Obama says that they can have them.

...but leveling it into a pile of nuts and bolts is.

Iran’s nuclear program is not above ground; they are just putting on a dog and pony show; bait if you will. Their devious intents are deep under ground and have been for many years. Wiping out or radiating “facilities” isn’t what is needed. Wiping out their leadership and the supporters of the leadership; supporting the people of Iran that want to live freely and aren’t too caught up in “wiping Israel of the map” is the goal to ending an atomic Iran. Before the mad mullah’s, Iran was friendly with us.

I wonder what size clown shoes Zerobama wears.

All he has to do is say that we’ll provide Iran with all the fuel rods they’ll ever need for peaceful nuclear power generation as long as they give us 100% of their centrifuges. Power generation doesn’t require weapons grade enrichment and they began their nuclear program with the specifically stated goal of nuclear power for peaceful generation of electricity so Zero can easily get multiple nations to back us up on that requirement.

The fact that Iran is enriching far beyond power plant needs should be enough of a red flag that we (or Israel) would be justified in bombing their nuclear sites.

But Valerie Jarrett wants her home country to use nuclear warfare as a sword when negotiating and/or as a tool to try to destroy their enemies. So I guess Zero will let that happen because he’s nothing more than her puppet.

Of course it’s an option. All that’s needed is one nuclear warhead to go off, right in the middle of their main project. Call it an accident. Let their neighbors spend the next 2 decades cleaning up the mess. That will be the end of Iran’s nuke program. But zer0bama doesn’t have the gonads to do it.

I’d like to eliminate the nut in the White House.
