With Obama already indicating that short of a strategic nuclear strike against the American homeland that we will not use nukes (and who knows if even then), one wonders what will happen if North Korea rolls into the South, China strikes at Taiwan, combined Arab armies move against Israel, and Iran attacks Iraq all on the same day...

“Has Barry resigned yet?”

Why would he? He’s getting exactly what he wants - the potential destruction of Israel.

He’s going to sit on the sidelines and make snarky comments about Israel and how *they* have to pony up to make this right, and demand that they give more and more to the Palestinian terrorists, and the UN will demand they give up their nukes, and Obama will support that.

He might even pause on the 11th tee to get a security report that Jerusalem has been overrun and and Israel lit of nukes over Syria.

He’s probably got his minions working overtime today carving up the future carcass with China and the Soviets, led by Hillary.

I don’t see this as on the destruction of Israel. Look around. This is the beginning of WWIII. IMHO. There are no longer any “world leaders” out there. The kids are running the joint and it appears as though God has “left the building”. IMHO

Not going to happen.

Syria didn't shoot as much as a pebble at Israel after Israeli jets smashed their secret nuclear facility, humiliating them and killing an unknown number of Syrians.

Syria is not going to go to war with Israel just because a handful of crazy Turks got shot on a boat.

I concur in that view. The war in Korea has gone on literally all of my life. Israel has been under constant attack since 2 years before that. I see things moving rapidly toward the most open and aggressive hostility in both areas very soon.

Bring it on you bunch of cave dwelling, knuckle draging, camel sniffing, piss smelling, jew and christian hating, brainless, inbred sons of pigs. How many thousands of years you have wanted this - do it! Obama won’t stop you! Your piss @ss ugly, fat 72 virgins await you in hell.

I really upset with the Israelis for NOT wiping them all off the face of the map!

That’s never gonna happen as much as our fearless leader might hope. Israel has One Ally that won’t turn on her.

I’ve been saying that our era reminds me of the 1930s.

Obama’s weakness WILL bring war.

Everybody got some potassium iodide and calcium tablets?

I have been wondering if people could dilute iodine products, e.g., Betadine, in a pinch. Any docs out there know?

Plastic sheet and duct tape? The fallout will get here in a few days after the nuke war begins in the ME.

He has been “tested” repeatedly with highly satisfactory scores so far. He gets at least a B+ on Korea and is working on an A for the Middle East.

The only world leader these days is Netinyahu, sadly. But, you may be right, this could start WWIII, I said as much on another thread.

My point was, Obama has no reason to step down. He has no shame, especially when it comes to breaking treaties and acting immorally towards Israel. He wants this. He wants Israel broken, or wiped out. They are a thorn in his side, an annoyance that his Muslim brothers want gone, and he will help them to achieve that.

I agree with you.

I like the old saying about "history might not repeat itself but it rhymes." It really rhymes with the years leading up to WWII right now. IMHO.

Israel is also surrounded by the US Navy etc. and there have been hints from the USofO(bama)that if the IAF rises to attack Iran, and by extension, Syria et al, American forces will shoot them down. It is ironic that the next major Middle East war just might be between the United States and Israel. Some fairly prominent supporters of Soetoro have called for an American occupation of all of "Palestine"(minus Jordan) to gain "Human Rights" for the oppressed thugs and fanatic murderers of Gaza and the West Bank and end the tyrrany of the Jew Israelis.
