Obama Has Made it Impossible for Israel to Strike Iran
American Thinker ^ | jan 28, 2014 | Karin McQuillan

Posted on 01/31/2014 10:48:33 PM PST by Innovative

I called a hardheaded realist, a Harvard trained PhD who has been watching the Middle East professionally for decades, to ask him about Obama's Iran deal. This is what he told me.

It's done. Iran will get a bomb.

They want a bomb and they will not be denied unless somebody stops them. Obama does not want to stop them. He does not want a friendly regime in Iran. He wants Iran as a counterforce to America and Israel. Obama is not a Muslim, but he is a radical. He sees the U.S. and Israel as imperialistic and oppressive. He doesn't like the U.S. military. He'd cut it to nothing if he could get away with it.

We'll have to pull our troops and our aircraft carriers out of the Persian Gulf. We'll lose our ability to protect Middle Eastern oil. The Gulf Arabs will have to cooperate with Iran. So will Europe; they depend on that oil.

Carter gave us Iran as it is currently governed. Now, in his third term, he is giving them nukes.

My take on are strikes from Israel:
- air strikes will happen, when Israel thinks it is necessary for safety/survival
- if they have a ‘bunker buster’ they will likely use it
- covert ground operations will also be simultaneously operating
- all strikes against Israel in that timeframe will be countered with overwhelming force
- the Israeli strikes will be highly effective

There is much more going on here than just leftist Marxist ideology and hatred of freedom,

Satan = wants Iran to have the bomb because he hates Israel
Obama = wants Iran to have the bomb because he hates Israel

He’s doing the will of his father,

“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12

We should be actively doing the will of our Father and binding and rebuking these spiritual powers, he gave us the authority to do so:

“Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” Matthew 18:18

Utter nonsense. Israel isn’t going to sit there cowering just because someone *might* leak info about a pending strike. Further, in all likelihood, the Iran situation is beyond the point where overt airstrikes could do anything anyway. If Israel really needs to do something, they’ll send in covert-ops teams.

Utter nonsense is right. Throughout history, from the time of Moses and Joshua and Aaron the Jewish people have fought fiercely for what they wanted. They were, and still are I believe, one of the most vicious fighting forces on the plant. "Take no Prisoners" gets a whole new meaning when it comes to the Israel nations policy in war. They will not let Iran ever become dominant in the region. It may result in a mushroom cloud or two but they will not hesitate. JMHO!

“I prefer to believe that there has been successful action that has disrupted and delayed the Iranian effort to the point that aerial attack is not necessary.”

You can believe anything you want, such as that the moon is made of green cheese, even though it has no basis in reality.

There is absolutely no evidence to support your “BELIEF” and there is plenty of evidence showing the opposite.

-——There is absolutely no evidence ——

• Several (4?) leading nuclear lead scientists are dead
• There were at least two major explosions at Iranian nuclear and military tunnel facilities
• Stuxnet

These were attempts but none of them sufficient to stop Iran from getting the bomb.

Knarfster, it was 91 here yesterday. January is over, back to the blistering heat again. Oh well. We get to see the Super Bowl on live TV, on Cignal Satellite, but because it is live, it comes on here at 7:30 AM, Monday morning. We are having a small Super Bowl party at my house. Go Vikings. Yeah, right. At least my Blackhawks have won 2 Stanley Cups.

It should cool down a bit in a month.

'Course, you're more in the city than in the province ... might make a difference.

It makes a difference if I walk 3 blocks to the beach. There is always a nice breeze there, that, 3 blocks away, we don't get. That is why this subdivision is popular, because we can walk to the beach. It is 8:15 AM, almost time to watch Judge Jeanine live on Fox. See you soon bro.

. He would like to see the United States reduced to the same level as Great Britain and France.

But only if Great Britain and France are reduced below the level of Somalia.

He wants all "Western Civilization" countries reduced to third-world hellholes, with most of the population dead, the rest in chains.

Keep that in mind, and everything he does makes perfect sense.

He may not be a Muslim. Being a Muslim requires that he worship Allah.

The Won worships none but himself.

But he’s certainly a Muslim sympathizer.

Obama is a Muslim & he is a radical.

Israel will survive much longer than Obama will survive.

I support Israel in any conflict over anything Obama says or does.

The Iranians will target Saudi Arabia (Mecca specifically), the Harlot of Babylon:
