The wrong reasons which motivated Obama are simply he does not want American foreign policy to prosper, he does not want American power extended, in fact, he wants it eclipsed, reduced and ultimately eliminated. He opposed the Iraq war not because he foresaw all the problems which erupted during the occupation after the initial crushing victory but because he opposed the extension of American power.
America, after all, is the greatest bulwark against the encroach of statism, communism, Islam, one world government.
So, the analogy to Yalta seems to me to be inapposite because Obama does not believe he can manage the Iranians as Roosevelt wrongly believed he could manage Stalin, Obama simply wants to refrain from extending American power and in fact welcomes a counterforce which would emerge with a nuclear Iran. He does not want to manage the Iranians he wants to enable them. And he wants to enable them because he believes their view of the world is superior to the traditional American Weltanschauung.
Is Obama motivated because he is a closet Muslim? Is he motivated because he is a communist? Is he simply motivated because the enemy of my enemy is my friend? Is he simply making common cause against an enemy? Who can tell. Whatever the man is, he is profoundly dangerous to the security of America.
