Iran Mocks Obama Who ‘Begged' for Drone
Israel National News ^ | November 13, 2011 | Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu

Iran is having a field day over the latest downed Drone, saying that President Barack Obama “begs to give him back his toy plane.”

“Obama is hoping that the Iranian government is in a Christmas mood because he has asked Tehran to send him his Christmas present. Iran mocks Obama who ‘begged' for [his] Drone back,” chided the semi-official Fars News Agency.

"We have asked for it back. We'll see how the Iranians respond," Obama said following a meeting at the White House with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.

"Given Iran's behavior to date, we do not expect them to comply," U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said. President Obama reportedly turned down proposals to try to bomb the drone or retrieve it, fearing such an act would be considered an “act of war.”

Here’s an idea Mr. President. Blow it out of the sky first time it’s seen in the air.

Obama not only does huge geopolitical damage but also humiliates us once more.

What an embarrassment. I say we destroy it with a bunker buster bomb. If we know where it is, that is.

Yup. A laughingstock if one isn’t shedding tears for the nation same time.

One poster on the article who lives in Israel actually posted that Obama is a muslem spy and for us to wake up.

I hate to admit it but my first reaction when I heard of 0bama’s asking was to laugh out loud.

If they say no, will he? Will he? (Oh, he is so scary) Ask again?

Maybe he can give them the secret sauce for enriching Uranium for weapons and they will trade..??..

Or, since they want a nuclear bomb so bad, send one to where the drone is. The Mullah’s can have a front row seat at their first detonation.

“I don’t get it..I thought the world would love us when Bush was out of office?”

Well, certain groups such as the Mexican drug cartels, illegal aliens, Al Qaida, Muslem radicals...and it’s not that they love us now, but love we don’t have a Bush in office or they’d not have such free run.

I think the issue is more that the ChiComs will get the technology and build their own. It’s what they do — what was their last original idea, fireworks? They probably bought or stole that idea too.

Obama should fly his buddies from the OWS movement over there. They can pitch tents and stink up the place.

Even Jimmy Carter would not have acted this pathetically.

The Iranians have it, they are taking it apart and analyzing all the technology behind it. If they send it back it will only be more mockery because it will be like the recon plane the Chinese returned to Bush--in pieces.

An unsettling possibility that needs to be considered is that obama deliberately let the Iranians have it rather than destroy it, and the "act of war" rubbish is just that.

Normally I would call this out as propaganda. But the sad thing is, he probably did beg.

I believe this is an impeachable offense, and I don’t say that lightly.

The US Gov't certainly knew where it was, at least when it landed. It should have been bombed on the spot. No publicity, no claims, no acknowledgement.

I’m not sure I agree.

Didn’t Carter spend more than a year asking the same country for our PEOPLE back while killing some of our soldiers in his inept “rescue attempt”?
