Hmmm..."global economic consequences"....hmmmm...rather than global "nuclear" consequences.

Oh,..thats right. There is an election coming up and wouldn't want democratic jews upset when Obama would have to choose who to support.

He should talk. It’s okay if the US goes and does it but when Israel sees an imminent threat to its survival it’s a “you better not do that”

Ordinarily, an ally of Israel would be expected to warn Iran of the consequences of continuing its nuclear program.

That’s what an ally might do.

he still favors sanctions and diplomacy over a strike

Was he still talking about Israel? He prefers sanctions against Israel, but would consider nuking Tel Aviv if the Jews get out of line? Is that the message that Obama sent?

There is no real need to conquer Iran as with Iraq. Bomb their nuke capacity back to the stone age and then conquer the coast from Basra to Hormuz.

Conquer Elam.

Gads, grow a brain Panetta. Israel is in the midst of hell over there and you’re talking like you can just waltz out of all this anti-semitic hate? Someone give him a home to LIVE in in Sderot.

“not just on our economy but the world economy.”

Nothing like setting the stage for revival of hatred...

The consequences are energy prices going up, our economy tanking even further and Zero unquestionably losing reelection.

Start the bombing.

A nuclear weapon or two, unleashed on a nation the size of New Jersey would be devastating. Let Panetta live in Iran’s crosshairs for awhile. Bet he changes his tune really quickly.

Shouldn't he be warning the Iranians of the consequences of an Israeli strike?

There are political consequences for publicly stabbing Israel in the back.

Most Americans Support Right of Jews to Live and Build in Judea-Samaria

"By a margin of nearly five to one, Americans oppose the Bush administration's demand to halt all further Jewish construction in Judea-Samaria (the West Bank) and Gaza . . . The poll, carried out by John McLaughlin & Associates, surveyed a scientific sample of 1,000 American adults on May 21, 2003.

What nerve of Panetta to warn one of our allies when they know
that this administration would be of no help if they needed it!

If he were alive today even LBJ wouldn't be playing that game. There's mind boggling insanity going on in DC and it's bought and paid for by Soros and the hordes of leftist minions.

Prayers up for our country.
