I read this article on google and the headline read: Obama Warns Both Iran and Israel, "I don't bluff".
I find it very interesting that a president who is facing the reality that he may lose his position as the leader of the country that honestly believes they are entitled to govern the rest of the world, who pulled our troops out of Iraq, who is working on nuclear disarmament negotiations with Russia and North Korea, is now committing our military to oversee a backyard fight that has been long overdue. Now that the middle east's populous is focusing on earning their own rights, Iran seems to be short of allies. Israel has been sitting back like a tiger waiting for the perfect moment to attack its prey and lay its hands on a superb feast.
Nevertheless, it appears that Israel is ready to strike. The biggest fear that I have is that Israel will continue to EXPECT the U.S. to support them in their militia endeavors. Yes, we want to know what is going on with Iran's nuclear developments, but we do not want to start bombing their cities, killing innocent people, and invoking world war three.
I understand the presidents' statements and I hope that the rest of the world understands as well. If Israel wants to brawl, let 'em brawl. We aren't here to protect them from that, but when nuclear force is a danger, we should only be held responsible for protecting ourselves. There are many resources in the world and there are many relationships in the world, the question is, are we ensuring that we have enough resources and the right relationships to survive in this newer, smaller world.
