Let there be no doubt, that with the additional deployment of U.S. Patriot batteries around the gulf states the Iranian nuclear program is about to face the west’s wrath.
The decision to place additional defensive assets can only come for three reasons one they were requested by the gulf states themselves because of the potential threat from Iran; secondly because Iran is just about to be militarily hit by Israel or jointly with the U.S. and finally significant and painful sanctions.
Admiral Mike Mullens the Chairman of he Joint Chiefs reiterated that a Nuclear Iran “would destabilize the middle east”: in total the pentagon and the Obama Whitehouse are in agreement that a nuclear weapon is the ultimate goal of Iran: time for political sparing may have ran out for Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Now with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton making the rounds in the gulf states, it seems obvious that patience for Iranian defiance may be at an end.
However, the rattling of swords and beating of drums are just a gesture of things to come, and it remains to be seen if our newly elected President can muster the will and nerve to handle the job requirement.
Ahmadinejad has two options, hold and face sanctions or war in the face of additional opposition protests to his leadership, or submit to the international community.
Unfortunately, Ahmadinejad’s history is to crush opposition and disregard the international community.
While the UN and other states hold out for a reasonable response from Iran they just keep overlooking the obvious: Ahmadinejad truly, believes that he is building the foundations of a new Islamic empire.
Therefore, Ahmadinejad’s reasoning is delusional and reasoning is not a language he will understand.
If President Obama is ever going to lead, he had better stop letting his Secretary of State do it for him.
The Iranian issue may never be handled right if the President of the United States doesn’t become directly involved.
Unfortunately, his agenda for his personal “NEW DEAL” to reshape the American government is his priority and legacy.
This personality flaw or unbalanced set of priorities could cost American lives, international respect and certainly the initiative with Iran.
It’s sad, some brainwashed sheep talking about war as if it is a game. Your thirst for blood is sickening. I hope your country attacks Iran as you wish, so your filthy empire collapsed sooner. Your country is already bankrupt. I hope you die in Iran so you can become an American hero
