Obama and Iran's nukes
Barack Obama wants to go easy on Iran and its nuclear program, and does not like Hillary Clinton's strident rhetoric on the subject (of course Obama put up with his pastor's strident rhetoric for 20 years without batting an eye). Obama's advisor on nuclear matters says defending against Iran's nuclear program is similar to the Israeli settlement movement. I kid you not. Where does he find these people?
Of course, it won't matter to many Jewish liberals, who see a Democrat label next to a candidate's name, and robotically vote that way. Fouad Ajami examines Iran's three decades of getting a free pass. With Barack Obama handing Iraq over to them, and allowing the mullahs to complete their nuclear program while he arranges face to face talks, they would receive new gifts. Will the CIA soon admit the NIE was wrong?
