    It's a very short video of Obama talking out his ass about proving the case for military action on Iran, while at the same time thoroughly contradicting his original position and ideologies on the matter.

    flip

    flop...

    When again in that clip (or that speech for that matter) did he bring up, or endorse military action against Iran?

    Well, when we are talking about a country with primitive nuclear capabilities and tremendously short range missiles, yes, the US is impervious to those nuclear weapons.
    what about the troops in Iraq? Afghanistan?

    I knew that would be the next question from someone.

    hmm terrorists with nuclear weapons...lets ponder the scenario and decide what to do.

    Given the ongoing attack Iran rhetoric in the media, and the undeniably clear intentions on both sides, what do you think he's talking about with scare mongering talk like this?

    Inciting public opinion and impression to plant flowers in Iran?

    hmm...I'm guessing no...

    I agree. Not a threat to a threat. Doesn't matter to whom. His implication is that if they continue to be considered a threat to us or our allies, he will push for an attack.

    Man the people in here posting have the wool over their eyes.
    What more do you need? He does not know what the fuck he is talking about!
    He tells everyone what they want to here!
    Jackass Obama, at least get some fucking balls and stand up for what you believe in. Make a choice and stick with it.

    By judging politicians on the basis of their actions rather than the D or R beside their name, I'd wager.
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

    Just pointing out reality...straight from the horses mouth..that's all. Sorry you see that as a weakness.

    Change you can believe in.

    Must be another definition for change in the English language I don't know about.

    Swooned over by a smooth talking politician, is not something associated with my thought process.

    Or the context of words.

    Hey, if you posted a video that showed him actually contradicting himself I'd be in agreement...until that time comes you clearly...once again...tried for something that wasn't there.

    It's pretty clear he is taking two differing views on Iran.

    love is blind so they say

    hehe

    Like others have said, how can Iran really be a threat to the US? I agree our ports security is pretty week, but what exactly do we import from Iran and if they did get something in...what could be so detrimental to the US? If they flew a plane over they wouldn't get within 200 miles of any US boarder.
    They are NO threat to the US, but unfortunately they do pose a threat to the area. They have the means to hit many targets in the region.

    And you said yourself in another thread that they don't have nukes...and everyone knows this. They may not have nukes, but they do have an impressive arsenal and a lot of funding to back it.
    Iran's citizens believe their own gov. are close to doing something and most of them are freaked the fuck out about it.
    I'm sorry, it was just a bad video that shows nothing about him flip-flopping on the issue.

    They are no threat to us.
    They are a threat to the region.

    Preeeeeety much what he has said all along and what most people have known for some time.

    You're entitled to your opinion even if it tuns a blind eye...

    *Illegal* nuclear program I believe he said...

    ....and you're absolutely mad if you think people in the US aren't afraid of nuclear weapons falling into the wrong hands...such as the fear mongering case for intervention Barak was so candidly laying out *to an American audience*...in complete opposition to his original position and rhetoric about Iran.

    complete 180...

    If nuclear reactors in Iran are any comparison...

    It's quite possible in the future.

    They have an "illegal" nuclear program after all and require strict intervention...words from the man himself.

    Obama's supporters on this board really have not been making themselves, and thus they're candidate, look very good when they respond with ridiculously lame sarcastic jokes. :rolleyes:

    Obama's foreign policy is shit.
