Obama's legacy: A nuclear Iran ~ By Armstrong Williams

Iran’s supreme leader spoke in recent days of “devilish” actions by the United States, underscoring the Iranian belief that our nation is “the Great Satan.” As always, the crowd began a familiar chant, “Death to America.” The administration did not condemn these vile realities. Instead, it asserted that this was intended for a “domestic political audience” and that it somehow proved that the United States needs to negotiate a deal with Tehran.

When someone, or in this case an aspiring dominator of the Middle East with a track record of supplying money, arms, training and other support to terrorist organizations, says that our death is their goal, we should take them at their word. The best way to safeguard our national security, stand with our allies and protect our interests in the Middle East would be actually preventing the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism from acquiring nuclear weapons, not merely creating delays. 

The president seems to think the American public is stupid. He campaigned on promises of “hope and change.” Lofty rhetoric, but we never saw much of either. Now, if the president signs an agreement that legitimizes and permits an Iranian path to a nuclear weapon, the only change he will have made is that we will have no hope left.
It is probably a good thing that Congress is stepping in, and legislating a role in the Iran nuclear agreement, and sanctions against Iran.  For Obama, it is probably a very good thing.  It was a lousy deal, and everyone knew it.  When everything falls apart before June 30, 2015, Obama will probably blame Congress for interfering. And if you ask me, I think he was hoping that Congress would get him out of such a bad deal for all of the reasons that Armstrong writes about.  But, now what?  Just sayin'...

From wnd.com Commentary

As if the Islamic Republic of Iran’s determined pursuit of nuclear weapons, track record of bloody terrorism, aggressive geopolitical power grabs, abhorrent human-rights violations and history of lies were not enough – President Obama’s recent interview should prove to everyone just how dangerous the framework agreement announced in Lausanne on April 2 really is.

In an interview with Tom Friedman, President Obama said, “I’ve been very clear that Iran will not get a nuclear weapon on my watch.” That last bit bears repeating: “… Iran will not get a nuclear weapon on my watch.” This confirms what many of us have suspected all along: The framework agreement will enable Iran to acquire a nuclear weapon; the mullahs in Tehran will just have to wait a little while.

Hiding under skillful rhetorical cover, Obama basically said that he believes a 10-year agreement keeps nuclear weapons out of Iran’s hands until dealing with the Islamic Republic becomes someone else’s problem. He essentially told the American public that our fears are true: He apparently cares about the fate of America’s national security and the security of American allies only while he’s sitting in the Oval Office.

As we all know, Iran has mastered the tactics of intransigence, deceit and waiting the Western powers out over the years. Indeed, a key component of Iran’s strategy has always been to buy more and more time through extensions of diplomatic talks and the stonewalling of transparent inspections and verifications of its nuclear facilities.

How's that hope, change workin' out? ~ By Joseph Farah

By Joseph Farah Posted: June 20, 2009 1:00 am Eastern © 2009 The economy is tanking. The Iranian people are revolting over a rigged re-election by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, and Barack Obama neither condemns the corruption nor encourages the protests. North Korea is threatening some real fireworks on Independence Day by firing a missile at Hawaii. So how's that hope and change working out for you? It's not that Obama isn't doing anything. He's doing plenty. But while national security and America's principled stature in the world are suffering, Obama is working overtime at dismantling all vestiges of a free-market economy. There's a silver lining under this dark cloud. Obama's policies – both at home and abroad – are not sustainable. They are counterproductive. They are destructive. They cannot and will not lead to a safer and more prosperous country. Days of reckoning are ahead of us. This is not necessarily a bad thing. Yes, there is the assurance of future pain. But if that pain results in a learning experience for Americans, it might all be worth it in the end. Is Obama bad news? Yes. Is he arguably in the worst president in U.S. history? Yes. Does it appear he is actually trying to undermine the very principles upon which the nation was founded? Yes. Do his policies invite and encourage attack from enemies? Yes. Could he possibly do more damage to the country if he were intentionally trying? No. Nevertheless, we have a teaching moment here... [CONTINUE READING!]

Exiled group says race on in Iran to build bomb ~ By Crispian Balmer

By Crispian Balmer Sat Jun 13, 2009 12:32pm EDT PARIS (Reuters) - Iran will redouble efforts to build an atomic bomb following Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's victory in a presidential election but could still be deterred by tough sanctions, the head of an exiled Iranian group said Saturday. Maryam Rajavi, leader of the French-based National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), told Reuters that Western powers had to abandon a "policy of appeasement" if they wanted to thwart Ahmadinejad's nuclear ambitions. "Sadly Iran will get the bomb if the West continues with its strategy of negotiations. This is just giving the mullahs more time to play with," she said in a telephone interview. "Lots of sources say they will get the bomb in 1-1/2 years, but Ahmadinejad will now speed things up and he will have the bomb in one year maximum." [CONTINUE READING]

Gates Warns N. Korea on Nuclear Transfers as Russia, Japan Talk

By Viola Gienger and Jae Hur May 31 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates warned North Korea against exporting technology from its nuclear weapons program as Russia and Japan called for a “serious” response to Kim Jong Il’s nuclear test. Gates held talks with his counterparts from Japan and South Korea yesterday to coordinate their response to North Korea’s May 25 nuclear test and subsequent missile firings, marking the first time the military chiefs of the three countries had met jointly. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and Japanese Prime Minister Taro Aso agreed during a telephone call yesterday that a “serious” response to North Korea’s actions is required, the Kremlin said in an e-mailed statement. “Both sides agreed on the need to react in the most serious way to these steps, which are a challenge to the international security system,” the statement said. North Korea fired six short-range missiles this past week in addition to detonating an atomic device. The U.S. and Japan are seeking a United Nations Security Council resolution that cuts North Korea’s international financial ties as well as China’s help in persuading to abandon its nuclear ambitions. “The transfer of nuclear weapons or material by North Korea to states or non-state entities would be considered a grave threat to the United States and our allies,” Gates told delegates at an annual Asian security conference in Singapore yesterday. “We would hold North Korea fully accountable for the consequences.” [Keep reading]
