Netanyahu admits sanctions and timelines may work.

[Dilloduck]

Netanyahu has argued that setting a clear boundary for Iran's uranium enrichment activities and imposing stronger economic sanctions could deter Tehran from developing nuclear weapons and mitigate the need for military action.

They can put a troop withdrawal date out for afghan but they can't put a compliance date on iran. We live in Bizzaro World.

[Dilloduck]

Agreed--one thing for sure--We will never find out what's really going on by listening to the headlines. Too much is said for the benefit of the world stage.

[Kathianne]

Even Dillo agrees, Netanyahu is right, Obama is trying to wait out November.

[Dilloduck]

I didn't agree with anything. Obama could be putting on a show----trying to distance himself from Israel before they strike. I have no clue what these yahoos are trying to do but I'll be really pissed if it's war for us on another front.

An unusual snub, Obama to avoid meeting with Netanyahu
By Matt Spetalnick and Allyn Fisher-Ilan

WASHINGTON/JERUSALEM | Tue Sep 11, 2012 7:11pm EDT

WASHINGTON/JERUSALEM (Reuters) - In a highly unusual rebuff to a close ally, the White House said on Tuesday that President Barack Obama would not meet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a U.S. visit later this month, as tensions escalated over how to deal with Iran's nuclear program.

The apparent snub, coupled with Netanyahu's sharpened demands for a tougher U.S. line against Iran, threatened to plunge U.S.-Israeli relations into crisis and add pressure on Obama in the final stretch of a tight presidential election campaign.

Whats so unusual about it? Obama has been shafting our allies ever since he first sat on the THRONE!
Now he plays for time , wanting the election to be over before he completely sides with Israel's enemies. Because to do so before the election would mean a sure defeat!
Remember in the past he said, in the end he would side with Islam? His words, words of a muslim in hiding folks.
America had better wake up and I mean damn quick!-Tyr

Is that it? Insults ?

[taft2012]

Obama is trying to wait out November.

And why not? He's got a compliant news media in his pocket who wouldn't dare run a story about how, in 2008, he promised to sit down with Iran and solve this problem.... but actually hasn't done shyte about it.

It's just another example of what Americans will tolerate abroad as long as the gubmint keeps them welfare checks coming in the mail every month.

^^^^^^^^^^Now even your one liners are getting shorter. Its only an insult if you admit that it is true! I guess we just got such an admission directly from you! I merely stated these three words about you-- You posted it.. You gave an unsolicited admission..
Who says a countryboy cant bait?

It's nothing unusual. Obama didn't kowtow to Netanyahu before either. Why should he do it now?
