The world's only ace in the hole in the Middle East is Israel.

If Ben believes Iran has a bomb ready to go, he'll take preemptive action.

And he won't phone Obama first.

Otherwise, can Washington spell "M-u-n-i-c-h"?

The ace in the hole isn't Israel with or without a bomb, Bob, it's the US strategy to change the Middle East balance of power with a US-Iranian entente---without nukes, period. To get out from under surpassingly costly Israeli and Saudi influence in Washington, a temporary alliance with Iran could counterbalance Iran and Turkey, give Iran a leg up on the Arabs and allow US to withdraw from the mess. It would be an US alliance of convenience.

The Turks, with the largest economy in the region and arguably strongest army in Europe, could counterbalance Iran and Israel.The Arabian peninsula could come under Iranian influence. The US, now prostrate economically and worn-out militarily, said before it went into Iraq it could fight two major wars successfully at the same time on two continents. Obama kept out of Arab Spring and sees his legacy as a no-wars president using diplomacy as "the world's only ace in the hole" because no one can bomb their way out if this one. Methinks anyway.

Obama is being played by Iran just as he was played by Putin because he is an incompetent amateur surrounded by equally incompetent a$$kissers. He did have time to host a round table at the WH concerning bisexual awareness; to address the needs of the bisexual community....it was not open to the public or the media. Another "transparent" presidential maneuver. These are the things that are important to him and he is still just a community organizer who happened to be elected president due to political correctiveness run amok in this country.

Do you post stuff like this intentionally so folks will think you've lost your mind? Obama is being played like a sock puppet by the Ayatollahs, and you see a brilliant statesman. But then, you only see what you want to see King.


A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

One must always keep in mind that the Canadian winter is never far away.

And that there isn't much to do for 9 months out of the year.

Except drink.

Our economy is gone because of big Government.

Our Military is "worn-out" because the radicals let women and queers in our Military.

How can you expect to have a strong Military when it's run by queers and women ?

C'mon, Joe. There's nothing wrong with the men and women who serve and sacrifice. Politicians wear them down with endless overseas ventures to rid all evil from the world. A neighbour, Capt. Nicole Goddard, had her head blown off by an RPG directing fire against the Taliban. Our women serve as do others of different sexual orientation. I haven't heard anyone say Canadians aren't good to have around in a fight. Nor Americans, Brits, Turks, Poles, Germans and---you know the rest.

Maybe not an ace in the hole, but one card that's being played is cair. If you're thinking wtf, you'd be right, it's their new name. Membership way down but operational budget way up, seems they're much more transparent about their middle eastern funding than the administration is about targeting US citizens.

So what, well cair has hundreds of sit down meetings with the current folks in office and justice just cleared cair to 'work' with the fbi. One would think this type of accommodation fits well with the ideology of say the intel director and islamic gun control.

Hey, on a brighter note, bo gets snubbed three requests in a row by the iranians for a little mutual respect and kumbaya. Sure, puppeteering an ace in the hole is delicate stuff, but no photo op?, wonder who's in charge....
