"Talk is no substitute for action, our patience is not unlimited."
And what, pray tell, are you going to do when/if "our" patience runs out? He goes on to say, "Going forward, we expect to see swift action," this makes it the umpteenth time he has requested Iran to take "concrete steps," to follow through on their promises.
In other words, stop or I'll say stop again.
Obama's rhetoric has no teeth. The mullahs have no intention on curbing their desire to have a nuclear weapon and nothing short of direct action will get a message across that we won't allow them to posses any. Here's a novel thought. How about blockading the Persian gulf? Or, let Israel deal with them. Recalling the 1981 textbook air strike they conducted in Iraq, I'd say they are more than capable of dealing with Iran.
But, we already know the support this administration has for Israel, to quote Rahm Emmanuel, “The task of forming an international coalition to thwart Iran’s nuclear program will be made easier if progress is made in peace negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians.“
In other words, when Israel kowtows to the Palestinians and makes concessions, we'll consider ratcheting up the heat on Iran and possibly threaten some sort of direct action, though whatever that may be is anyone's guess.
Not even one year into his first term, we are seeing that Joe Biden's "ominous" foretelling that Obama would be tested. Well, it appears that he's being tested now and all we hear is barking. So much for the "backbone of steel."
Maybe they should hire Team America.
