What exactly looks like a power grab? The simulation?

I don't see any description or explanation of the simulation, so it's hard to put any faith into it's results.

It doesn't say "Obama will let Iran have nukes." either; it's saying that we will ultimately fail in preventing their acquisition.

www.israelnationalnews.com...

A simulation conducted at Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government over the weekend predicts that the United States will fail in its efforts to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, and will, for lack of other options, attempt to convince Iran not to use those weapons.


If their model is sound then hopefully it will help point out flaws in the current strategy. Predicting the future is impossible though, I won't base any opinions on the results of a "Simulation" that I know nothing of.

How many and what variables did they use to run this? I didn't see any hard information in either article I read.

It is becoming more and more clear each day that Obama is no friend of Israel.


Lets see checking U.S. Constitution for the “Must be a friend of Israel clause!”

What was that country’s name again?

Actually the framers of the Constitution did not want us taking sides in foreign disputes.

Running a nation is a BUSINESS and not a FRIENDSHIP, don’t think so? Talk to the IRS about that on April 15th!

What is amazing though is the sleazy way some people have the audacity to just come right out and say PUT ISRAEL BEFORE YOUR OWN COUNTRY…like we are really supposed to be doing that for some spectacular reason.

The billions of CHARITY we GIVE ISRAEL is never enough of course. Like it is some how our fault here in America ISRAEL IS A PERENIAL CHARITY CASE.

No they should be allowed to pick fights with other nations and us to step in and protect them on top of it?

Zionist Israel is 61 years old, when is it going to stop acting like a 3 year old, and when are its supporters going to stop acting like 2 year olds.

Want to know who else is not a friend of Israel? It’s Zionist Government and suspect characters who try convincing Americans that being a good American means putting Israel before the United States.

Nothing more dangerous than a stupid friend, that’s for sure!

Israel meanwhile refuses to sign the Nuclear Regulatory Treaties of allow inspections of it's Nuclear Facilities by International Atomic Energy Agency Inspections.

Iran happens to be in full compliance while Israel is the world's worst offender.

A simulation eh? Since when have we been able to accurately forecast human behavior? Sounds like more republican rhetoric.

Iran will not be allowed to be a nuclear armed power, I don't see how they will be allowed to keep them. You may disagree, but my scenario is a likely one.
