But of course, Obama has been very clear that he hates Israel.
So? What if he does?
If he had snubbed someone that you dislike then it wouldn't be an issue. But since Republicans and Neocons pays lip-service to Israel like good little lapdogs, everyone else must follow suit?
Most people don't even know why we are supposedly so tight with Israel...they just follow along because they are afraid to look antisemitic.
ETA: If all Obama has to do is leak a little info to keep us out of another war....I'm ok with that. I'd rather Israel get a little pissed then for my brothers to go to the Middle East to die!

Oh please, even if Iran was trying to obtain nuclear weapons(which they are not) this idea that as soon as they get one they will attack Israel and in turn be destroyed not long after is completely absurd and based on fantasy, not reality. Just like every other country it would be used as a deterrence. Oh and if you want to talk about hurting the Iranian people, bear in mind that the nuclear power project is extremely popular in Iran, sanctions being placed against them by the west is what hurts the average Iranian, never the people in power, just like half a million children that died in Iraq as a result of sanctions.
Iran has every right to nuclear power and the benefits it brings to a country.

1 - A POTUS isn't supposed to have his personal or religious beliefs interfere with his duties.
Leaking the war plans of a country that is supposed to be our ally is definately something Obama shouldn't be doing.
2 - Go back and read the entire post in context. I was saying that it could explain why his administration leaked Israels war plans. It's because Obama hates Israel.
3 - My post proves the point that what Obama said in the opening post was bull. He does indeed have a problem keeping plans secret.
blah blah blah .. it's like an old record that never wears out ..
2 - Who I like or dislike is irrelevant to the conversation.

He went on, "I also don't, as a matter of sound policy, go around advertising exactly what our intentions are.
That's a load of BS.

Last week, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta leaked to the Washington Post that “there is a strong likelihood that Israel will strike Iran in April, May or June – before Iran enters what Israel described as a ‘zone of immunity’ to commence building a nuclear bomb.” Now, the only reason to leak that information is to stop the attack. In June 2010, the Administration leaked a secret deal between the Saudis and the Israelis that would have given Israel access to Saudi airspace for the strike.
Obamas administration is full of planned 'leaks' of what our 'allies' plans are ...
But of course, Obama has been very clear that he hates Israel.

Please attempt to use logic in your answer to my question. Leave the hate for Israel at the door.
Do you honestly think Iran stands a snowballs chance in hell, at standing toe to toe with Israel?
If you do, you are either still using emotions in answering, or you know absolutely nothing about Israels military power.
I definitely do not mean to offend you, but find it hard to believe that anyone of sound mind thinks Iran can "wipe out" Israel.
