A curious development.
Fox News reports that Barack Obama is offering Israel an nuclear guaranty against Iranian attack, signalling that a nuclear Iran is inevitable
Yah, but it signals more than that.
Haaretz, quoting an unnamed source, said the Obama administration would pledge under the proposed “nuclear umbrella” to respond to any Iranian strike on Israel with a “devastating U.S. nuclear response.”
So, if Iran nukes Israel, the USA will nuke Iran.
The theory behind this is simple: Israel doesn't want to retaliate because that will stir up all the other Arab states against Israel. Obama's offer fixes that problem by making the USA the object of Arab enmity.
Very good move! /sarcasm
“Who will convince the citizen in Kansas that the U.S. needs to get mixed up in a nuclear war because Haifa was bombed? And what is the point of an American response, after Israel’s cities are destroyed in an Iranian nuclear strike?,” [said a senior Bush administration official].
I'm waiting for Obama and his Dragon Lady HRC to explain that to us.

I'm confused....does the invocation of nuclear annihilation now endear other nations of the world to us?
Obviously, Obama wants the Arab world to love us...
