Obama says goal 'to eliminate' Iran threat

Democratic presumptive presidential nominee Barack Obama vowed Wednesday he would work to "eliminate" the threat posed by Iran to security in the Middle East and around the globe.

"There's no greater threat to Israel or to the peace and stability of the region than Iran," he told the powerful pro-Israel lobby, the American Israel Public Affairs Council (AIPAC).

"The danger from Iran is grave and real and my goal will be to eliminate this threat," he said, adding loudly to add emphasis that he would "everything" to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.

"The Iranian regime supports violent extremes. And challenges across the region. It pursues a nuclear capability that could spark a dangerous arms race," he told AIPAC's annual meeting in Washington.

Calling for "aggressive, principled diplomacy" to tackle the problem of the Islamic regime in Tehran, he also warned he would never take the military option off the table in guaranteeing US and Israeli security.

"As president of the United States, I would be willing to lead tough and principled diplomacy with the appropriate Iranian leader at a time and place of my choosing -- if, and only if -- it can advance the interests of the United States."


Is obama-lama-ding-dong bi-polar?  First he wants to "make nice" with Imagonnajihad, now this.



If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

i LIST


I listened to Obamalama this morning, it sounded amazingly like what George Bush has been saying about Iran all along. I don't think Obamalama has ever had an original thought in his head. Didn't he name his book after something his buddy Jeramiah BullFrog Wright said?

If Bush said it, the same people who support Obama would say Bush is a war-mongering right wing nutjob......but if Obama says it....well, it's okay. :hammer:
