You say that but all presidents seem to take similar approaches to foreign policy once they get the "security briefing." I call it the big boy talk, the one where the newly elected president discovers just how little power they really have.

Kind of like how Obama was going to leave Iraq and Afghanistan that same year...

It is easy to talk like that but once you are privy to all the info things seem to change...

Not quite sure what you're referring to here - Obama never promised to end the war in Afganistan when he was running for President.

Unforced error on my part. He actually vowed the opposite. Iraq is what I was thinking and that ended up including Afghanistan for some unknown reason.

In all fairness, when Obama promised to re-assess the situation in Afganistan during his first year, some of the peaceniks took it to mean he would pull out the troops. When that didn't happen the far left reacted as if he went back on a promise; which he never made.

I doubt pulling out was ever on the table to begin with.

From what I remember actually he talked about sending more toops to Afghanistan.
 
Anyone remember 2008 Russia/Georgia South Ossetia incident. Georgia attacked Russian supporters first in a disputed territory, attacked a school, then got their *** smashed when Russia retaliated, leveled their towns, and threatened to wipe the whole country off the face of the earth. Georgia tried to play it off that Russia bullied them so America would intervene, but the whole world laughed at them instead. The point is that you can't pick fights with other countries then expect your "friends" to help you. Concerning Israel and Iran, I suspect that if either country attacked each other, other countries would be very hesitant to directly help. America will be in a very ugly spot supporting Israel because Iran has some powerful friends too. Economically, I think the super powers will find it better to help America and then rape Iran of its resources, but terrorism would be at all time high.
 
I can't wait until the Illuminati carry out their plan for population reduction. I'm sure Iran will be the first to go. Not Israel though. The Zionists / Illuminati will protect them.
