How Obama enables Iran
Anne Bayefsky explains how President Obama's behavior and use of the United Nations has enabled Iran to defy the 'international community.' It is President Obama who decided last September to be the first American President to preside over a session of the Security Council and then deleted "nuclear nonproliferation - Iran" from the draft agenda. Obama himself chose the subject matter of that summit. He added nuclear disarmament to nuclear nonproliferation and turned nonproliferation into a game of "you first."And he can't even blame Bush for this one.
It is Obama who decided to host an April Security Summit touted as "the largest gathering of countries hosted by an American President . . . since the conference in San Francisco around the United Nations." He selected the subject matter and then refused to add Iran.
It is Obama who, for the first time, has linked the issue of Israeli concessions to the prospect of getting serious about an Iranian bomb - a policy that has all the hallmarks of looking for a Jewish scapegoat when an Iranian bomb becomes a reality.
And it is Obama who has now told European leaders that he will insist on an international conference to create a Palestinian state regardless of whether Palestinians move an inch to throw out their elected leaders, who continue to reject coexistence with Israel. Again, Obama's move places the UN in center court, since the conference is to be organized by former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan's brainchild, the Quartet. The Quartet is composed of the UN, Russia, the European Union and the United States. Rather than being an independent actor, "the UN" plays the role of errand boy for the Organization of the Islamic Conference.
So it is hardly surprising that Ahmadinejad leaped for the UN microphone.

Obama's foreign policy is quite intentional in that he's succeeded in moving America far along to where the Far Left has wanted it - even if its not all the way there yet.
What could go wrong indeed
Indeed Bush dropped the ball (soft ball) on Iran but no Obama cannot blame Bush for this and neither do I.
I swear this president is a mad-man. When I call him a narcissistic megalomaniac, 'one worlder,' utopian antisemite, I still think I am leaving something off.
I said in another post, those before Obama had to know the threat of Iran was only going to grow to an explosion state however it is indeed Obama who has let this genie actually emerge from the bottle.
I am worried to the pit of my soul.
