And I firmly believe Obama is an idiot.
Via Free Beacon:
President Barack Obama still believes that “an opportunity remains for diplomacy” with the Iranian regime, which continues to enrich uranium and refuses to answer basic questions about its disputed nuclear program.
“I firmly believe that an opportunity remains for diplomacy — backed by pressure — to succeed,” Obama told more than 13,000 attendees at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee’s annual conference. “The United States and Israel both assess that Iran does not yet have a nuclear weapon, and we are exceedingly vigilant in monitoring their program.”
Economic sanctions are beginning to wear the regime down, Obama said, noting that there is still time for Iran to join the international “community of nations.”
“Sanctions are continuing to increase, and this July — thanks to our diplomatic coordination — a European ban on Iranian oil imports will take hold,” Obama said. “Faced with these increasingly dire consequences, Iran’s leaders still have the opportunity to make the right decision. They can choose a path that brings them back into the community of nations, or they can continue down a dead end.”
