Agree with Carol 100 per cent.....One thing I am sure of, the man is no idiot and only an idiot would attack Israel when he and his country were sure to be destroyed by either Israel or the US.

Most of the Iranian president's rhetoric is intended for internal consumption.....of course the US and Israel know that very well, but the "game" goes on.

Mr Obama deserves credit for puting some effort into the Israel/ Palestinian issue, but as I said before he was elected...even if HIS intentions are good, how far will he be allowed to go?
Its well known that the Jews run the American Financial system and in so doing, control American foreign policy, they are certainly not going to allow any real concessions to be given to the Palestinians.

Mr Obama served his purpose in removing the discredited Republican administration....a bold gamble which paid off, but now its back to reality for Mr Obama and America.
