Obama is now aiming to get the Nobel Prize for Economics.

Now that Obama will not have to forfeit his Nobel Peace Prize, he may delegate the job of bombing Iran to someone else, so that his hands come out clean.

Even if he signals others to do this dirty job for him, he knows that the entire Muslim world will be pitted against the US and Israel. That will not help him in his re-election bid in 2012..

Bombing Iran would be an expensive proposition while the US economy is already in the tanks. Obama has to first retrieve it, to show himself a 'notable' economist.

So what will Obama do? He'll do NOTHING! He'll just sit cool.
