A BLUFF?
Reader comment on item: Obama Turns on Israel
Submitted by Sunshine (Canada), Nov 8, 2013 at 19:15
Could this all be a bluff for diplomatic purposes, both ways? Iran had a lot of problems with one of its hard-water plants recently... real problems. In my mind, it is impossible that both Obama and Kerry would be that stupid... therefore, I'm hanging on to the bluff theory.
