Clinton at State

The Times: Reports on the Hillary Clinton confirmation hearings, Clinton stressed the need for more Diplomacy but also stressed that Iran could not be allowed to become Nuclear Armed Power. It can be argued that Obama should try direct talks with Iran, Ronald Reagan made a attempt to talk but without any success, the worry for a Obama Administration is that Iran will look like it wants to talk, it will talk and talk for months and then announce it has the bomb. This will place Obama in between Israel on side; Israel will bomb Iran with our without the support for the USA and then on the other side you will have the American left, they will support Iran having the bomb, they will argue that since Israel has the bomb why not Iran. They will not point out that Iran wants to destroy Israel and that Israel is a Democracy and a friend of the USA. The times are changing in the USA.
