Sounds like Obama is "greenlighting" an Israeli attack on Iran:

President Barack Obama said the U.S. will do whatever is necessary to prevent Iran from gaining a nuclear weapon and echoed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s declaration that Israel has the right to “defend itself, by itself.”
Iran’s nuclear program and the turmoil in Syria were two of the main topics after the two leaders met for several hours at the prime minister’s residence. The U.S. is investigating claims that a chemical weapon had been used in Syria and that it would be a “game changer” if that was verified, Obama said at a press conference alongside Netanyahu in Jerusalem.
Netanyahu said he was “absolutely convinced” of Obama’s resolve in preventing Iran from building a nuclear bomb, adding that diplomatic and economic pressure must be backed up by a “clear and credible threat of military action.”

“Each country has to make its own decisions when it comes to the awesome decision to engage in any kind of military action,” Obama said. “Israel is differently situated than the United States, and I would not expect the prime minister to make a decision about his country’s security and defer that to any other country.”

From an Iranian point of view, they have no other option than to develop a nuke. A nuke gives them a great measure of safety. How many nuclear armed countries get taken over?

Everyday we are getting closer and closer to the inevitable conflict.

Big business gets its profits, the military its armaments, and sheeple war costs.

Worked out for the Chinese, they will get a lot of oil from Iraq and didn't have to bring in any soldiers.
