At first one thinks Russia's threat to change its position on Iran's nuke program is simply more quality humor from comrade Putin because who ever thought Russia to really be on our side when it came to Iran's nukes - but then you realize this is damn clever of Putin, this is him sticking the knife in, this is him thoroughly displaying how Obama's progressive's view of the world [ie I too dislike and distrust traditional notions of American power] and cult of personality approach to foreign policy [ie people will do what I say because I'm the celebrity black president and just oh so cool to be friends with] has left him utterly exposed and vulnerable - meaning, according to my take on the Iran 'negotiations', if these talks are indeed merely a ruse designed to keep Israel in check, slow walk us to 'containment' and rescue Obama from his hollow threat of force of course being on the table and he'd never allow Iran to nuke up etc etc - and if Russia playing along with this show lent credence to the ruse - Putin's threat to pull back the curtain leaves Obama as the not so great wizard peddling platitudes and fake grandeur: to wit, give Iran what they want and keep your nose out of my business or I'll humiliate you by making it clear your threat of the military option being on the table was never anything more than a lie told by a coward.
