Occurs to me point made in previous post about connecting Gaza to Obama's true intentions viz Iran's nuke program may be the most interesting thing no one's talking about when it comes to Gaza: if you indeed were serious about all options being on the table - I never believed that but could only infer that belief from somewhat vague and subjective sources - but if Obama indeed was serious then taking care of Hamas and its extensive tunnels system would be an absolutely necessary preparatory step to any military strike on Iran's nuke program - that Obama seems to want to stop Israel from degrading Hamas' capabilities in this way may not amount to solid proof that Obama is lying about all options being on the table but it does look like strong circumstantial evidence, certainly strong enough I'd say to convince both Israel and Iran that Obama cannot for the former be trusted or need not for the latter be feared when it comes to stopping Iran's nuke program.

Again, I've always believed this to be true and think Iran has acted throughout these 'negotiations' as if they as well believe it to be the case - I think Iran has acted all along as if they have the upper hand in these negotiations because they feel Obama needs a face saving agreement much more than they need fear retributions from refusing to sufficiently compromise - anyway, I've always suspected Obama to be lying about all options being on the table but when you start connecting the threat of Hamas to Iran's nuke program and realize that Obama and Kerry are not making that connection, then you no longer need to be a sorry mean spirited cynic like me to start suspecting Dear Leader of being a man for whom the truth is a very relative thing indeed.
