Was just reading Obama’s comments from yesterday:

Now, with respect to the United States and our interactions with Iran, I’ve always believed that as odious as I consider some of President Ahmadinejad’s statements, as deep as the differences that exist between the United States and Iran on a range of core issues, that the use of tough, hard-headed diplomacy — diplomacy with no illusions about Iran and the nature of the differences between our two countries — is critical when it comes to pursuing a core set of our national security interests, specifically, making sure that we are not seeing a nuclear arms race in the Middle East triggered by Iran obtaining a nuclear weapon; making sure that Iran is not exporting terrorist activity.

There is no such thing as “tough, hard-headed diplomacy” unless it’s backed up by willingness to use force or, at the very least, that the other side believes you will use force when necessary.

Does anyone in Iran or anywhere else in the world believe for one moment that Obama would use force to further American interests?
