BARACK OBAMA AND THE NUCLEAR CRISIS

I listened to Barack Obama's speech on stopping Iran and Korea from continueing their nuclear weapons manufacturing , and, I felt somewhat disturbed in thinking how he would endeavour to bring an end to this stalemate, especially as far as Iran is concerned.

The western world has till this far managed to call a truce, albeit a tentative truce with one another concerning nuclear proliferation. However, Israel on the other hand wants to take out all the nuclear sites in Iran and, she has even called on some of the Arab states to help her in her quest.

Barack Obama has thus far managed to maintain his political dignity, unlike George W Bush , who, through sheer arrogance, or call it what you will , managed to incur the wrath of the world, by his infamous statement, "If you are not with us, you are against us! (sic) We shall then proceed to search for weapons of mass distruction in your country!

We all know what he has done to Iraq. Is a similar fate awaiting Iran? What do you think? Is Obama going to follow in his predecessors footsteps?

I sincerely hope not. But something needs to be done. Something soon. Iran insists she is not enriching uranium for nuclear weaponry. The western world does not agree. But where lies the answer?
