Senator Obama is great orator and I remind readers of this blog that I support him.

However, does he really believe that Iran is the “greatest strategic challenge to the United States” in the region in a generation? What about Usama Bin Laden? Not only was he a threat but he carried out his threats and his followers are very active in the region.

Iran offered to negotiate with the United States in 2003 in a letter that is well documented but it did not fit into the Bush agenda.

Obama wants the Evangelical Christian and Orthodox Jewish vote but does he really need to take his oratory this far?
