Scholar Says 'Obama Like A Battered Woman' When It Comes To Iran

2015-03-07

[Daily Caller] President Obama is like a "battered woman" when it comes to negotiations with Iran, says Dr. Michael Ledeen, a freedom scholar at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies.

Obama keeps returning to Iran because he hopes Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, will change. But, of course, he doesn't. Ledeen made this comparison several times while participating in a panel discussion on Iranian hegemony at FDD Friday.

Ledeen's comment was meant to suggest Obama continues to negotiate with the Iranians because he hopes for positive results yet winds up disappointed, according to the senior director of communications at FDD.
Dr. Ledeen's analogy may apply to more than simply Iran.

#3 So, if the Iran deal is such a great deal why is it such a secret? Is is because it is a very, very bad deal and sucks? Is it because he is basically arming our enemy with nukes? That is called "traitor."

#2 More likely a secret mistress bumping uglies with the ayatollahs.

#1 The West has been displaying symptoms of Stockholm syndrome/battered-wife syndrome since long before Obama became an internationally known public figure.

As for Obama:
Is it really a reasonable assumption that he actually is on "God Damn America's" side?

Is he on the side of a Western civilization that is running a 'world in need because of white folk's greed?'
