Those two destroyers ...
As for Iran, this is a continuation of 1979. Don't get in the way.

If behind the scenes "we" have given them the green light, then in public "we" will distance ourselves from "the solution," although, as has been in the past, there will be imaging and nav available at a minimum with backup for a retaliation strike to neutralize the capacity of Iran to do any irreparable harm .. Israel or shipping.
If the strike(s) are early enough in October .. by mid-October, and if the current administration has tacitly acquiesced, like has been done in the past the current administration can side with Israel, back up Israel, and will be a shoe-in at the general election with probably at least 15 point lead coming out the other side.
IMO Obaminable gave the green light on the pirates and OBL ... that's base hits in my book. If he green lights the home run ... with bases loaded ... it would be tough for me NOT to vote for him ... as difficult as it could be. If he is bidding like he has a weak hand, but holding a royal flush waiting for the call....then he gets an atta boy from me.
Here's the bottom line ... it's gonna happen. Do it now? Or wait awhile?
