What Is He Talking About?

Senator Biden, the Vice Presidential Nominee said last week, "Mark my words," the Democratic vice presidential nominee warned at the second of his two Seattle fundraisers Sunday. "It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. We're about to elect a brilliant 47-year-old senator president of the United States of America. Remember I said it standing here if you don't remember anything else I said. Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy."

"I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate," Biden said to Emerald City supporters, mentioning the Middle East and Russia as possibilities. "And he's gonna need help. And the kind of help he's gonna need is, he's gonna need you - not financially to help him - we're gonna need you to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it's not gonna be apparent initially, it's not gonna be apparent that we're right."

My take? Iran is planning on attacking Israel. A few rockets on Tel Aviv followed by a Naval Blockade of Israel and the Strait of Hormuz. President Obama will respond, by not supporting Israel and forcing a two-state solution on Israel and a return to the 1967 borders and a divided Jerusalem. Senator Biden is correct; we will not think he is right. Pretty frightening as Senator Biden actually get intelligence briefings and though he does not articulate it well, probably does know something about the threat.
