(WSJ) In the second time in two weeks, Islamic Fascist Iran patrol boats fired on a commercial ship as it traveled in international waters through the Strait of Hormuz.
On Thursday, as Obama was attempting to assure Gulf State representatives meeting at Camp David that the United States has their back regarding security cooperation and his (naive and delusional) hopes that the region would achieve ‘the kind of peace and good neighborliness with Iran…’ a Singapore flagged commercial oil tanker was fired upon by Iranian naval vessels, raising new concerns about Iran’s attempts to exert more control of commerce in international waters of the Persian Gulf.
Three Iranian patrol boats opened fire on the 600 foot long ‘Alpine Eternity’ when the tanker’s crew refused to follow Iran’s Navy direction, then they chased the tanker after it issued a call for help.
Meanwhile today in Brussels, the Obama Administration will resume nuclear negotiations (that it should walk away from) with the fanatical Iranian regime, in an effort to reach a deal by next months deadline.

(AP) Obama pledged America’s ‘ironclad commitment’ to anxious Arab States today to help protect their security pointedly mentioning the potential use of military force and offering strong assurances that a nuclear agreement with Islamic Fascist Iran wouldn’t leave them more vulnerable.
Obama promised that the U.S. would join with the ‘Gulf Cooperation Council’ (GCC) nations to ‘deter and confront an external threat to any GCC state’s territorial integrity.
Speaking at the close of the summit with Gulf State representatives that were in attendance at Camp David, Obama expressed hope that the region would achieve “the kind of peace and good neighborliness with Iran that I think so many of the countries here seek.”
A written annex accompanying the joint statement from the Gulf State representatives (as the leaders of Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman and Bahrain snubbed Obama and were no-shows at his conference and sent their representatives) laid out what Obama claims that he meant when he promised “our ironclad commitment to the security of our Gulf partners.”
- Flashback: Remember that seemingly forgotten 1994 Budapest Memorandum that President Clinton executed with Ukraine together with British PM John Major and Russian President Boris Yelstin as part of the denuclearization of the former Soviet Union, promising to protect the sovereignty of the Ukrainian territorial borders from an invading army, which Obama has reneged on.
On the 09 March, 2014 I wrote here and again on the 29 July here that Obama was tested by the Russian’s (as Iran watched) whether or not the United States commitments to protect the territorial sovereignty of an allied nation actually was worth the paper it was printed on.
What if any real assurances do our ‘Gulf partners’ have that Obama will actually mean what he says when he’s pledged America’s integrity by assuring our ‘ironclad commitment’ to deter and confront an external threat to any GCC state’s territorial integrity?
Obama’s reneged on a previous ironclad commitments made by a former administration, why won’t he just renege on another?
