Obama: "Iranian regime author of its own isolation"

Obama2008 — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 16:39:04 +0000

The following are some excerpts (and video) of Senator Obama's speech yesterday about his future policies towards Iran's regime:

The Iranian regime supports violent extremists and challenges us across the region. It pursues a nuclear capability that could spark a dangerous arms race and raise the prospect of a transfer of nuclear know-how to terrorists. Its president denies the Holocaust and threatens to wipe Israel off the map. The danger from Iran is grave, it is real, and my goal will be to eliminate this threat.
