    'White House: Our Attempts at Keeping Iran from Getting Nukes Through Diplomacy ‘Didn’t Work’'

    'On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “The Story,” White House National Security Communications Adviser John Kirby stated that
    Iran will not be allowed to get a nuclear weapons capability, and “We
    had tried to do this through diplomacy. Obviously, that didn’t work, because the Iranians were not willing to negotiate in good faith.”

    Kirby said, “President Biden has made it very clear, we will not, will
    not allow Iran to achieve a nuclear weapons capability, and we will not
    take any option off the table to prevent that outcome. I’m not going to

    Very interesting!
    Perhaps they are trying to say that when Biden was more capable,
    he was intending on undoing one of Obama's mistakes???

    speculate here today and tell you what will happen or will not happen
    over the next 40-some-odd days, but the President has been
    crystal-clear, they will not be allowed to achieve that outcome, that
    kind of capability. And we want to make sure, on the national security
    team, that he has all the options available to him to prevent that sort
    of outcome.”

    Host Martha MacCallum then asked, “So, are you saying President Biden
    would also consider airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities before his
    term is up?”

    Kirby answered, “President Biden has made clear that Iran will not have that capability. We had tried to do this through diplomacy. Obviously,
    that didn’t work, because the Iranians were not willing to negotiate in good faith. All other options remain available to the President. But,
    again, I won’t get ahead of his decisionmaking.'

    I pray that Biden's parting one finger salute won't be starting a war.

    The war has already started in everything but bodies and name.

    "Since the war began, the U.S. Congress has voted through five bills that
    have provided Ukraine with ongoing aid, doing so most recently in April
    2024. The total budget authority under these bills�the �headline� figure
    often cited by news media�is $175 billion. The historic sums are helping a broad set of Ukrainian people and institutions, including refugees, law enforcement, and independent radio broadcasters, though most of the aid
    has been military-related."
