After weeks of intense negotiations in Switzerland, Foreign Ministers of the P5+1 and Iran agreed in principle, the framework of a potential deal that will prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. Here's what President Obama had to say about this development as reported by the BBC.
I think this is significant step in the right direction. President Obama has once again proven to be a brilliant President and strategist. The smartest the U.S. has seen in decades. This is a landmark achievement - to permanently dismantle Iran's enrichment of weapons grade fissile materials (plutonium and uranium) through diplomatic channels.
President Obama is the greatest Commander-in-Chief that the U.S. has seen in a while. And this is why. I believe it was Carl von Clausewitz who once said, that "war is the continuation of politics through other means." Obama has achieved these significant political goals without shedding a single drop of blood. War is not about attrition or killing people. It is about breaking the will of the enemy and winning them over, by any means necessary. The smartest guy is the one who is able to achieve this without shedding blood.
So yes, Obama is the smartest!! Applause to the the P5+1, John Kerry and the Iranian negotiators. History will thank President Obama for this one day. I am happy that the first black president is leaving such an enduring legacy.
