No scaeagles, learn to read English. Jeebus.

"They don't pose a serious threat to us the way the Soviet Union posed a threat to us."

It's a comparative statement only and solely to the threat level of the Soviet Union during the Cold War, when the threat level was nuclear annihiliation of every human on earth.


Nowhere in that statement does Obama say Iran is not a threat, only that they are not the same level of threat that the Soviet Union WAS.



I'm really upset I apologized to you when you assured me you were not mischaracterizing Obama's statement. Either you're being obtuse about it, or you deliberately misled ME, which I'm not pleased about.
