The point I'm making is....if they can't be destroyed, they can certainly be contained and made out of reach to those who created them.

I do not trust Obama's speeches. His latest remarks on Iran, on determination and diplomacy, to me were a clear display of self-contradiction.
I think he will put his own political and campaign interests first. He already plays with the fire, as I see it. And I think he will not attack Iran before getting re-elected, even if after november it is too late. Whether he would strike after November in case Iran is still vulnerable then, also is an open question to me. Maybe he would, maybe not. But not before being re-elected.
Whether he will jump in if the Israelis start all malone without asking for his kind permission, is something different. He probably cannot afford to not fight then. But he will not learn to love Israel any more for that.
In other words I do not give much for Obama's words. I never did, even when I admitted he held a speech again that impressed the crowds. I admit he is a gifted speaker, but that means nothing more than rethorics.
And rethorics are no arguments, but the compensation for lack of arguments. Sometimes amusing, but almost never constructive.
