After Obama offers up 300 Americans to help coordinate the fight against ISIS, the Iranian supreme leader says intervention in Iraq is unnecessary.
Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei expressed strong opposition on Sunday to intervention in Iraq by the United States or anyone else, saying Iraqis themselves could bring an end to violence there, the official IRNA news agency reported. Khamenei, who has the last word on all matters of state, added in remarks to judiciary officials that Washington aimed to keep Iraq under its control and place its own stooges in power. The conflict there was not sectarian, but was really between those who wanted Iraq in the US camp and those who sought Iraq's independence, IRNA reported. "We are strongly opposed to US and other (countries') intervention in Iraq," IRNA quoted Khamenei as saying. "We don't approve of it, as we believe the Iraqi government, nation and religious authorities are capable of ending the sedition. And God willing, they will do so."

something tells me that if Iran opposes it then we should probably do it, but then again Obama won't do anything meaningful here. He is too little, too late. (

He's been hiding out at the gym too. The news the other night filmed him lifting very small weights. I chuckled because even I would have no trouble lifting them.

Psst, I think he was born with it. Could be wrong.

There you are Mr President, the Iranians just gave you an out. Back to golf or whatever it is you do.
