Current Event #1

President Barack Obama says that should Iran continue on the path to obtain and develop nuclear weapons (for potential use against Israel or the US), he will take action in order to ensure the protection and safety of the United States, for the US and Iran have been on shaky terms for quite a while. Nevertheless, Obama would like to primarily remain more lax and diplomatic in his dealings with that country, for volatile conditions help no one (though the US has placed sanctions on some of Iran's oil companies).  Obama also plans to meet with the Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu. Hopefully the two nations will not have to come head to head in upcoming events, for the recent wars with Iraq and Afghanistan have already caused significant deficits, and our country can withstand only so much further economic strife.
