Obama: Iran has the right to have nuclear energy!

Hussein Obama backed Iran’s claim that it has a right to nuclear energy. Israel, you’d better attack while you still can! More from Fox:

Obama told the BBC in an interview broadcast Tuesday that he believes “Iran has legitimate energy concerns, legitimate aspirations,” adding that the international community also “has a very real interest” in preventing a nuclear arms race.

The interview comes on the heels of Obama’s most important trip of his fledgling presidency, a face-to-face encounter with the Muslim world. Obama’s five-day pilgrimage to Egypt this week culminates with a long-promised speech on U.S. relations with the Muslim world.

With that, some speculation is swirling that the U.S. effort to reach Muslims is accompanied by its distancing itself from Israel, which is under pressure by the Obama administration to freeze its settlements in the West Bank.

Obama’s speech aims to help repair a strained relationship between the United States and the Muslim world that is critical to pressuring Iran to halt its uranium enrichment program, which the international community fears is a cover for building a nuclear bomb.
