Panetta: Iran will not be allowed nukes

Panetta: A nuclear weapon in Iran is “unacceptable.” “We will take whatever steps necessary to stop it.” The Obama Admin has crossed the Rubicon; if Iran doesn’t back off, the president has basically promised all hell is gonna break loose. If Obama’s playing a game of chicken, thinking his rhetoric alone will be enough to stop Iran’s nuclear program and he has no intention of following thru, it’s likely he’s made a very bad gamble.
