Sarah Palin: Obama administration needs to "harden" to Iran on the basis of information leaked diplomatic cable

Sarah Palin sought to establish his foreign policy credentials Tuesday with a new opinion piece arguing that the Obama administration needs to "harden" to Iran on the basis of information leaked diplomatic cable that she had reported earlier.

The former governor of Alaska in the U.S. write Today:

Iran continues to defy the international community in its efforts to acquire nuclear weapons. Arab leaders in the region rightly fear a nuclear armed Iran. We suspected this before, but now we know for sure because of leaked diplomatic cable. King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia "often urged the U.S. to attack Iran to end its nuclear weapons program," according to these communications. Jordanian officials said the Iranian nuclear program must be stopped by any means necessary. Officials from the UAE and Egypt, the country was evil, an "existential threat" and a sponsor of terrorism. If Iran does not stop at obtaining nuclear weapons, could spark a nuclear arms race in which these countries seek their own nuclear weapons to protect themselves.

The "leaked diplomatic cable" that Palin talks about, of course, offices dump published as part of Wikileaks' most recent document, a move considered "traitors", later wondering why the group's founder, Julian Assange, not continued with the same urgency to pursue al Qaeda and Taliban leaders. "

The overall goal of op-ed on Palin is that the potential danger of Iran - nuclear or not nuclear - it is enough to justify an escalation of the current economic sanctions the United Nations:

Much more can be done, such as the prohibition of insurance for shipments to Iran, a ban on all military sales to Iran, putting an end to all commercial loans, the prohibition of all financial transactions with Iranian banks, limiting Iran's access to international capital markets and banking, the closure of airspace and waters of Iran's national air and shipping lines, and, above all, an end to Iran's ability to import refined petroleum.

Palin made another foray into foreign policy during the summer, when he attacked his manifesto on Facebook. In that statement, which called for a sacred defense budget, a reaffirmation of ties with Israel without conditions, and the elimination of a timetable for the withdrawal of troops in Afghanistan.
