Buchanan: Collision with Iran likely, will help Obama politically
According to Buchanan, the United States won’t go to all-out war with Iran, but there will be some sort of conflict.

“I think that before the November election we’re going to have maybe not a war with Iran, but I believe some kind of collision and some kind of confrontation,” Buchanan said. “I don’t think the Israelis are going to attack, but there’s a lot of forces moving into the Gulf. The sanctions I think are hurting very badly.”

“And I believe if you did have this collision, or do have this collision, I think it will by and large benefit Barack Obama,” he added.

It'll still be Bush's fault. Somehow.

O would seriously be overplaying his hand on thinking that he could control a conflict with Iran. Iran would want to show the world and the gulf states in particular that they are not afraid of the United States and can also go toe to toe with the US military in a fight. They will use both conventional and uncoventional methods of warfare. It would be very bad politically for O as well if Israel makes the first move and goes unilaterally, it will give the electorate the impression that the White House doesn't back Israel (a major strategic ally in the middle east) and for all intents and purposes has turned it's back on it.

Just something to consider
