Stay calm and carry on.

Obama gets it, a rare leader that does.....no one seems to have noticed that ALL nations in the coalition fighting ISIS does not include Israel...and all these coalition nations support Obama on both ISIS and Iran strategy, including Iran with ground troops, only one nation "boldly" puts up road blocks to peace, a nation allied with Saudi and Qatar.

Sorry to bring up facts into the discussion.

Actually, at least for Bibi, it may do the opposite re his election prospects: I hope so!
