In reality he’s a heartless Negro puppet of Anglo American imperialism.“This will not be quick, nor easy. But we must never forget this is not a war of choice, this is a war of necessity. If left unchecked, the Taliban insurgency will mean an even larger safe haven from which al-Qaeda would plot to kill more Americans." President Obama
A “war of necessity.” That’s pure unadulterated bovine excrement. There nothing necessary about escalating the war in Af-Pak, and it actually makes America more vulnerable to foreign acts of terrorism.
Anti-war activists should make the next Democratic Convention a recapitulation of Chicago 1968.

Riddle me this. You've been railing against govt Health Kkkare - regardless of the options the govt gives, because you reckon the whole medical system is designed to kill, but now BO "got heart" for some good PR work??? He's giving Ramadan blessings to Muslims around the world but strategizing for war in the next press conference. Yea I know its not a war against Muslims, but when there are Muslim civilians who won't live to see Eid because of his "war of neccesity" y'gotta wonder how is this "heart"?
And apart from the belief that we are all God's Sons and Suns, how do you confer this special status on Prez O? And none of the historic, symbolic jazz, I mean real talk.

This is an example of why Obama’s words have a hollow ring:
“Sources involved in the rescue operation following yesterday’s (6/24/09) US attack on a South Waziristan funeral procession reported that at least 35 civilians were among the slain, and that no prominent militant commanders were killed in the strike.”—antiwar.com
That’s 35 people who won’t be celebrating Ramadan this year. There are at least 200-300 more, in the civilian category, who are dead as a result of the drone attacks on Pakistan ordered by The O-Bomber.
[Of the 14 attacks targeting Pakistan in 2009, three were carried out in January, killing 30 people, two in February killing 55 people, five in March killing 36 people and four were conducted in the first nine days of April, killing 31 people.
Of the 14 strikes carried out in the first 99 days of April 2009, only one proved successful, killing two most wanted senior al-Qaeda leaders - Osama al Kini and Sheikh Ahmed Salim Swedan. Both had lost their lives in a New Year’s Day drone strike carried out in the South Waziristan region on January 1, 2009.]—Amir Mir
[Officially, the United States does not assassinate people. In the aftermath of the Church Committee investigations--which uncovered eight plots to kill Fidel Castro--Presidents Ford and Carter both signed executive orders banning assassinations. In practice, however, presidents have signed off on missions to kill political leaders who have ordered attacks on Americans. Ronald Reagan authorized air strikes on one of Muammar Qaddafi's residences in 1986, after Libyan agents bombed a German bar frequented by U.S. military personnel. And President Clinton ordered a cruise missile attack on an Al Qaeda camp after learning that the terrorist network was responsible for the 1998 bombings of the American Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.
Legally, successive administrations have justified these exceptions by arguing that the assassination ban does not apply to enemy commanders. Under this interpretation, Al Qaeda and Taliban leaders are fair game.
President Bush authorized several targeted killings in the first years after the September 11 attacks.]—Peter Bergen and Katherine Tiedemann
When it comes to killing, Barack Obama is not about to be outdone by his predecessors. Drone attacks have increased 30 percent since he took office. Collateral damage is an accepted occurrence of the so-called war on terror.
This smooth talking, political Iceberg Slim, believes that he can bamboozle the whole world. When the chickens come home to roost he’ll realize otherwise.
[Press reports suggest that over the last three years drone strikes have killed about 14 terrorist leaders. But, according to Pakistani sources, they have also killed some 700 civilians. This is 50 civilians for every militant killed, a hit rate of 2 percent — hardly “precision.” American officials vehemently dispute these figures, and it is likely that more militants and fewer civilians have been killed than is reported by the press in Pakistan.
Nevertheless, every one of these dead noncombatants represents an alienated family, a new desire for revenge, and more recruits for a militant movement that has grown exponentially even as drone strikes have increased.] -- DAVID KILCULLEN and ANDREW McDONALD EXUM
