A lesson never learnt
Civic piety on 9/11 from Mr Obama:
Remember how we came together as one nation, as one people, as Americans. This may be the greatest lesson of this day. No. It’s ‘Why were we attacked?’
In a speech at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars – while still a U.S. senator – Obama talked about the need to alleviate the root causes of terrorism: poverty; the lack of education; conflict, anarchy, and collapsed or collapsing states. He wants to invade countries for their own good. Wrong again.
Like the Bush administration before it, the Obama administration continues to ignore the obvious: U.S. foreign policy – more precisely, U.S. interventionism. From antiwar.com. Labels: politics
