Foreign policy-wise, very little has changed since the Bush administration. I'm happy Obama seeks to close Guantanamo, but what about ending the "War On Terror" and its prerequisite Bush Doctrine of pre-emptive strikes? Bush and Obama's pre-emptive military strikes are illegal as hell.
Why hasn't Obama or any member of the Democratic or Republican Party publicly stated that the Islamic world, including Islamic terrorists, have a legitimate complaint against the U.S. and Israel?
Why hasn't Obama or any member of the Democratic or Republican Party publicly discussed the Islamic world's, (including Islamic terrorists) complaints against the U.S. and Israel?
Why hasn't Obama and/or any member of the Democratic or Republican Party openly discussed how Bush and the neocons falsely mislead Americans into believing that the Islamic world, including Islamic terrorists, attacked us because they "hate our freedoms and lifestyles?"
1.) Requires one to believe that the Islamic world has no legitimate complaint against the U.S. and Israel;
2.) Requires one to believe that the Islamic world hates us for "our freedoms and lifestyle" and due to Muslim "religious beliefs."
3.) Requires one to believe that "the solution" and answer to Islamic terrorism against America is to "hunt'em down and kill'em all."
Obama, Biden and virtually every Democratic and Republican politician and pundit in Washington believe these three "pre-requisites" for believing in the endless "War On Terror." None of these "professionals" have or offer an end game for ending the "War On Terror."
Remember, George W. Bush and Dick Cheney repeatedly warned us over and over, "Terrorism will not end in our lifetime or our children's lifetime." This widely-accepted falsehood is the driving force behind Obama and the Democratic Party's support of the Bush Doctrine of pre-emptive strikes and U.S. military occupations. If Obama were truly insightful and represented "change," Obama would be talking about how our government can END, END, END, END, the "War On Terror," by acknowledging the Islamic world's complaint of the U.S. and Israel AND stop doing the things which motivate terrorists to attack us and the Islamic world to hate us; namely, U.S. support, funding and arming of Israel's illegal occupation of the Palestinian territories AND the U.S. military occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Most Americans STILL DON'T KNOW WHY we were attacked in the FIRST World Trade Center attack, much less the SECOND World Trade Center attack. Most Americans STILL DON'T KNOW WHY the Islamic world hates us and why terrorists target America for terrorist attacks. Such misdirection and confusion and ignorance cannot be attributed to the terrorists themselves, because each and every time, the Islamic terrorists have repeatedly warned America BEFORE AND AFTER WHY THEY ATTACKED US! But the U.S. media refuses to communicate these facts to the American public.
Islamic terrorists have always given the same, exact reason for attacking America: U.S. support of Israel.
U.S. funding and arming Israel's forty-year illegal occupation of the Palestinian territories. Even the 9/11 Commission asked the FBI, "What was the motivation of the 9/11 hijackers?" The FBI replied in a 9/11 Commission hearing that the reason the 9/11 hijackers attacked us was because of U.S. support of Israel.

Considering how U.S. support of Israel is the driving force behind terrorism exacted against America, why doesn't President Obama END U.S. SUPPORT OF ISRAEL? Considering how the Israeli government has been illegally occupying the Palestinian territories for over forty years now, why doesn't President Obama END U.S. SUPPORT OF ISRAEL? Considering how the Israeli government has been systematically killing and abusing the living hell out of Palestinians for over forty years now, why doesn't President Obama END U.S. SUPPORT OF ISRAEL? Considering how the Israeli government has already been sanctioned by our State Dept. for unlawfully using our American weapons in an offensive capacity, why doesn't President Obama END U.S. SUPPORT OF ISRAEL? Considering how Israel continues to use our American-made and provided weapons in an offensive capacity, why doesn't President Obama END U.S. SUPPORT OF ISRAEL?
