Obama, Iraq, Al-Qaeda

March 9, 2008

Obama is Al-Qaeda’s worst nightmare, not only because he won’t be afraid to use the military to strike them, but because he understands that this is only step one. The United States will not be safe until hatred is not seen by our fellow human beings in the Middle East as a rational/natural/normal/justified attitude, as it is today. The “War on Terror” will not ultimately be won by bombs, but by demonstrating that we don’t see this region as the locus of evil. Wars based on faulty justifications are not acceptable, and the politicians who went along with the plan should step down from office. They had their chance to lead the country forward in a dark period of our history, and they failed. It is time for a new generation of politicians such as Mr. Obama to be given a chance to wrest the country from the grips of paranoia, fear, hatred and misunderstanding. The “War on Terror” will be won by transcendance, not by military force. The wonderful part about the Obama campaign is that only a few years ago, it seemed like the chance for a politician with sane foreign policy stances to be elected by the American people was a pipe dream. Now, we are showing that we are capable. Now, everything has changed.
