In other words, no real apology and absolutely no intention to change its terror tactics. It's like a bank robber who blames his killing of bystanders on defective ammo that he bought from Chinese suppliers at WalMart!

POTUS 44 talks about respecting Muslims and about his desire to close Guantanamo, but then he escalates the USA occupation troops and drone attacks; meanwhile, he revives the "reformed" Military Commission trials and defends most of the core Bush policies on detaining "illegal combatants." Wall Street could not have picked a better mouthpiece than the ambitious Afro-American politician with the gift of gab. But ultimately, a successful used war salesman cannot save the Empire from its inevitable Imperial defeat and demise in central Asia's infamous "Graveyard of Empires."

The USA empire is too indebted to the pro-Israel lobby that both Democrats as well as the GOP will defend Israel's right for first strikes with $ Billions more of made-in-USA WMDs supplied to the Zionists military.

On the other hand, Obama and his band of "Surge-on Generals" have the rare foresight and Bush-like Iron Will of committing $100 Billion a year(times whatever number of years it takes "to succeed")to the Cheney-concocted "Operation Enduring Fiefdom"!
