Obama’s Narrow Vision
Barack Obama visited the troops, who carried out the execution of Osama Bin Laden yesterday. Read about it here and note this extract.
Speaking before cheering troops at Fort Campbell in Kentucky, Mr Obama said: “These Americans deserve credit for one of the greatest military operations in our nation’s history.”
It is not and am reminded of President Kennedy’s words at the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
We will not prematurely or unnecessarily risk the costs of a worldwide nuclear war in which even the fruits of victory would be ashes in our mouth.
Obama has risked more worldwide terrorism by his sanctioning of the execution.
On this of all days, I fear for the future, if the many headed hydra of Al Qaeda finds a more dangerous leader than Bin Laden.

About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.

I completely agree. And I also think Obama is frantically trying to gain acceptance from the people who are horrified by his action – for example visiting tropps, visiting ground zero, and saying that OBL was planning a strike on US railways.

I have a feeling he’ll be in for a big fall soon over the US economy. America has ignored it’s terrible deficit for years and nothing done by politicians in recent years is going to help.
