And People in the USA think lethal injection is cruel.
While the USA elected a young and untested president. The world is gearing up to test the nerves of Obama. Russia, Iran, and Israel. Each one of those nations has a problem that could-at one point- cause an international crisis. Iran, after a 29 year diplomatic boycott has sent its congratulations to Obama. Ahmadinejad called for Obama to change current US policies concerning Iran. Ahmadinejad wants the sanctions removed as a sign of goodwill.
Israel, however, is against this. Israel stated that if Obama eases up on the sanctions or opens lines of communication. That Iran would consider Obama as weak. Iran wanted a president Obama, because they think Obama is ‘flexible‘. Lastly Russia is now willing to put warheads along the Polish boarder if Obama continues Bush’s missile shield.
This is a whole heck of a lot for Barack Obama. Just recently Obama was just a senator, and before that a state senator. I know the entire media bashed Palin for her lack of foreign policy experience, but Obama doesn’t have any either. I hope that Obama show some backbone and keep up the pressure on Iran, and show Russia that he does have a backbone. I just fear that Obama will try to follow the failed Neville Chamberlain diplomacy of appeasement.
