A Philosophical Analysis of Obama's New Strategy for Afghanistan and Pakistan

Camillo "Mac" Bica, Truthout: "In offering the American people and the world his agenda for change - his new strategy for Afghanistan and Pakistan - President Obama reminds us that 'al-Qaeda and its allies - the terrorists who planned and supported the 9/11 attacks' - continue to be active in both nations. Using rhetoric reminiscent of the Bush administration, he warns us that al-Qaeda still seeks to kill 'as many of our people as possible' and is 'actively planning further attacks on the US homeland from its safe haven in Pakistan.' The reason, therefore, that 'our men and women still fight and die there' is to ensure our national security - the safety of the American people."

Beware Those Treacherous Afpakis

By Eric Margolis

President Barack Obama has now taken full ownership of the Afghanistan War. Gone are Washington's pretenses that a western "coalition" was waging this conflict. Gone, too, is the comic book term, "war on terrorism," replaced by the Orwellian sobriquet, "overseas contingency operations."
