Bellum Romana Continues

Mr. Obama has continued the War on Terror, even though he has not used the nomenclature.
One may witness the missile attacks into the tribal areas of Pakistan, North Wazirstan; moreover, his inaugural address ... as he recalls the nostalgia of the forefathers: Adams, Jefferson.. et al. Does Mr Obama remember the horrible atrocities that were committed in the name of the American Imperial Empire against the Aboriginals: Seminoles, Cubans...? These
actions were introduced to expand the American mainland. Yes, Guantanamo will be closing... but one year...? and what about the other CIA prisons: Bagram? Abu Gharib? Those located in Syria, Egypt, Eastern Europe...? No reference to these.. Is the Bush-light cycle repeating itself in another form...?? Is it clouded with beautiful euphonic melodies...?

Is the sovereignty of Pakistan relevant? Is Pakistan a failed state; thus, it makes his a belligerent actions morally correct? What happened to the respect to all the Muslim peoples... Therefore, is Obama using euphemisms  to cloud the perennial war on terror?

The Palestinian question also requires address. Did he categorically deplore the IDF mission in Gaza? Will he continue with 2-3 billion military aid to Israel? Will he enforce the openings of the crossings: Rafah? Erez? et al?
