What is Wrong With the Obama Administration, When it Comes to Foreign Policy? (Gratulrer Norge).

Watch these three videos, you will find out. I'm not defending the republican party in the US, but honestly, there is something really and fundamentally wrong with the Obama administration, particularly when it comes to an important issue such as foreign policy. There are many contradictions, failures, and unprofessional policies in this matter. In this respect, unprofessional reaction with regard to the current tension in Ukraine, handing over Iraq to the Islamic Regime, handing over Afghanistan to Karzai and Taliban (in the near future), reluctant reaction with regard to the Syrian civil war, having randevu and honeymoon with different factions within the Islamic Regime, hasty reaction with regard to the president Mubarak in Egypt and supporting the Muslim Brotherhood, and military intervention on Libya, etc could be mentioned.

By this brief information, i don't mean that for example, I'm supporting: a military strike on Iran, or the US invasion in Iraq in 2003 or the overall acts of the Mubarak regime in Egypt. Not at all. But, if i was a policy maker in the current US administration: i would not leave Iraq in the favor of the Islamic Regime; i would not remove president Mubarak in the favor of the God father of all Islamic fundamentalists in the Middle East i.e. the Muslim Brotherhood; instead, i would have pushed president Mubarak for some fundamental reforms in Egypt; or  i would not use the expertise of Islamic Regime's lobbies in the US (e.g. Hossein Mousavian= Iran's secret Ambassodor in the US) in order to make a shaky and unstable deal such as recent Geneva interim agreement with Iran; instead i would have used the expertise of some really neutral Iran analyst, etc.

1- George Tsunis, U.S. ambassador to Norway nominee.



2- Noah Mamet, U.S. ambassador to Argentina nominee.



3- Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont.), U.S. ambassador to China.


Unbelievable, I'm really speechless. Honestly, i'm wondering these gentlemen didn't have time to read a 50 pages article about these countries that they suppose to be ambassador on it? Or maybe, being an ambassador is the easiest job in the world, but i didn't know.
 However, in sum, i can say: Gratulerer Norge.
