Before the popcorn gets cold, I want to scribble something down to commemorate the inauguration. So the man has become the 44th US president. Where everything could go wrong he got it all right. I mean boy, Obama really nailed his campaign. For most people they just want to be inspired, including yours truly - and I'am not even an American! Haha I would have voted for him too.
But is he really the man that the world especially Middle-East have waited for?
The sceptics claim that the new west wing administration would not do a darn thing over the Gaza conflict. Much of the doubt is based on that Obama has indebted too much on the Jewish big-guns' support in beating McCain.
The chap that need to be monitored is no other than Obama's right hand man Rahm Emanuel the new white house Chief of Staff (the so called 2nd man most powerful in the white house). A son of a member of a Zionist group Irgun in Chicago, even rumor has it that Rahm used to serve in the Israelis army. Although he claimed only to volunteer in the bomb squadron (it doesn't make it any more benign dude). Not to mention Obama's head political strategist David Axelrod who is also a... yes mam!
Don't get me wrong, I'm not a racist or into generalisation. Jew is just a race, and we should not blame a person based on his color, race or creed. And apart from the Israelis army, I don't think all Jews are the baddies here. I'm certain that any ordinary Jew in Jerusalem say Jeremiah the cable-guy is a hardworking honest chap who has a family to feed and a dog to walk every after supper. So part of me still hoping that Rahm and David are one of the good fellah.
What Obama need to show to the world is he really determines to address the Gaza bloody crisis more than his predecessor Bush & Jokers. I suppose he's on the right track when he chose an Arab TV network for his first television interview in getting his message across to the Arab world that US shouldn't be viewed as the enemy.
But yeah that is just on foreign policy, on the home front he has to deal with the economic crisis, unemployment, health reform and what not. But that's another story over a next cup of milo. Well Mr President, you can talk the talk but only time would tell whether you can really walk the walk.
PS: For the record, Barrack if u ever want to reappoint your secretary of health for your second term, then I'm your guy.
PPS: One thing for sure, he and Michellle is one sweet couple.
