  • Obama takes a day off from diplomatic warnings, praises Algeria

    President Obama has been issuing a number of international warnings in recent days -- to Egypt, to Hosni Mubarak, to Bahrain, to Libya. (Scroll down for a longer list of his warnings.)
    Today, instead of warning another country, he praised Algeria for lifting its state of emergency decree that's been in effect since Obama was in law school somewhere.
    The Illinois Democrat has been chided recently for becoming something of a tardy diplomatic scold, warning many countries and foreign leaders but leaving Iran-bashing to underlings. So, Obama took the occasion Thursday to make a considerably longer statement celebrating the Motown Sound and Black History Month at another star-studded White House music party.

    Statement by the president on Algeria lifting its state of emergency, as provided by the White House
    I commend the government of Algeria for taking an important step forward today by formally lifting the state of emergency that has been in place in Algeria for 19 years.*
    This is a positive sign that the government of Algeria is listening to the....
    ...concerns and responding to the aspirations of its people, and we look forward to additional steps by the government that enable the Algerian people to fully exercise their universal rights, including freedom of expression, association and assembly.*
    The United States is committed to continuing our cooperation with the Government of Algeria as it works to represent and meet the needs of all Algerians. We will also continue speaking up for universal freedoms, justice and the dignity of every human being.*** ####

    Try sweeping under your carpet sir Obama, when it comes to human rights take a look at your southern racist states that oppresse your own folks down there.
    Ask not what your country can do for you, but ask what you can do for your country.

    J.F.Kennedy, inspired by Gibran K. Gibran.

      Historically the U.S. have always avoided antagonising Algeria. Were it not for the Palestinian problem, the US and DZ would be extremely close allies.
