Ignorance is Strength...
and War is Peace.
Barack Obama has not withdrawn from Iraq. He has overseen a massive increase in troop numbers in Afghanistan. Drone bombings on Pakistan have continued. Even the much-talked-about closure of Guantanamo isn't happening. During his tenure, rhetoric against Iran has reached semi-hysteria not seen since the 2002 media campaign about Iraq's Weapons of Mass Destruction.
This is not the indicator of a man of peace, certainly not of someone truly deserving of a "Peace Prize". This is the indicator of a hypocrite, whose followers rally against war only when their leader is out of power.
If you need proof that Obama supporters are sellouts, look no further than Cindy Sheehan - who was betrayed by leftists who had previously supported her antiwar movement. However, their tone changed following the election of a Democratic Congress in 2006, and even more so following Lord Obama's ascent to the throne in 2008.
Nothing Changed with regard to foreign policy. That's the problem.
Where is the Anti-War Movement in the Age of Obama?
