Legacy of Terror


It's been over a year since Obama has been in office. Accomplishments:

Continued occupation of Iraq?

Check.

Expansion of war in Afghanistan?

Check.

Ramping up drone attacks since the Bush Era?

Check.

Continued policy of rendition?

Check.

Failing to close Guantanamo?

Check.

Quoting the late, great Howard Zinn: “I think people are dazzled by Obama’s rhetoric, and that people ought to begin to understand that Obama is going to be a mediocre president — which means, in our time, a dangerous president — unless there is some national movement to push him in a better direction.”
