President Obama released his blueprint last week for pursuing a new world order that offers no compelling vision to guide the ship of state. Rather it dangerously shifts our militarys focus from counterterrorism to nation building and subordinates aspects of our foreign policy to international organizations like the United Nations.
The 2010 National Security Strategy outlines Obamas strategic approach and priorities for advancing American interests. Obamas report, which is supposed to be submitted to Congress 150 days after the beginning of the administration, provides a bleak assessment of our current state, abandons key parts of President Bushs security strategy and identifies Obamas vision for a new world order with no new approaches.
Obamas assessment of the current strategic environment is bleak. We live in a time of sweeping change where events far beyond our shores impact the safety, security, and prosperity of Americans, Obama writes.
His strategy calls for strengthening our militarys capacity to partner with foreign counterparts, train and assist security forces, pursue military-to-military ties with more governments. This means he will refocus military priorities away from more traditional war-fighting to nation building. Preparing other nations to defend themselves has merit but that mission shouldnt sap scarce resources from more important missions.
Obamas nation building plan is a whole of government effort. He intends to assemble a civilian expeditionary capacity to join the military in nation building as we have seen in Afghanistan and Iraq. Perhaps instead of sending that force to places like Sudan they ought to go to Louisiana to help clean-up the oil or to Arizona to guard our border.
He also states the risk of nuclear attack has increased

Phazse 3 of 1961 State Dept document: Freedom From War:
The United States Program for General and Complete Disarmament in a Peaceful World
The goal back then was to make the UN global army bigger than any country’s ability to overpower it, give the nukes over to them, and countries would have their own smaller internal security forces to keep order within their countries. Like our SWAT teams and F-Troop. And now Obama’s civillian army forces.
Liberals hate wars. Ask clinton
This is a truly dangerous man.
This megalomanic fantasy will never become to pass.
He wants to turn this
into this
“away from more traditional war-fighting to nation building.”
Isn’t nation building what they condemned Bush for?
Selective memory
A random word generator could have produce this gibberish.
Maybe it did.
