Obama speech

Christopher Hitchens is the first I have read to give a precise low-down on the Leo Strauss influence. So it is I "understand" Obama's recent Cairo speech. I think I'll find it more difficult to defend the US than ever, now. After all even if Obamma only meant to indicate the desire for "peace"...well any of the psychopath dictators desired peace also. It's simply not workable to suggest that the US is orf the same ambitions as the "muslim world".
