President Obama needs to know that this world is a dangerous place ,and needs to know that even if you want to hug someone you should prepare for all kinds of reactions and not neccessarily that someone will hug you back! evidence? Obama hopes to show friendship but American enemy already wants America to shrink, shrink ,perhaps shrink back to England. Withdraw all troops around the world ,back to America my foot.

President Obama is doing fine ,or so it seems. Everyone can easily be a starter, a STICKER in ME peace is what more important and much harder to achieve. It is OK to give Obama credit as a starter, now we can wish him best of luck when all the obstacles the hatred, revenges, religions..start to show up.

Happy New Year China, this is the year of the ox or buffalo and chinese people will be working extra hard to go through world wide recession period. "hong bao " is chinese nice culture but also a training for corruption since young. I wish China quits the moon calendar and joins the Western world in the same new year, after all our lives depend on the sun , not the moon.

Next will they ban anything made by people of other religions? Or ban muslims to look at or to shake hands with non muslims ? The more they ban this ban that ,the more people will understand the situation of Israel among Islamic nations.

Obama speeches are all about political speeches and so their values depend very much on not only words but also the timing , the circumstances and who deliver them. To me the way Obama deliver his speeches ( like an actor's performance) is the most important thing because this is the main factor which will make the ideas go through and stick to peopke minds, people hearts.

"245 detainees would be released".. Bush spend billions to capture and hold these people, now Obama just realse them ? to where? What a gamble!
" No gift from lobbyists?" how long will this last? watch out for gifts from lobbyists to President's relatives who do not serve in the administration.
Sworn in again? not the same though.

I think the speech was quite OK, he 'changes' America back to the 'old days" ,the time when America was once "great", it is fine by me. And also he showed a very good consideration when the chief justice made a mistake( this chief justice ,I heard ,that he never voted for Obama and also Obama never voted for him).

"..everyone to be of service'...yes, it means no more unemployed person, right? Wonderful idea, I wait the day the US declares that unemployment is now 0.00%.

Politicians of everywhere these days ALWAYS put their interests, their parties's interests first without fail, can Obama be any different? I doubt it, but he is always good talking , smooth talking as ever...wait and see, just wait and see.

Basically he does not have enough WISDOM to fight the most difficult war ( religious war, or politically correct :war on terror). Let's hope that the next US president will be able to show us the right way.

10- day truce, what does that mean? I thought both Hamas and Israel,this time all want to fight to their satisfaction. I don't know what Hamas wants to achieve by launching rockets against a much much stronger opponent when they started this mess. Israel wants to teach Hamas a very hard lesson once and for all: in the future every time you attack us first, we will retaliate with extremely brutal force, cop that! Hope the lesson will work and hope that after 10-day truce, permanent peace will come. Hamas does not need to love Israel just stop attacking, because Israel is so powerful. And that is the only reason. All other arguments are useless.

Peace and war in ME :on again, off again; peace today war tommorrow,then peace and war again and again, never ending cycle and this time is no exception. Both Hamas and Israel want to sort thing out once and for all, but after waiting quite a few days UNSC decided to intervene... peace again,war again and so on it continues.

He could simply say : Work is not God's punishment and that how Japanese people believe. In fact Japanese strength comes from "team work" and not necessarily "hard work".

Why Hamas couldn't wait until the new US president, at least they could expect something different to Bush ? They asks for it and now even the UNSC just keeps silent ,does nothing. The dam is broken and now the water will just to have to run all the way to the sea.
