Anyone wonder why WE have to approach THEM when THEY attacked US on 9/11?

Obama speech to Muslims key to new U.S. strategy By Ross Colvin
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – ...Obama will try to repair America's tarnished image in the Muslim world...will reach out to the world's more than 1 billion Muslims... U.S.-Muslim relations that were badly damaged by the Bush administration's global war on terror.****But, presumably, not by the terror itself. ****...how the United States can change for the better its relationship with the Muslim world," Obama said last week...
***Obama is speaking in Cairo, center of the Islamic teaching world ( tell that to the Saudis -- Keepers of the Two Shrines -- and the Shia world of Najaf and Qom.)and will be careful not to endorse Mubarek ( he is, after all, an ally, and Obama endorses only enemies while rejecting or insulting friends,, as with the Bits ) and yet not recognize human rights activists in Cairo. Nevertheless, he is willing to accord respect to the mullahs of Iran with a human rights record worse than almost anyone's. He is ready to recognize totalitarian regimes that are hostile to the U.S. without concern for dismaying human rights activists in those places. John Kerry goes around promising that the U.S. is "not for regime change." It seems to me that anyone who calls us "the Great Satan" and wishes our destruction should at least be open to the possibility that "we" might encourage the 50% of Iranians who are not ethnic Persians (and even some who are) to change the regime. After all, Jimmy Carter caused the regime to change from the Shah to that of the Ayatollah Khomeini and the rule of the mullahs.Take away subversion from the CIA, as well as assassination, and we are left only with what Nancy Pelosi described as lying to Congress:a pretty sour view of the front line of American defense.***
