Bush and the former Soviet Union in Afghanistan lesson.
present, the Taliban, mainly in southern Afghanistan, near Pakistan’s border areas and regional activities, they often recruit girls to harass the school, and fight with police in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Obama took office, how to deal with Afghanistan, the White House will become the new face of the largest and most difficult of the “international challenges.”

although since the elected president, Obama has been in a number of international hotspot issues remain silent, but his men are well on the current U.S. foreign policy to do “major surgery” in preparation. Obama believes that America’s Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan policy should form an organic whole, the current kind of “conflicts” situation must be effectively improved.
this weekend, Obama presidential decree to close the Guantanamo naval base in Cuba, the “captured terrorists concentration camps”, and released to the outside world which is currently being held more than 250 Taliban and “base” the exact whereabouts of the organization captured in the future. The fast start of the work shows that Obama’s National Security Council has already quietly doing a succession of preparatory work.

But the American voters, how to make the economic recession is the most important international problem is not the focus of their concern.
loss of soldiers off the Americans against the war in Iraq because, if in the future the U.S. military in Afghanistan suffered heavy casualties, then Obama will not shoulder the pressure to step down Bush than just easy. Americans’ anti-war attention “from Iraq to Afghanistan soon. In 2008, a total of 151 U.S. troops killed in Afghanistan, created seven years of the war began, “record.”
addition to diplomatic issues, Obama acknowledged that the U.S. is facing an internal crisis, such as rising unemployment, the real estate market crisis, weak business and increasingly expensive health care system, “not something that can be resolved.” Once the future’s remarks failed to deliver on his campaign promise to leave the room for maneuver. However, Obama also suggested that the U.S. economic recovery under the required “strong medicine.”
It is reported that the new U.S. government will create more jobs at the same time, lay the foundation for future development, it will vigorously carry out infrastructure construction, road building bridges, power plants and digital, to promote economic development , and thus the Americans closer together. However, Obama’s Treasury Secretary-designate is still for “tax evasion” has not been reviewed by the Senate. (H Yi Jun)
