		<description><![CDATA[Barack Obama – as any other U.S. president – does of course present the Senate with a state of the union each year. Even if it was something he did not like to do, he would still have to, for the simple fact that America’s constitution requires the president to fill in the Senate (or [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wikileaks presented us with a great number of things we shouldn’t know about the Afghan war, and not for the first time. Of course, what we shouldn’t know is strictly tied to your perspective. Wikileaks thinks we should know, as I’m sure many journalists do too. Sometimes there are legitimate reasons why issues should be [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to EuropeanPlanet I came across an article by ‘the Middle  East’ online. In it Robert Gates is quoted to have said that the ‘European Union is an important reason why Turkey’s foreign policy and its stance towards the Western world have changed.
That is not something we should applaud. Turkey – being a secular [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Finally, China seems to have taken ‘safety first’ to heart by agreeing to walk the road towards imposing sanctions on Iran. For a long time both Peking and Moscow have been stubbornly resisting the much more unanimous western nation’s wishes to stop, or at least slow down, Iran’s nuclear ambitions. 
Already burdened by unequal -and [...]]]></description>

Yes, the House of Representatives is a legislative house that serves the American people, yet it does not mean, as one politician wants us to believe, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some comments given on the American health care proposal in Dutch newspapers miss the crucial point, so I thought it was time to get back at the issue quickly. People here know Obama is having a hard time. Maybe even more than in America itself, the Republicans are regarded as a bunch of troublemakers not [...]]]></description>

It seems Obama was serious when he stressed his rejection of the choice between ideals and safety, as plans have been [...]]]></description>

By law America is obliged to deliver enough military supplies in order for Taiwan to be able to defend itself in an unstable region. Even so, the latest deal, worth about 6,4 billion dollars, was bound to create new [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not much news in the things Obama’s spoke about in his ‘State of the Union’ speech.  It was good to hear; he has not lost his demagoguism which made him the president of hope. This president of hope has got some pretty harsh punches though, which he carefully but honestly admitted. Not that he had [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We’ve all heard the apocalypse that approaches Obama’s democratic administration. Massachusetts has elected a new senator: Scott Brown. Suddenly all you hear is the word ‘filibuster’.
Exaggeration is not good in politics or journalism. It creates irrationality. Just how quickly this is relevant here, I cannot tell. I am inclined to say it is a serious [...]]]></description>
