Internet is a wondrous tool and I use it, (ain't I a fool?)for you dear pupils, who wish to speak the Queen's English. Well, maybe not but at least, if asked whether you speak English or not, don't say: "I do not!"

OBAMA PRO-LANDMINES
As a former active member of Handicap International, I feel deeply miserable.

So the Obama administration is not going to sign the Ottawa treaty banning landmines.
The one that G.W.Bush said he would never sign...
Well, Obama didn't abolish the patriot act either. Quite the contrary, he voted to reauthorize it.

and the video of a sadly unforgettable moment here:

Indeed, Obama is not the president anti-war-minded people could legitimately be hoping for.
Should we keep hoping the world becomes a better place or should we give up hope?
Let's keep hoping!
Yes, always. I mean at least as long as we live... PEACE
