Current Obama government has started off a plan according to which wild life experts will have to go for investigations of risks and dangers based upon the implementation of any project.

•    Like wildlife didn’t reviewed the plan of increasing logging old grown and matured forest in Oregon before approving it – this plan had the negative impact that approximately 680 Spotted Owl sites may be eliminated as said by American Bird Conservancy. Len Blumin (flicker) admires the Obama administration policies and organization due to implementation of rules that are implemented.

•    During the last Government of George W. Bush the plan was rejected in just the eleventh hour of term left as the plan has to be discussed with US Fish and wildlife Service or the

National Oceanic and Atmospheric administration before its implementation which required construction of roads, mines and dams.

•    Endangered Species Act is devoting their services of keeping species and habitats secure from threats since decades as said by the Commerce Secretary Gary Locke. According to 1973 law, the ESA is responsible of protecting endangered species from elimination and also to maintain the habitats and ecosystem necessary for their survival.

Decision of restoring Endangered Species Act

Ken Salazar the interior secretary and Gary Locke the commerce secretary announced on April 28, 2009 that they will reverse the regulation of Endangered Species Act imposed in the last months of previous Government. According to this rule now ESA doesn’t require to consult the FWS and NMFS experts whose plans may risk the species. If fact the agencies are now allowed to either consult or not. This act has been really admired by the Vice President for Conservation Advocacy Darin Schroeder.

Consultation process is very important and one of the cornerstones of ESA that ensures the protection of animals, birds and plants. An example of ESA consultation importance is the Western Oregon plan which was approved without the revision even there were lots of risks associated with it. Like habitat protection may get to risk due to decreasing Salmon Stocks and 680 Spotted Owl sites may be eliminated. So this plan must be withdrawn so that proper consultation may take place.

During the 160th anniversary of department of interior, President Obama proposed that the new technology must be implemented at ESA so that to make it stronger and then after the speech he released the memorandum regarding the consultation restoration.

After the Washington’s decision of continuing the economic sanctions for one more year, the relationships between Syria and US have been ruined again. The Syrian president came to know about the ‘outstretched hand’ just weeks before by Barack Obama, when he visited the office.

Not even Damascus has marked any of the Washington’s wish list. Assad also failed to end up relations with Hamas and Hezbollah and keep away from Iran. In addition to this he also exhibited these unions along with Hassan Nasrullah and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

The opposite response on these issues reached the Middle East’s heart – Iran supported Syria and realizes the valid resistance against Israel by Islamic Palestinian and Lebanese unions.
US and Israel both unions have proved themselves to be the terrorist organization due to their indifferent attitude. The issue of supplying advance Scud missiles to Hezbollah by Syria is big example of their terrorism as Israel charged allegations for this. Beirut and Damascus have also reacted on this issue by accusing Israel of belligerence.

Soon the Arabs will experience the missile issue by way of Obama’s sanctions as a preface. But the focus of US president is not only at one area. Syrian support is decreasing for foreign fighters in Iraq. – This has made Al-Qaida still strong enough to attack on Shia community.
Syria changed its policy when it realizes the joining of new jihadi community, post-Saddam regime “blowback” to stay in Baghdad.

A Syrian analyst Samir al-taqi knows much about the regime due to his close contacts. He calls the Damascus and Washington’s relationship as “co-ordinated non-touch dancing”, though there are only small but very important changes.

In the start of this year, the change was being expected as US permitted Boeing for repairing the 2 Syrian Arab Airlines 747 jets is place of selling aircrafts parts.

Another good sign was that Obama selected the Damascus new ambassador in place of US envoy who was withdrawn in the previous issue. However, Robert Ford who is to be appointed is still on the list until the senate confirmed it.

Damascus officials claim that they have noticed off practices of isolating Assad regime. This points directly on clear European benefits for improved relationships and investments also.
According to US President Obama Syria’s unusual and extensive threats to national security, economy of US and foreign policy will still continue on thin relations between Israel and Syria but there are signs of chill relationships between Damascus and Washington.

Obama Government is taking strict actions against the terrorism activities. Like after the nuclear posture review Obama ordered to kill Anwar al-Awlaki without any investigations who was citizen of US and suspected to be involved in terrorism activities. Ellen Nakashima writer of Washington Post writes that US can also target citizens of America if involved in activities of terrorism acknowledged by the Intelligence chief. Same is acknowledged by the Director of National Dennis C. Blair on 3 of February at testimony.

Obama’s Nuclear Policy: New or Bush Administration continued Policy?

President Obama Administration has changed the policies regarding nuclear weapons usage. Like during the Bush Government on December 2001 Nuclear Posture Review was issued according to which it was declared individually, the strike of nuclear weapons for the preventive right. But Obama Administration has limited the use of nuclear weapons.

Obama said that he is refurbishing the nuclear strategy of America so that to limit the conditions of nuclear weapons usage but keeping an exception out for North Korea and Iran.

It has been noticed the change in the strategy of America that for the first time US is declaring not to target nonnuclear countries through nuclear weapons even if they use any other weapons against US.

On April 7 it was headline in Times editorial about Mr. Obama Nuclear Policy that it is important to realize the actual role of nuclear arms and to discourage nuclear attack on either of the states or America, they will lead it by example.

But all this seems wrong. Nuclear or Nonnuclear countries may be attacked. Old weapons will be replaced by new and more dangerous weapons and thus the dangerous testing will remain continued. Also the discouragement of nuclear weapons usage will soon end.

Now the advancements in weapons used for land or sea wars will make them dominant over all the areas land, sea or air and then the usage of all kinds of weapons arsenal, nuclear, biological or chemical will also continue. Thus all these policies are still the same as were in Bush administration.

All these statements and policies are just made to make rest of the countries fool but they are justifying themselves bogusly. It seems clear that America is just pretending by discussing freedom, democracy, peace and justice. They still have the same aim of making power, wealth and most dominant state of the world.

The question that has been talk of the town of late is the winning of Nobel Peace prize by the US President. According to most people Barack Hussein Obama was the surprising winner of the prestigious Nobel Prize. But is it so the case? The Nobel Committee states that the reason behind Barack Obama winning the Nobel prize was because of strong attitude and determination with a view to encourage the international diplomacy and mutual co-operation among all the nations of the world.

But, along side this small list there is huge list of reasons for which he is not even worthy of getting this prestigious prize.

As a matter of fact, Mr. Barack Obama has caused unimaginable horror and awe for through his so-called peaceful ways all over the world in less than just 9 months in the office by his following deeds:

He prosecuted a war in the Afghanistan where thousands of innocent civilians got murdered by the cruel American military personnel backed up by the very same US president who received the Nobel Prize.

He then prosecuted a war in the state of Pakistan where millions of people in the Swat Valley got displaced and got converted into the war refugees.

Then he also prosecuted a war in the Iraq which he previously inherited from the infamous US President George Bush. This has now turned out to be solely his war. He has been continuing the staffing of the very new embassy, and the fulfillment of minimum 7 new military bases in the state of Iraq. Regular death of the military staffs is now a common phenomenon. The overall death toll in the state of Iraq from war is more than of a million people now.

Then again, threatening the Iran with the military air strikes does one more example of Obama not being peace love.

So, it’s now up to your conscience to decide whether the Nobel Prize Committee has done the right thing by giving away the Nobel Prize to Barack Obama!

The people of United States of America elected Barack Hussein Obama as their new President with an enormous hope and optimism.  The Common Americans opine him as the charismatic figure. They are looking a savior inside of this great personality. Now they wish to see the charisma of this charismatic figure in bailing them out from the current economic recession.

Like a tornado, economic crisis hit the United States of America. The confidence of the consumers is in fact in a total hopeless situation. The retail sales have exhibited a minus growth in the 3rd half of the year. In the recent years, the US housing is passing the worst time. Banks and the other financial organizations are collapsing like a pack of cards. Even the $ 700 B bailout plan formulated by the Bush administration could not be of any help to enhance the overall situation. Each and everything appears to have been abolished and washed away.

The current American economic crisis got affected by the world wide economical condition in a too bad manner. Economy all around the globe is currently in a downtrend.  Now, the great visionary Barack Hussein Obama has created a different stature for himself making the rest of the world relying on him for any sort of positive change.

As a matter of fact, US President Barack Hussein Obama is indeed riding in the driving seat of the world economy. His firm decisions will not only have an effect on the US economy but also the global economy.

In this regard, Barack Hussein Obama has proclaimed future tax cuts for the businesses and the general Americans. He is in deed talking of overall tax cut. Obama has also chalked out the special advantages to the middle class American people.

The special attention of Barack Hussein Obama in overcoming the currently going on economic crisis is in deed a great sign of comfort not only for the Americans but also for the global people.

Only a handful of current World Leaders in deed hailed from an International background- instead majority of current leaders have seldom a privileged, a legal or may be a National background. Barack Hussein Obama has been successful in breaking this very mold, and it is one of the main reasons why so many people all around the globe, are so supportive towards his Presidency.

Here you get to know six of the most surprising facts about the current US President Barack Hussein Obama

1) Barack Hussein Obama is the United States of America’s 1^st multi-ethnic President, hailing an African family with a Kenyan Father, and then alongside an American Mother. Brought up by his beloved mother and her mother’s family- who were his actual influences during Obama’s childhood period?

2) He is perhaps one of the first US Presidents who have spent major part of early childhood in another Country called the Indonesia. He lived his early life totally in an international environment.

3) He did his graduation from the world renowned Harvard University, via a scholarship program.

4) He is totally a self-made man. Barack Hussein Obama’s rising to the pinnacle of success, was solely by his very own effort and through following his never ending ambitions in turning into a great politician.

5) He belongs to one of the few US Presidents who in fact earned his fortune by means of writing.  He is in fact a best selling author, than a businessman or a lawyer.

6) He is one of those rare US presidents who believe in prospering the world by mutual co-operation with other countries and in that effort he even received the Nobel Peace Prize in the year of 2009.

Barack Hussein Obama has indeed been a revolutionary politician in US history bringing in changes in the notion of world politics.

An example is set by the United States of America by means of its selection of a dynamic and totally new black face to represent the modern discrimination free United States of America. Barack Obama took birth in an African Muslim family whose father was an African Muslim, Primarily Barack Hussein Obama went to a school in the East Asian country Indonesia until the period when he was brought into Hawaii by his grandfather who consequently brought him up with great sincerity and sheer dedication, little knowing the fact that this very little child would one day turn out to be the 44th president of the USA. In fact, the United States of America has come across long way to understand the true vision of the great Martin Luther King who once dreamt of such America where each and every negro or so called black skin must be judged on the basis of their talent and activity and not just by the color of their skin, race or even their ethnicity.

Indeed, the United States of America headed by the current visionary President Barack Obama is a true epitome of the word equality, sheer perseverance and true deliverance. With the distinct dreams and the perfect vision for the near future, the great patriot Barack Hussein Obama truly aspires to take the cause of education ahead in the United States of America so that there remains no child uneducated and thence unemployed. Success in academics alongside practical life is what Obama’s vision is all about. As a matter of fact, this very vision might not be the easiest of tasks to perform and succeed even with the kind of sincerity, sheer dedication and a never say die attitude success is the most likely option.

The steps taken by Barack Hussein Obama in uplifting the fragile world economy is unparallel in the history. His latest promises on donations to the third world climate change affected country is just another example of his visionary mind. It’s only leaders like him who can uplift the current crisis that the world is facing right now and we the global citizens are mostly benefitted by the arrival of this true world leader.

Is there anyone who is totally certain about the principal cause of the global warming? Well that’s a critical thing to know. But, one thing is certain and that is global warming is an issue to feel concerned for.

In answer to the above asked question a lot of people might opine that it’s the air pollution, and the 44^th president of the United States of America seems to ponder so. Now the question is that whether or not a new government can save the future generations from the upcoming global hazards? A wide market for the cleaner-burning fuels can aid in stopping the on-going climate change and also the President Barack Obama’s administration can make all of that happen. That is what being hoped by a good number of the concerned environmental groups.

Such one special interest group is called the Ceros. This particular coalition of the environmental organizations and the investors wishes for the US President Barack Hussein Obama to cut down hazardous global warming. They have figured out that he could pass the mush required legislation to cut down the green house gas emissions by as much as 25% below the 1990 levels before the year 2020, and as a matter of fact their approximations  are nearly accurate if not totally accurate.

One of the steps in achieving such end is the “honest accounting of the financial ups and downs that the companies and the relevant investors might face as a result of the climate change.”

Who wouldn’t wish the government of the US President Barack Obama government to take in the charges for reducing the amount of greenhouse gas emissions and also the rates of deforestation?

According to US President Barack Obama, “This very issue of the climate change is that one important thing which we tend to ignore at our own danger. Disputes might still be prevalent about the exact intensity of it, but what we can be scientifically sure of it is that our continuous utilization of the fossil fuels is pushing us to the brink of the pint where we can’t return from”.

This informs us that Barack Obama in deed has some visions for the scientific researches in this concern, and also that he heartily believes that we can actually do something in regard to the global warming.

So, our future is in our own hands and its time for the leader of the world BARACK Obama to step out and take some revolutionary decisions and thence save the world from the unwanted catastrophe heading towards us.

Close to a year after President Obama made history, his popularity around the world is what has set him apart from previous Presidents.

One particular political humour website from the land down under (Australia) has even set up a dedicated page on their website titled the “Obama Fan Club” where Gaelene Woo regularly posts her fictious letters to President Obama.

President Bush is also the subject of his own page on the website, titled “Bush and Barney”, it presents an everyday account of President Bush’s dog during their time in office.

Political humour can often be a hit or miss subject but the Friday Mash website does a great job at poking fun at both local Australian politicians and international politicians. The website hosts a collection of political cartoons and other funny satire cartoons that depict celebrities that are making headlines right now.

April 29 doesn’t represent a date that one could usually forget about being on the calendar. This very special year it fall on Wednesday, almost but not quite denoting an end mark to the month. It’s quite obvious that, April 29 would pass by without making much of a buzz around us every other year.
But this year, probably for the very first time, April 29 was embraced with great enthusiasm. This particular year, April 29had its own meaning, for the time being rivaling with more inauspicious and traditional dates like the July 4th or October 31st.Now, the question arises why was the day so special this particular year? And, the reason behind this was that April 29 marked the completion of 100th day of President Barack Obama’s presidency. On the eve of Obama’s completion of hundred days, CNN had telecasted hours of special long duration coverages focusing solely on Obama Administration’s first hundred day activities. Without a doubt, almost every columnist working at almost every newspaper in the nation used the occasion to put their thoughts on the true meaning of it all. On 29th April,2009 like the school going kids Obama’s report card was issued; Obama’s administrations overall performance was scrutinized and weighed against the expectations that we had of him in pre- election stage.
So what makes us put so much of significance to the completion of president Obama’s First Hundred Days? To be honest it’s pre dominantly Franklin Roosevelt’s fault. He being one of the most strong and independent presidents in the US history, Roosevelt utilized the first hundred days of his presidency to put forward a mammoth package of legislation via Congress – fifteen individual bills that combinedly established the basis of the New Deal, created revolutionary changes in to the modern American society. On passing these fifteen bills, Congress was adjourned dated June 16, 1933 – exactly hundred days after it commenced. Right from that point of time, the starting of every new president’s term has been adjudged against the FDR’s standard. And just about almost every president has failed to put up a great show.
President Barack Obama’s very first hundred days was lead by changes in almost every sphere of life of the Americans. Majority of the changes were reversals of Obama’s self campaign stands. It was also filled with reversals of a huge number of policies adopted by the Bush Administration .The first hundred day analysis makes it crystal clear that For the better or for the worse; the federal government led by President Barack Hussein Obama will certainly be different from that of George W. Bush.
