Barack O'Bama

This is an excerpt from NBC news:

"Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama said Thursday the United States
cannot use its military to solve humanitarian problems and that preventing a
potential genocide in Iraq isn’t a good enough reason to keep U.S. forces
there.

on the deployment of U.S. forces, then by that argument you would have 300,000
troops in the Congo right now — where millions have been slaughtered as a
consequence of ethnic strife — which we haven’t done,” Obama said in an
interview with The Associated Press.
“We would be deploying unilaterally and
occupying the Sudan, which we haven’t done. Those of us who care about Darfur
don’t think it would be a good idea,” he said.
