I just listened to President Obama’s announcement about his new, changed, unchanged negotiating, and non-negotiating strategy with hostage takers. As usual, you could pick out sentences to support any position that you think he has taken.
President Obama claims that the United States does not negotiate with terrorists. However, we know that he has negotiated with:
· The Taliban
· The Palestinian Authority
· Hamas
· Hezbollah
· The Muslim Brotherhood
· Iran
President Obama negotiated with the Taliban to trade 5 high high-ranking terrorist held in Gitmo for a deserter. He then held a Rose Garden ceremony with the deserter’s parents. The father praised Allah in Arabic.
