Report: Obama Considering Apologizing To Pakistan…

Gross.

(National Journal) — The Obama administration is actively considering issuing an apology or at least an expression of contrition to Pakistan over the errant NATO strikes that killed at least 24 Pakistani soldiers last fall, even though nearly two months have passed since the completion of an official Pentagon investigation that partially blamed mistakes made by U.S. forces for the incident, U.S. officials said.

The State Department has resurrected the idea after repudiating the U.S. ambassador to Pakistan, Cameron Munter, early on when he pressed for an immediate apology following the incident last November. A Pentagon official, asked about the possibility of a statement of apology or contrition last month, at first said he was unaware there was any discussion going on, then a few days later acknowledged that it was. Now the White House is mulling the language and timing of such a statement, a U.S. official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

U.S. officials are waiting, in part, on a Pakistani parliamentary committee report on the future of U.S.-Pakistan relations. And they are hoping for some conciliatory language from Islamabad because, as one U.S. official said, it would make issuing a U.S. statement easier “if the Pakistanis accepted some responsibility” for the NATO incident, which involved miscommunications and poor coordination on both sides, according to the U.S. military inquiry report.

    Everyone thought Obama would move towards the center for the election.

    Instead, he is pulling out all the stops to go as Liberal / Commie / Socialist / Muzz he can.

    It’s as though he knows he is going to lose, and wants to do as much damage as he can before he is thrown out.

    Obama should be apologizing to the American people for screwing up the USA.

    And remember at the beginning of George Bush’s second term, when so many people took pictures of themselves apologizing to the world that he was elected to a second term? Maybe they should get those signs back out and scratch out GWB and put BHO.

    Only after they apologize for harbouring Bin Laden.
    Then carpet bomb the two faced bastards back into the stone age.
    They are the enemy as much as the Taiban

    Nothing says “I am sorry” to people who dislike you like a few billion borrowed greenbacks!. He could have tucked it in a Valentines day card. No wait, a v-day card, that would be offensive to that religion we would never offend a religious group like that.

    Projection of smart power, indeed.

    Damn, is it time to vote YET?

    The report I read said that the Pakistani liaison officer with the Americans OKed the strike when the Pakis mistakenly tried to kill our people. Since it is clearly the fault of both armies I’m sure Obama will take full responsibility.

    Funny how he never takes responsibility or apologizes to the American People for any of his domestic tyranny.

    Matt 7:15 .. Beware of false professors, who come to you dressed as sheep (believing in the Messiah), but inside they are devouring wolves (defiled & defiling alal Hb#5953, Ar#5954). Eze 22:27 .. You will fully recognize them by their fruits. Do people pick grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles .. ?

    Even so every healthy sound tree bears good fruit worthy of admiration, but the sickly, decaying worthless tree bears bad worthless fruit. A good healthy tree cannot bear bad worthless fruit, nor can a bad diseased tree bear excellent fruit worthy of admiration ..

    The President is not the Enemy and does not fall under the guidelines you are trying to use.
    Calling A President an Enemy proves not only are you a mentally-damaged racist, but an Un-American bigot puke!

    along with the 99 percent nonsense a few people been calling obama dictator on here, hes not a dictator, people talking in recent months about these very issues and going off the wall with conspiracy theories etc. and saying their is no war on terror etc, their is no real threat.
    You are sick in the head!

    I hope you don’t call yourself a Christian, you hateful racist scum!
    On what earthly basis do you make such a claim? Name one “evil” thing he’s done. Just one. That’s easy, because they are hate-filled racists! The scumbags here Believes anyone that does not look like him is Evil. Spoken like a racist and a refugee from the fact challenged Fox News.

    You are a disgusting disgrace to Mankind. Racist asshole!
