[Ynet] Weakness of US president's actions as measured against power of his words has sown cynicism in international arena and weakened Western World.
The Champ is beyond doubt a gifted orator. Speeches propelled him to the political limelight, speeches were decisive in landing him US presidential election victories and similarly, the venting of lofty thoughts secured him a Nobel Prize generally reserved for figures who have devoted decades of their lives to serving a civil or humanitarian cause.
Champ’s problem is his belief that international disputes can be solved with rhetoric – that foreign policy can be staged like a political primary where the right speech rallies young and old, poor and rich, rabbis and imams behind a common struggle for peace and freedom.
Shallow, sophomoric "rhetoric" and Marxist, utopian themes are all he has. There is nothing else. There never has been. |
