The Spin and Reality of the NATO Summit

The Sunday Times: Reports that NATO has not meet the Agenda of US President Obama, it will send a short and limited military effort to Afghanistan. It has taken time, but the spin of the NATO summit has began to fade, the BBC at the start as is their custom treated it as was what the secular second coming that is Obama wanted, it was only later that they realised that it was rubbish. Obama will be lucky to get the promises of today, the UK will send the troops, we need them in the South. Thus Obama has failed at the G20, it did not get his economic stimulus and at NATO he has failed to get the extra troops he wanted, the elite press will pander, but the truth is that Europe is not afraid of Obama, thus he is a weak leader. Thus expect North Korea and Iran to exploit this weakness.
