The White House: President Biden stated the following in his speech, " We will press forward with speed and urgency, for we have much to do in this winter of peril and possibility. "
Lets Get Real:
The Biden inaugural address called for UNITY, but for a US President, its problems from abroad that can define a Presidency, just ask Jimmy Carter with Iran and Afghanistan, and even President Obama with his red lines over Syria. The TV cameras showed one can assume Bill Clinton falling asleep, okay the speech was not up there with JFK, Ronald Reagan or Barack Obama, but it was a decent enough speech. Even President Obama seem to close his eyes, it could have been the weather. This blog did not watch the Inaugural live, it has watched every such event since 1981, the blogger expected a boring speech and event, and thank goodness it turned out to be that. The Times of LONDON reported in its hard print version that the North Koreans could test the new Administration with a test of its missile from a sub. One the one hand the people of North Korea are starving, but the regime is testing sub launch missiles, then Iran will demand that the US lifts some of its sanctions before it goes back to the Obama Iran deal. As stated by this blog, the Biden Administration will appease Iran, Israel must keep a careful eye on Tehran, if POTUS will not secure the security of Israel then Israel must. As a wise old UK PM once said to a junior Minister ( there were all men then ) when a junior minister asked what could go wrong, " Events boy, Events ". Thus the Biden Administration will be challenged from abroad, that could define the Biden Era.
