Obama and US Power - Timeline by John Rees

US presidents keep invading other people's countries. Why is Obama, who promised change, no different?:

"Why have Obama's war policies turned out to be little different from those of George Bush? Because, explains this short video by Stop the War's John Rees, "US foreign policy is not mainly determined by the character of the individual in the White House."

"In his latest Timeline film, Stop the War's John Rees explains why Barack Obama -- the candidate who promised 'change you can believe in' -- has turned out to be a president whose war policies are largely consistent with those of his predecessor.

'US foreign policy is not mainly determined by the character of the individual in the White House' but by a wider US governing elite which has key figures embedded in Obama's administration, just as they were in the previous government.

As the US economy weakens relative to the rest of the world, this elite sees overwhelming military superiority as a way of maintaining America's international power, whatever Obama's hopes to be different from George Bush."
