McCain lays out his foreign policy
Uzbekistan News.Net Wednesday 26th March, 2008
Senator John McCain, America’s Republican hopeful, has given his first major foreign policy speech.
In an address to the Los Angeles World Affairs Council, he said it would be an act of treason if the US pulled out of Iraq.
Senator McCain argued for closer cooperation with US allies and said: "Our great power does not mean we can do whatever we want whenever we want".
Senator McCain's statement was seen as an attempt to distance himself from President George Bush, who has repeatedly made unilateral decisions on Iraq.
His statements were also regarded as a strong rebuke to Democrats Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, who have emphasised they want to withdraw all US forces from Iraq as quickly as possible.
In his Los Angeles speech, Senator McCain pointed to the unique ties with Europe and said he wanted a self-confident European Union and a strong NATO alliance.
The Republican candidate promised he would close down the Guantanamo prison camp if elected president, and said he believed the US had a leading role to play in the fight against climate change.

McCain lays out his foreign policy
Americans needs to keep Guantanamo prison open for their own interest as they are training the army of blood hounds to carry out genocide all around the globe.if these blood hounds lives in their society, they will keep killing their own people.already hundreds of Iraq,Afgan returned soldiers convicted of murders which they have continued in their own society.IF YOU MAKE IRON WARM, IT TAKES TIME TO COOL DOWN.

Jews called Mccain in Israel to trial his ar**e.they found it too old but pretty smooth for the next 4 years.thats the main agenda of Mccain on his foreign policy as he endorsed by CIA by licking jews usury.4000+ American soldiers dead and nearly 50000 wounded both physiaclly and meatally permanetly,trillions estimated cost; how much the jews paid of this?nothing, they are smart and only buy the American president, rest of the things are absolutely free even entire America and all the Americans.and jews even make profit from the war contracts.that is their bonus for putting America into their wars.
