In another major move toward diplomatic relations, (click here) President Barack
Obama is removing Cuba from a list of state sponsors of terrorism.
Obama made the move just days after he had a meeting with Cuban President Raúl Castro at the Summit of the Americas in Panama.
The White House says on Twitter that Obama has submitted to Congress required reports and certifications indicating his intent to take Cuba off the list.
Obama made the final decision following a State Department review of Cuba's presence on the list. The U.S. has long since stopped actively accusing Cuba of supporting terrorism....
Hello !!!!!!
I take it "the book" didn't include the process required to remove groups and countries off the terror list. How good of President Obama to do his homework.
There is no relationship between The Clinton Global Initiative and the USA Terror List. I makes sense the Foundation would receive monies from countries and groups coming off the terror list. The Foundation, the Former President and Former Secretary are trusted fiends of many, many countries and people. What a shame they don't advocate for oil company subsidies.
But, to return to the relationship between The Clinton Foundation and the International Community; it happens to appear there are pay to play. That isn't the case. Any country coming off the US Terror List has gone through a process. The country's leadership would recognize the need for benevolent experts to entire their policies and programs. That is the only relationship.
What I find interesting is the lack of countries coming off the US Terror List under "W." It wouldn't benefit the US Military Industrial Complex to do so.
"W's" big achievement in foreign policy is: On December 13, 2001, (click here) President Bush announced the withdrawal of the United States from the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty.

In a move that reflected what he said was "a vastly
different world," President Bush formally announced today that the
United States was withdrawing from the Antiballistic Missile Treaty that
it signed with the Soviet Union in 1972.
Russia termed the move a mistake, but said it did
not feel threatened by the decision. China, which was not a signatory to
the pact, repeated its opposition to the missile defense system
proposed by the Bush administration.
In making his announcement, Mr. Bush declared at the
White House Rose Garden, "I have concluded the ABM treaty hinders our
government's ways to protect our people from future terrorist or rogue
state missile attacks."...
I guess I would be worried about the world the grandkids are inheriting, too.
