Pesident Barack Obama gave his first television interview as President of the United States to an Al-Arabiya. I have to say that after watching the interview I was impressed. I think it was important for people in the Muslim world to know that they should not fear Americans. During the eight years of the Bush administration, Muslims could not relate to us because our president was constantly talking about war and invading countries. President Obama mentioned that he has family members who are Muslims and that he has lived in Muslim countries. He has a world view and I think that some people in the Muslim world will like that about the president. I mean you are more likely to negotiate with someone who knows a little bit about you and your way of life than a person who just does not want to understand you or the people who are from your country. Hopefully, this interview will help the war on terror so that so many people in other countries will not fear us and try to harm us. What did you think of the interview?
