gives a "war is peace" speech, I think it is most certainly warranted to use the Orwell references.

Obama could have very well gave a speech in front of the U.N. or any number of other humanitarian or aid organizations on how the world must come together to build a constructive society in Afghanistan and how the U.S. should not be doing it alone. That the interjection of more violence and military authority is not the answer and aid for a war torn people is what is needed.

That is not the speech he gave nor the venue he chose.
