WASHINGTON (Reuters) – President Barack Obama on Thursday ordered the closing of Guantanamo prison and may start naming troubleshooters for the Middle East and Iran as he moves swiftly to repair America's tarnished image abroad. In a first-week flurry of activity focused squarely on rolling back some of predecessor George W. Bush's policies, Obama set a one-year deadline for shutting Guantanamo, barred harsh treatment of terrorism suspects held there and also closed secret CIA jails overseas.

And the results are pouring in! Terrorists around the world are rejoicing at our improved image and how it will make their job of killing us so much easier. "Before, many brothers were concerned they might be imprisoned and tortured. They did not want to have panties placed on their head like at Abu Ghraib. " said Abu Ibin Killinya, Al Quaeda spokesman. "Now they are more confidant and ready to kill the infidel. This is change we can believe in!"
