Which is a good thing, yet in her situation bringing up the illusion of supporting future and the associated terms of progress and (positive) change is a lame gesture as the US history shows, but then again she asks us not to look at history and I (begin to) wonder why.

Of course, this doesn't absolve you from seeking justice and forgiveness where appropriate but in my vocational area (pastoring/counseling) I find a lot of people locked in the past. It's over.

Its a neat one, because it means that they actually never have to take responsibility for anything they do, but it makes for a nice positive sound-bite. Its Tony Blair's standard response when asked about Iraq. Refusing to take responsibility for the past, only the future, is a favourite trick of politicians.

Excuse me, this comment is not another example of "Anti=Americanism" as you call it but are you sure about this? For example did George Bush and Tony Blair ever discuss bombing the offices of al Jazeera? The media seem less interesting at Davos than last year but this sort of thing may be in the background. Here in the UK the Official Secrets Act and the views of judges prevent the reporting of a trial and a report in the Daily Mirror as if they were a joined up story. Not so for media outside the UK, including the Jurist. Good for them, reporting current events in context. No sense of history, just optimism.
