"This article discusses the significance of the disappearance of the war on terror from the diplomatic lexicon of the administration of U.S. President Barack Obama. The author also notes the awareness in U.S. diplomacy that international relations are complicated by intercultural relations and that the U.S. government ignores such realities at its own risk and talks about Obama's speech delivered to the Muslim world in Cairo, Egypt, which centers on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict."
