1 | MENA: Reactions to Obama's Inauguration | Faritra Arabo: Fanehoan-kevitra @ fitokanana an'i Obama |
2 | Today marked an historic moment in United States history as Barack Obama was sworn in as the 44th President. | Androany (20 janoary) no fotoana manan-tantara eto Etazonia hanaovan'i Barack Obama fianianana amin'ny maha-prezidà faha-44 azy. |
3 | While Arab support of Obama has been waning over the past few months following the selection of his cabinet and his silence over Israel's attacks on Gaza, across the Middle East and North Africa bloggers still have plenty to say. | Raha nihanihena ny fanohanana an'i Obama any @ tontolo arabo nandritra izay volana vitsy nanginany sy nanginan'ny governemantany nandritra ny fahafihan'ny Isiraely tany Gaza izay, dia mbola manana zavatra maro hotenenina kosa ny mpamaham-bolongana manerana an'i Moyen Orient sy Afrika Avaratra. |
4 | A Syrian in London shares a timeline of the past few weeks of Israel's attacks, then remarks: | A Syrian in London moa efa mizara amintsika nandritra ny herinandro vitsivitsy izay ny fizotran'ny fanafihana ataon'Isiraely, ary dia nomarihany: |
5 | Not since Kennedy, and some say not never, has an American President has had such attention with such high hopes, from around the world resting on his shoulders. | |
6 | In his inauguration speech, President Obama said: “we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord” | “NIfidy ny fanantenana isika handresy ny tahotra, fampiraisana ny tanjona hanosihosy ny ady sy ny fifandirana.” |
7 | “we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.” | “Tonga eto isika hanambara ny fampiatoana hatreo ny teny maharary sy ny fanantenana poak'aty, hanajanona amin'izay ny menomenona sy hanifika ny firehan-kevitra, izay nanakenda hatry ny ela ny politika”. |
8 | “In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. | “Eto amin'ny filazana indray fahalehibiazan'ny firenentsika, fantatsika fa tsy atolotra velively izany fahalehibiazana izany. |
9 | It must be earned.” | Tsy maintsy rombahina io.” |
10 | “we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals” | “Ariantsika ho toy ny diso ny fampisafidianana ny filaminantsika sy ny idealintsika” |
11 | Dare we grieve the dead? | Sahintsika ve ny hanala baraka ny maty? |
12 | Dare we hope for the living? | Sahintsika ve ny hanantena hiaina? |
13 | Jar of Juice, a blogger based in Dubai, felt that Obama's speech was a bit lacking: | Jar of Juice, mpamaham-bolongana mipetraka any Dubai, no mahatsapa fa misy banga ihany amin'ny kabarin'i Obama: |
14 | While I think Obama's speech was brilliant - he did not flinch when he said “Muslims” but was trying hard to sound genuine when he “thanked” the imbecile of whom we do not speak of after today - I think there was a crucial element missing in this event… | |
15 | …but I guess Obama won't lower himself to acknowledge that fool more than the diplomatic gesture in his speech. | … saingy maminavina aho fa tsy hifotetaka “hanamarina” ilay adala i Obama afa-tsy noho ny teny sy fihetsika diplaomatika atao mandritra ny kabary. |
16 | Moroccan blogger Laila Lalami, who is a US resident and admits to voting for Obama, is slightly more hopeful, and glad Obama's day has come: I'm glad that day has come. | Mpamaham-bolongana Maraokana Laila Lalami, izay monina any Etazonia ary niaiky fa nifidy an'i Obama, no hita ho manam-panantenana ary faly fa tonga ny andron'i Obama: |
17 | Eight years ago, I voted for Ralph Nader because I thought there really wasn't much of a difference between Democrats and Republicans on the major issues. | Valo taona lasa izay dia nifidy an'i Ralph Nader aho satria tsy hitako loatra izay tena mahasamihafa ny demaokraty sy ny repoblikana amin'ny adihevitra lehibe. |
18 | But after the debacle in Florida, the Supreme Court decision, and the abysmal presidency that followed, I learned a simple lesson: Not all politicians are equal. | Saingy taorian'ny saritaka tany Florida, sy ny fanapahan-kevitry ny Fitsarana an-tampony, ary ny fitotonganan'ny fomba fitondran'ny filoha tamin'izany dia nahazo tsoa-kevitra aho: Tsy mitovy avokoa ny mpanao politika rehetra. |
19 | There are some who are so talentless, so impervious to common sense, so lacking in simple compassion that they make a mockery of the office. | Fa dia misy ny tsy manantalenta mihitsy, tsy mahay misaina, tsy manana famindram-po hany ka lasa fanesoeso any am-birao. |
20 | I suppose I'm too cynical now to expect vast differences in government policy but I am still fired up about this particular change, about Barack Obama, and about the departure of George W. | Mieritreritra ny tenako ho tsy mino ny fisian'ny olona tsara aho ka hanantena loatra izay tena fahasamihafana eo amin'ny politikam-panjakana saingy mbola mirehidrehitra kosa aho amin'ity fiovana iray ity, dia momba an'i Barack Obama sy ny fisotroan-drononon'i George W. |
21 | Bush. | Bush. |
22 | Moroccan Obama fans are still actively campaigning for President Obama to give his first foreign speech in Rabat. | Mbola manao fanentanana aok'izany moa ireo mpankasitraka an'i Obama ho filoha any Maraoka mba ho any Rabat no hanaovan'ny filoha Obama kabary ivelan'i Etazonia voalohany indrindra. |
