Obama urges unity against global extremism

Barrack Obama has confronted international leaders in his most recent speech to the UN. He would like for world powers to confront the turmoil in the middle east. Obama gave his speech on tuesday at the annual gathering of world leaders. This would be the last speech he will have in front of world leaders, before the November elections. "I do believe that it is the obligation of all leaders, in all countries, to speak out forcefully against violence and extremism,'' Obama said. Campaign Politics shadowed his words, when he was talking about Iran's nuclear program, the ongoing violence that seems like it won't stop in Syria, and the potential peace between the Israelis and Palestinians, as well as the tensions that come with free speech in democracies. 

"True democracy, real freedom, is hard work." Obama said.
