I've never read a single statement by obama that he would attack or invade another country that has not attacked the us. have you?

"I understand that President Musharraf has his own challenges," Obama said, "but let me make this clear. There are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered 3,000 Americans. They are plotting to strike again. It was a terrible mistake to fail to act when we had a chance to take out an al Qaeda leadership meeting in 2005. If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf won't act, we will."

Don't know if unapproved military incursions count as attack or invade, but it will make some bad folks nervous.
