It seems that every time wego to France for help, War in the Middle east/Afghanistan ect... They would send just a couple 1000 troops are not get involved at all.

You say that like it's a bad thing?
Yes, they didn't really support the unjust war in Iraq that directly or indirectly killed hundreds of thousands and plunged the entire Middle East into permanent chaos and despair. A war that almost broke our economy as well, and is still an incredible drain of resources ....... likely to grow again soon.
We send the money, manpower, intel and so forth- we already represent the war against terrorism- ahh but fixing to get funding cut off for DHS -- so- maybe not

That's exactly right!Hundreds of thousands of Iraqis dead because of our invasion of their country!
The President needs to fly halfway around the world everytime there's a shooting in the workplace? Think about that one.
What a totally 'ASININE' remark!
What difference does it truly make if he showed up or not? I personally didnt understand the point of the rally. The terrorist know they're not like, and its not like they rule the country
It was a show of solidarity against the sick b*****ds if nothing else,that would have been good enough for me.... not to mention the sympathy for the loss of the victims,D-U-H !
President Obama is the most powerful man in the world. The Paris incidents are a European issue and it was mostly European leaders (plus some African and ME leaders) in attendance.
And on another note, why is the world at a stand still about the few killed in Paris when THOUSANDS were killed by Boko H aram's massacres in Baga?
I don't know why the massacres in Africa aren't a bigger topic of interest and coverage. But I felt the same way about the Rwandan genocide - WHERE IS THE INTERNATIONAL OUTRAGE?
Why aren't world leaders marching arm in arm in the streets of Abuja??????
I'm not concerned with whether Obama is a good president or not ....... this incident was well thought out, not a bumbling accident, advisers and administration huddled together and came up with an inscrutable judgment that we shouldn't send anyone of importance.
Why? It might be an important clue in discerning what's really on the minds of our fearless leaders.
If they did show they would have just called it 'work place violence' as they did with the Ft Hood attack, and left out the reference to Radical Islam and Terrorist.
