Well, first of all he waited 30+ days to make a decision. Second, we have subsequently learned there was NOT mass slaughter or targeting of civilians, third, he made a half-hearted effort based on politics that basically assured the "allies" would fail.

If you go to war, you go to win.

It's a shame the archives only go back to 2007....I could show you things that would make your head spin....lol

I've learned to pay NO attention to her posts......generally they are meant to be argumentative and inflammatory without any logical and coherent perspective.

...unless you're America. Then, you go to war to spend trillions that we don't have and must be paid back with interest.

Already answered this; Obama waited 30+ days to make a decision, by then, it was OVER, the rebels were on the run, cornered in their last remaining stronghold. He then decided for some strikes and proceeded to turn the whole lot over to NATO, where the bombing and NFZ has been botched from the beginning. Other NATO members are reticent to ramp up the bombing, are resisting putting troops/advisors on the ground and WON'T do the fighting for the rebels, which is the only way they can win.

Then we find out AFTER we already committed resources, there was NO slaughtering of civilians (shouldn't obama have known about that BEFORE), then we find out that elements of AQ are within the rebel ranks (shouldn't obama have known about that BEFORE), where he proceeds to give them millions of dollars in supplies and more in predator drones.

He has botched it from the very beginning when he decided he would engage...but not all the way, when he decided he would turn the leadership role over to France.

There IS a reason liberals have been traditionally distrusted in military matters.

Officials in and out of the WH, Pentagon have said what a mess this "mission" is. So have the pundits and FP experts.
