REPORT: Now, a U.N. investigation has put even that victory in question, leading critics to hammer a U.S. president they say is too stubborn to admit he was wrong to pull back on military strikes, even after he’d warned the regime there that chemical weapons use would cross a “red line.” The U.N. report, released earlier this week, found that Syrian President Bashar Assad has used chlorine gas against civilians at least twice since 2013, violating the Chemical Weapons Convention, which he joined as part of the deal he struck that year.

We didn't have a dog in that fight. We should have sought stability after Iraq and Afghanistan. Instead we sowed further chaos and instability.

He didn't have a dog in the fight until he drew a red line and then capitulated. The world community saw that capitulation and collectively laughed in our general direction.

Cpl (Join to see) - That's true, but still unnecessary. I'd rather the world laugh at us for having an incompetent president, knowing that his time in office is limited, than waste the lives and efforts of our military men and women. Additionally, I don't like the thought of us propping up allied foreign groups only to lead them to slaughter.
