Syrian Use of WMD and Obama's Red Line
SecDef's....Gates, Panetta, and Hagel all report meddling by the Obama White House in US DOD Operations and Policy Decisions.
When Obama drew the infamous Red Line in front of Assad in Syria re his use of WMD, the US Military was positioned, prepared, and ready to react.
Assad did the dirty deed and Obama balked.
The end result has not been pretty.
How will Obama be judged for his lack of action?
Hagel: The White House Tried to ?Destroy? Me | Foreign Policy

"How will Obama be judged for his lack of action?"
Judged by who? By the same "informed" public that puts Trump at the top of the polls? Bush was unpopular because he Did something. Obama because he Didn't do anything. Now we have the vision of someone like Trump or Clinton who only know how to tickle peoples ears, saying what they seem to want to hear. We can only imagine how Putin judges Obama, after all he praises Trump.

That was RT mischief making and the die-hard conspiracy people ran with it even to the extend of claiming that actors were used. The BBC responded to the claims.
