hi clo,

i understand what you are saying.

but for instance, obama forecast his air campaign plan re isis, and so they are already vanishing into the civilian population.

next step is that the western isis supporters will use their new-found knowledge back home.

in ukraine, he's defined sanctions but avoided giving arms to ukraine or providing air cover. now putin has moved his tanks into eastern ukraine and the ukrainian army is being hammered.

the ukrainian situation at best is going to become a long drawn out civil war. at worst, it becomes the model for the further expansion of putin's empire.

obama doesn't set the agenda. he reacts. slowly. to me he looks like he's far behind the curve. and indeed, the bullies and extremists are gaining in confidence.

it is very worrying.

Hi Cactus Flower,

Obama has sent help to those stranded on the mountain top.
He has bombed ISIS & continues to do so.
Since this has occurred Iraqis have stepped up their game & are making headway.

He needs to be careful in Syria. He does NOT want his actions to support Assad, the killer of nearly 200,000.

The Arab nations need to get involved, this ISIS cancer is in their midst.
Europe needs to engage, they have no borders.

Let's not forget the world is a much different place than when GHB was president, much different!
And our economy is much more fragile.

I do think congress should have comeback from their vacations early. They bitch, but dodge putting their necks/votes on the record....

Lets also remember, Obama took action to get bin Laden.

Its easy to get in the mix, its tough as nails to get OUT.
He needs to know what a 'win' is & when to claim it & leave the victor.
