Obama is a war criminal in Libya, Pakistan and Yemen.
Yes but as long as it jump starts his old campaign funding network for his 2012 campaign, it's good to be the king.
If this doesn’t kill his 2012 president hopes, I don’t know what will.
AKA a goat in the middle east...
Obama is following the lead of the Brits and French because they asked.
