Ex-officials start to admit spineless Obama ‘left a more dangerous world’

Former president Obama’s wimpiness against foreign adversaries left the world a more dangerous place.

That’s what ex-Obama officials Barry Pavel, Gary Samore and Michael McFaul said while praising President Trump‘s decisive actions in Syria and Afghanistan this week.

“I think [Obama] left a more dangerous world,” Pavel told Fox News. Pavel was a senior director on the National Security Council from 2008 to 2010.

Pavel said America’s enemies knew that Obama “had the capability, but not the will” to retaliate against aggressive actions, so our enemies did whatever they felt like without fear of repercussion from the United States — the only superpower in the world:
Because they knew that the Obama administration would never use military force for any purpose, they felt free to conduct their coercive actions in the South China Seas, the Russians went into Iran and Syria, and North Korea accelerated their nuclear arms program.”
Under Obama’s watch, ISIS was born and spread to more than 18 countries around the world. Pavel said Obama’s major mistake was not putting his foot down in Syria, such as when president Bashar al Assad attacked civilians with chemical weapons in 2013.

Instead of retaliating against Assad for violating international treaties banning the use of chemical weapons, Obama lied and claimed the United States had destroyed Syria’s chemical-weapons arsenal. That was proven false when Assad reportedly attacked civilians with sarin nerve gas last week.

I don’t think he won in ‘12, either. Saw him at some function the night before the election and he did NOT look happy. In fact he looked like he KNEW he was going to lose.

I guess a lot of votes got manufactured.

The powers-that-be just couldn’t have “The First Black President” be a failure.

It’s so unreal, looking back on it. Remember how people got in trouble for just saying his middle name?

FReepers had some interesting comments to make about the NBC series "the Bible" a year or so ago. They questioned if NBC was intent on making a respectable presentation or not?

One aspect of the serious I never saw addressed, was the depiction of the Devil/Satan in the series.

To me, this aspect of the series seems to fit right in here.

This is how NBC chose to depict that character:

Ouch!

Not spineless so much as on the wrong side.

Yep, his lack of action furthered the decline of the US, which clearly was a major goal.

Anything to beat down America as number one.

Your photo post shows two children. Joe Biden should have paid more attention to Obama’s treachery but that is why Biden was chosen to be VP - he is absolutely clueless and a butt-kisser.

I pray that we will soon not have to hear, or see their ugly faces on any news reports. Soros is the puppet master and he needs to be arrested.

The worst president in history.

With his continuous treason since leaving the WH arguably the most evil man the Republic has ever known


The Commonwealth of Virginia voted for him, twice.

Liberals love to call President Trump egotistical and self-centered, yet I could not imagine him doing that Obama Selfie thing, even in jest.
