President Obama and Secretary of
State Hillary Clinton, in their wide-ranging joint interview on CBS’ “60
Minutes,” defended what some critics have called the administration’s
unwillingness to engage in the world, particularly on Syria, which Clinton called
a “wicked problem.”
…
“We do nobody a service when we
leap before we look, where we take on things without having thought out the
consequences of it,” the president said, calling Syria
a classic example of how the United
States should be clear about its objectives
whenever taking any action.
“We want to make sure not only
that it enhances U.S. security, but also it’s doing right by the people of
Syria and neighbors like Israel that are going to be profoundly affected by
it,” he said.
…
…
And as I wrestle with those
decisions, I am more mindful probably than most of not only our incredible
strengths and capabilities, but also our limitations. In a situation like Syria , I have
to ask, can we make a difference in that situation? Would a military
intervention have an impact? How would it affect our ability to support troops
who are still in Afghanistan ?
What would be the aftermath of our involvement on the ground? Could it trigger
even worse violence or the use of chemical weapons? What offers the best
prospect of a stable post-Assad regime? And how do I weigh tens of thousands
who've been killed in Syria
versus the tens of thousands who are currently being killed in the Congo ?
Those are not simple questions.
And you process them as best you can. You make the decisions you think balance
all these equities, and you hope that, at the end of your presidency, you can
look back and say, I made more right calls than not and that I saved lives
where I could, and that America, as best it could in a difficult, dangerous
world, was, net, a force for good.
President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton,
sleepless nights, wrestles their dementia moral dilemma, weighty of
human life which life is precious than other, or which is more profitable than
other, ever so careful after spend trillions dollars lesson from Afghanistan and Iraq,
the trillions dollar love not really passionately be appreciated, very hefty cost
for the heck of lesson! Now they play safety, their own
mind chess game, if I move this in here there, leftward or rightward, or
hangs around with Russia bit more…, do nothing…, this minor part in here intent
to larger part… or jump few step award… shivering into cascaded moral darkness.
Syria
problems, all the oily rich Gulf states the want to open heir coffers why not
take ride, which is cost side! Well others things Palestine ,
Israel , Syria …Iran etc,
they can be solved, we human are born to solving problems, Curiosity at the Mar, Apollo went to the Moon, every problems can be solved. Have to change a thinking! Opposite way of thinking!
UPDATE: US underestimation
of her power, the world community ask US leadership in practically in
solving problems, but after dented by her previous experience, she puts herself
at the lonely centre at land mine field, she can’t stepping out in a inches of
her feet, how about she puts herself outside of the mind field with host of
friends!
