TODAY'S BIG NUGGET: Obama's Wariness of War is NOT Crazy

Obama’s Foreign Policy Book (Thomas Friedman) from the New York Times 
"... when so much foreign policy involves dealing with countries that are falling apart or an entire region engulfed in civil war — and the only real solutions are not deterrence but transforming societies that are completely unlike our own and lack the necessary building blocks and we already spent $2 trillion on such projects in Iraq and Afghanistan with little to show for it — the notion that Obama might be a little wary about getting more deeply involved in Syria and is not waxing eloquent about the opportunity does not strike me as crazy."
