Obama is afraid to do anything. He doesn't have any idea what to do anyway. It's just like when he voted "Present" all the time in the Senate. Indecisive. No balls.
And now he's even more frightened because Russia and China are supporting Assad.

Innocent, unarmed men, women and children are being slaughtered in Syria, while Obama is busy apologizing to some stone age cavemen in Afghanistan for accidentally burning some stupid books.

The very least we should do is arm them and give them air cover. They're human beings.
One thing is for certain; evil prevails when good men stand by and do nothing.
