I don't think our foreign policy exists to benefit us materially.

I agree for the most part. I think the exceptions were the stationing of US forces in Europe during the Cold War to counter what I believe was a genuine Soviet threat to Western Europe, and the Korean War. But it seems to me just about every other hot war or "conflict" we've gotten into was, as you say, to extend imperial power and secure markets (or resources).

Is a game of domination of based on lil tiny differences.

David Cameron became "distracted" after the 2011 intervention in Libya, US President Barack Obama has said.

Dear Americans,

Why is your President trying to offload the blame on our Prime Minister (and the rest of Europe) for his own hawkish foreign policy failures?

Yours sincerely,

A Brit

(Granted, our PM shares blame for following your President into the war to begin with, but I can't see the President's rationale for offloading blame in this manner)

Obama does seem to have a tendency to blame others in this way. He isn't one for taking responsibility.

That is of course wrong. It should only be targeted at the following countries.
Belgium, Bulgaria, Denmark, France, Greece, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden and the UK.

The rest of Europe didn't participate.


The funniest thing about the Libyan Civil War is that so much that Gaddafi said came to be true.

You say our president led the charge, but your own article says the intervention was led by Britain and France. I wouldn't say Obama's off the hook here, I don't think he actually said that. But if Britain led the charge they do deserve a goodly chunk of the blame. Just as our leaders deserved the blame in Iraq...

He said without him Europe would be flooded by Arabs and Africans, which is being fulfilled.

And he said at a (i think) OPEC or other Arab conference how after Saddam Hussein the West would come for them all too. After that very sentence you can see Assad, laughing along with everyone else.

So funny. :)

Libya is not Iraq. Why not start a fun anti-Israel thread for your needs?

The intervention was in 2011. Which Israel did not take part in, thus no involvement.


You aren't really good at this.

Well yes, Dave shares a lot of guilt for this, but I still don't like the idea of the US President feeling it's appropriate to publicly criticise another world leader, of a country he claims to have a 'special relationship' with. Just shows how much they take us for granted.

I doubt you'd see Obama making any sort of criticism against the Saudi Arabian leader. (Correct me if I'm wrong, I very well could be.)

Obama chides UK & Saudi Arabia, says conflict with China is possible
