I don’t know if Obama is pro Islam, but after the heck he has gotten from Conservatives for intervening in Libya, he will have a good excuse to stay out of this one.
The Libya thing is complicated; GWB said Libya was a good guy, then Obama started his own war against another Musilm country with them (our third simultaneously). It is obvious that the secular US government is at war with Islam (for its own secular reasons, certainly not defense of the family or the like), and they’d never be able to deny it if they went to war with a FOURTH Muslim country.
Based on values alone, there is no reason for us to be fighting these countries (and we are fighting Iraq & Afghanistan, regardless of what the media says - they certainly acted as though W was fighting them). We have a president here who won’t defend the law of the land (Defense of Marriage Act).
We all should have known this isn’t about “the people” the moment Obama demanded Mubarak step down. At that moment we lost all of our long earned allies in the ME, and in return, we’ve gained......nothing.
