-If needed, the US will respond forcefully to Iranian efforts to destabilize the Middle East, Kerry said in an interview.-
Does Mr. Kerry say these things with a straight face? Or with a red face (out of embarrassment)?
This administration’s inept foreign policy has been the laughingstock of the world for almost seven years now.
They got that wrong.
Obama IS currently acting forcefully and more aggressively from a diplomatic standpoint that it ever has in the region.
It's just that Obama has taken United States actions in the region in negative and counterproductive direction that is destroying our allies and providing aid and comfort to the enemies of peace and stability in the region regardless of whether those enemies of peace and stability are Sunni or Shia muslim terror masters, Afghani or African Radical Islamic Warlords, or Chinese and Russian oligarchs.
President Obama is intentionally destabilizing the Middle East and Iran is simply taking advantage of the opportunity Obama is handing them on silver platter
