R2P in Syria

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. The White House says the Syrian government breached President Obama's "redlines" after all by using chemical weapons. So, having unilaterally abandoned Iraq and Afghanistan in the name of ending wars, Mr. Obama is unilaterally getting us into a new one - a civil war, no less - by providing "military assistance" to Syria's al Qaeda-dominated "rebels." Welcome to the "responsibility to protect" - a notion embraced by some on Team Obama, like Samantha Power, the president's controversial nominee to be our next UN ambassador.  She and other promoters of R2P, as it's known, believe military force should be used, but only where we have no interests. Tragically, applying it here will embroil us in a wider war doomed to make make Mr. Obama's previous R2P debacle in Benghazi and elsewhere in Libya pale by comparison.
