‘Morning Joe’: Obama Will Be Harshly Judged for Aleppo Just as Bush Was for Iraq
EXCERPT:
SCARBOROUGH: "It's no longer good enough. And it's -- it -- it may be too late now to do anything, but it's no longer good enough for the United States presidents or president-elects to say this is not our problem. History will judge George W. Bush harshly for the decisions he made going into the Iraq war. History will judge Barack Obama equally as harshly for allowing this Holocaust to move forward. And by the way, despite what you hear on cable news chatter and read on the blogs, history will also show that Iraq, by 2010, was stable. And it was the immediate withdraw of those troops that many Americans supported, I understand. But it was that immediate withdraw of those troops that created a chaotic situation, that allowed this to start unfurling along with the United States funding the rebels and silently encouraging the rebels to rebel against Assad. And so when they did, we drew a red line, Barack Obama allowed Assad to use weapons of mass destruction, and then he did nothing."
