Why Did Obama Apologize For Pentagon's Strong Message To China?

 Investors Business Daily




. . . "Guess what happened? Obama's Pentagon threw the Air Force crew under the landing gear. It apologized to China for the B-52 flight. Seriously.

"The Pentagon's sad story is that bad weather caused the giant bomber to drift off-course. Uh-huh. True, those eight-engine, strategic workhorses cover almost 10 miles a minute. But weather doesn't affect GPS.

"B-52s can deliver a standard or nuclear weapon to a specific city block anywhere in the world. And each has one crew member dedicated to position-monitoring.

"So even with oblivious Obama off golfing again in Hawaii, his minions apologized unnecessarily to a strategic competitor for doing what we said we'd do to oppose China's unlawful territorial claims.
Weak, feckless U.S. actions."

Thomas Lifson comments on the incident here: Obama's 'paper tiger' doctrine  . . . "Coming in the wake of Obama’s Syrian “red line” that was violated with no consequences, it teaches the lesson to aggressive foreign governments that U.S. threats are not to be feared, and that the U.S. will back down.

"This is a recipe for encouraging aggression against the U.S.  Until Obama leaves office, the U.S. is in a very dangerous situation, with aggression seen as without cost to our competitors."

5 Top Foreign Policy Flops of 2015  "President Obama stated in his year-end press conference that the most important events going on are the press overhyping the threat of terrorism and a screening of Star Wars at the White House."
