President Obama: 'Do Not Get Me Into A War'



Daily Mail: 'Do not get me into a war': Leaked emails show Obama didn't want to engage with Europe over Russia because US could be seen as a 'threat'

* Emails stolen contain information from conversation between both former Secretary of State and supreme commander of Nato
* General Breedlove asked Secretary to convince President to take greater role in Russian conflict
* The chain from 2014 was posted on new website called DC Leaks

Hacked private emails have revealed how a US Nato chief believed President Obama did not want to engage with Europe or the Alliance over Russia because he thought they were a ‘threat’.

General Philip Breedlove, former supreme commander of Nato, said he feared the White House viewed the bloc as a ‘worry’ because their gung-ho attitude to war could drag the US into another conflict.

In an email to the former Secretary of State Colin Powell, he asked him to help him persuade the President to take a greater role in the conflict with Russia over the Ukraine.

Mr. Obama was smart. Getting into war with Russia the world's most powerful country would be most unwise. Unfortunately he allowed others to overide his initial good judgement.

What is your obsession with praising Russia?

I thought he was praising the US for not being stupid as usual.

Actually I wasn't "praising Russia." If you read my posts here in their entirety, I think you'd notice that. As to not being "stupid," that's about right. Conflict with Russia the world's most powerful military force is very stupid.

This is not a "fantasy." It is reality. Realize it. Act accordingly. It really isn't hard.
