You imply that Obama had a direct hand in the decision. Instead, the US military fucked up, and Obama issued an apology.

That's a far cry from writing an article recommending the bombing of Palestinian radio stations.

Oh, right, the military made a little whoopsiedoo when they deliberately committed that war crime and stopped all investigations. We should blame the guy in charge of the military. Commander in Chief... Barack Obama?

I'm sure the families of the victims were moved by the apologies and the $6000.
