I think Obama felt the American public would be outraged over the use of chemical weapons, and 15 years ago, before Iraq and Afghanistan, we may have wanted to respond.
The world's perception of the U.S and our view of the world has changed though (I feel).
The world says they don't want our help and we don't feel appreciated when we expend $$$ and lives trying to be the worlds policeman.
It seems complicated but it's not.
We stick to a plan of protecting our friends and our interests.
Beyond that, we remain on the sidelines.
