This interview over at the Atlantic is worth reading, for two reasons:
1) Our president implies throughout that Iran won’t be allowed to complete a nuclear weapon.
2) Our president says outright that he and his team do not expect Syria’s Assad to remain in power.
Yes, Barack Obama’s re-election would be a disaster of world-historic proportions. And yes, there are legitimate questions about how consistent or workable a foreign policy is reflected in this interview, but nonetheless, I am thankful for what he is saying.
