Oren: America Doesn't Want to Be the World's Policeman
(Jerusalem Post) Israeli Deputy Minister Michael Oren told the Harvard Alumni Club in Israel on Tuesday that "America today is not prepared to send a meaningful force to the Middle East. This is an America that is prepared to sit on the sidelines while half-a-million people are murdered in Syria and while Europe is flooded with refugees," Channel 10 reported. "This is an America that is not prepared to intervene in Syria, this is an America that doesn't want to be the world's policeman, and prefers to focus on its own internal issues." "This is a reality in which we are going to have to learn to stand on our own two feet."
