Unfortunately, it seems that Roosevelt's wisdom is lost on our current president, whose foreign policy might be better described as "tweet loudly, and gesticulate with a small stick".
A Syrian refugee is thanking President Trump after a US -led coalition launched airstrikes in Syria to punish the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad for a suspected chemical weapons attack on civilians.
Eid had spoken with Huffington Post prior to the airstrikes, calling for the death of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
He hoped to be able to tell the president that he "proved once again, yesterday, that you have a big heart". Obama needs Congressional approval. A resolution to authorize force never made it out of committee, however, as only 26 senators indicated they'd support it, with 20 opposing it and 54 too craven to even take a position. "I directed this action In response to the Syrian government's continued and unlawful use of chemical weapons, including the horrific attack in Duma, Syria on April 7 that injured or killed numerous innocent civilians".
Donald Trump leveled the same criticisms against President Barack Obama over Syrian strikes that were later used against him.
"We have been very clear to the Assad regime, but also to other players on the ground, that a red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized", Obama said.

Trump's finger-pointing, even though Obama's actions in 2013 aligned with Trump's recommendations at the time, were likely the result of a guilty conscience.
Ultimately, he called for "real, long-term commitment" to bringing peace to Syria, including holding war criminals accountable. The intended targets: Syria's chemical weapons facilities.
With his usual empty braggadocio, Trump on Saturday tweeted "Mission Accomplished!", echoing former President George W. Bush's ill-conceived celebration aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln in May 2003, just as Iraq was on the brink of a sectarian bloodbath.
A Syrian refugee praised President Trump for his decision, unlike his predecessor, to "do something" about the chemical attacks in his country.
In her remarks at the J Street conference, Rice said she thought that Trump was "correct" to order a military strike following the first Assad chemical attack more than a year ago and went on to claim that Trump's "unpredictable" nature could have been advantageous at that time.
