Obama NOT the decisive President after all
 
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.p...w&pageId=95451

Multiple opportunities to free the captain of the Maersk Alabama from three young pirates were missed, these sources say – all because a Navy SEAL team was not immediately ordered to the scene and then forced to operate under strict, non-lethal rules of engagement.



They say the response duty office at the Pentagon was initially unwilling to grant an order to use lethal force to rescue Phillips. They also report the White House refused to authorize deployment of a Navy SEAL team to the location for 36 hours, despite the recommendation of the on-scene commander.



The White House also turned down two rescue plans offered up by the Seal commander on the scene and the captain of the USS Bainbridge.
The SEAL team operated under rules of engagement that required them to do nothing unless the hostage's life was in "imminent' danger.

That's simply because the rest of the world didn't really know that these teenager were just misguided youths who were taking a joy ride in the lifeboat!

However, our all knowing, all seeing president knows the difference. Actually, we probably could have saved ALL the lives if the SEALS would have gone in with their own plan.

Don't misunderstand me, I didn't shed a tear over the news that the snipers hit their mark. However, maybe we can just build a youth home for wayward pirate teens or make them our "friends." :D
