The indecisiveness of the Obama administration on the Syria and Egypt political crisis



As the World, keeps on witnessing the atrocity brought to innocent people by their elected government and mediocrity taking a toll in the Arab world the Obama administration indecision on the issues takes the American interest at jeopardy. Being the big brother to the world its indecision creates a number of questions on the world fundamental political and economic stand of the U.S and other countries in the world. The most astonishing attribute of Washington’s policy toward Syrian and Egypt crisis has been its lack of transparency, which is the main reason as to why both parties of the crisis and the world at large blame America.
In regards to the previous and past events, it will be prudent to give the American government the benefit of the doubt because it has not recovered from the recent Iraq war, which was the most expensive war in its history. The status quo in the countries such as the Arab world and Africa has brought about the unsteadiness of the political environment witnessed today in those countries. The much-needed change that the Washington government is championing for a decade now, has forced the United States of America to create a number of policies of foreign policies, which has not resonated well with both their allies and foes at greater lengths.
While Assad kills his people in brutal ways with the backing of Russia and keeping in mind the length of which he accomplishes his goals then somebody somewhere asks what the role of big brother is. It is time for U.S indecisiveness to end. Though there is a loud cry on the reasons for not going to Syria, it is clear to all the concerned parties that something must be done and this is the time. Today the Rwanda genocide still lingers into many individual minds with many blaming the Washington government for not taking the needed actions. Though launching missiles from the ocean and funding the rebels might not be the answer to the Syrian crisis, it is still clear that something must be done to end the political crisis that is consuming the Syrians people and fueling world tension among the big economic and political players. It is high time that the Obama administration comes out of its indecisiveness to save the tears and the blood of Syrians without making one more indistinct, vague decision, one that will see him favoring all parties involved on the issue. As an alternative, he ought to grab the chance to elucidate America’s position on the crisis.
