Barack Obama a 'dithering, controlling, risk-averse' US president



Barack Obama is a "dithering" president whose controlling tendencies and extreme risk-averse attitude to foreign policy has damaged US interests in the Middle East, according to a new book by a senior former State Department adviser.
"The president had a truly disturbing habit of funnelling major foreign policy decisions through a small cabal of relatively inexperienced White House advisers whose turf was strictly politics," Mr Nasr writes in The Dispensable Nation: America Foreign policy in Retreat.
 
It looks as if the rumor that US foreign policy is directed by a radical Left wing ideologue coupled with a corrupt Chicago pol, Valerie Jarrett.
