| "If there is an emerging Obama doctrine to deal with the threat from alkayda and its allies, it is clearly a rejection of the use of conventional military forces and a growing reliance instead on the use of drones and U.S. Special Operations Forces -- and Brennan has been central to Obama's policy." |

| I havent noticed until recently how much I have underestimated Obama on his foreign policy. I am quite skeptical of Chuck Hagel though. He is another reason why the Republican party should be ashamed of themselves. |

| I underestimated Obama on foreign policy too. He's using drones very effectively. |

| I like how Obama has spent a fraction Bush did in order to eliminate more terrorists in 4 years than Bush did in 8. |

Drones cost less than armed personel because you do not need to pay to train them, ship them and give them their salary. Drones, however, kill way more civilians.
In Pakistan, I despise Obama's policy In Israel, I can't apologize enough for how much I (mis)underestimated him
But again, I am skeptical of Chuck Hagel, he is soft on Iran which I do not like. |

| Drone strikes in Pakistan have been cut to a third of what they were in 2010. Now there are a lot of strikes in Yemen. |

>Attack countries with drone strikes and kill thousands of civilians while doing it.
>Acting surprised that they would do something like Benghazi.

because drone strikes p!ssing off terrorist organizations is good policy also, the fact that terrorists have grown to a few hundred members in 2009 to now over 1,000 members (when a family or relative dies in yemen, for example, their loved ones get mad and join terrorist groups) must be such good foreign policy amiright |

| If the government could get a control over the random and unnecessary drone attacks, Obama's foreign policy would be considered amazing. |
