Re: “Who thinks Obama is a pacifist hippie?,” Sept. 25 Jeffrey Goldberg column.
Jeffrey Goldberg’s criticism of a magazine cover showing President Obama as a “hippie” is off base. Although Obama is taking action (finally) against terrorist groups, his past actions — including the “red line” in Syria, the “reset” in relations with Russia, and leading from behind in Libya — have encouraged extremists and tyrants and made the world a more dangerous place.
