yes... but still, as leader, he must feel ineffectual (that was a good word).
Anyway, it's an ego thing... it's a self esteem thing. I'm not saying he should have, or could have stopped it.
I'm saying he didn't... and if I was in his position... I'd feel that I had failed my nation. And I'm sure he does.
He is trying to prove to the nation, to the world and to himself that he's not a failure. That he is a hero... that he is a good leader.
Even if the world doesn't think he's failed in those things... I'm willing to bet that he feels that he has. And is trying to feed his own ego by flexing his military muscle and "doing some good in this world"
