Obama’s Stance On Syria: Weak Or Wise..?

Without getting into the rights, wrongs, should, shouldn’t, truths and deceptions that belong to the situation in the Middle East – and there is obviously a very great deal of deeply disturbing, tragic wrong in innocent people going through untold suffering and dying horrible deaths – Obama’s move to put an attack on Syria to a vote in Congress brings to the surface a deep enquiry about the purpose of leadership.

What would the world we live in be like if its elected leaders where:

Able to expose their struggle and great strength of being humanly vulnerable – to get things right, to be correct, to do the truly right things for the benefit of humanity?
Tell the truth as they perceive it without holding back while being open to be corrected?
Demonstrate the right kind of hesitation and thinking things through properly and responsibly before making decisions that impact the futures of millions of people?
Genuinely consult and listen – really listen – to ensure that he or she are representing the best interests of the people they represent and next to that, formulating the wisest and most
constructive action strategy?
Have as their highest purpose the good of the people and the greater good of humanity in a way that firmly overrides the interests of anything lesser?

What if..?
