Leading From Behind on Libya

Concerned Veterans for America has launched a new video series on the failures of the Obama administration’s foreign policy doctrine of “leading from behind.” The launch begins with Libya as a case study in what’s gone wrong with U.S. foreign relations. Watch the video below:

“Libya is a prime example of why Obama’s strategy of ‘leading from behind’ makes the world a more dangerous place and America less secure,” said Pete Hegseth, CVA’s CEO, in a statement. “The Obama administration touted the military operations against Libya in 2011 as an example of their new and improved national security strategy – war from the air, no footprint on the ground, and allies taking the lead. But the current chaos in Libya today shows that that strategy has been a complete failure that has only emboldened and strengthened radical Islamic groups that threaten not only the region, but also America and America’s allies.”
