I don't have to agree with him on everything. But I think he's tried very hard to relieve some of the tensions over there. However, he's inherited a mess, and it's not easy to clean up. Remember the Republican warhawks are criticizing him all the time for "lack of strategy." And they want to expand the mess to Iran.
Stay on his side. He's our best hope.
