Backing the Saudi war in Yemen is BHO's greatest foreign policy failure. It's derelict that his chosen successor isn't being asked about it.

Main BHO foreign policy failures: Yemen (2015), Libya (2011), Iraq/Syria war (2014), Ukraine (2014), drone strikes (2009), Gaza (2014)
-
Also on the list: 2009 Afghanistan escalation (pushed by HRC) which achieved nothing -- except the worst year of US casualties in 2010.
-
Another addition: US support for Sisi's military coup in Egypt (2013) -- shameful episode. Violated US law re: foreign coups, but no matter.
-
Look at how all-around awful BHO's record here is, then recall: virtually everyone agrees that HRC will be several orders of magnitude worse

Why would you think Israel would have been incapable of bombing Gaza on their own? Seems they are fully capable.

agreed but US presidents surely would read success in a totally different way. Don't care about suffering they cause.

The "bombardment" was in response to Gaza terror attacks. You didn't know that?
