I'm confused.

Can someone explain it to me more clearly?

First, I'm writing this post just for clarity. I'm not writing this post to belittle anyone. I'm not writing this post to go against anyone in the American government. And, I'm specifically not writing this post to go against the President of the United States.

In fact, I'm a huge fan of the President of the United States, President Obama. I predicted that he would be the next President of the United States when he was a two-term Senator. Everyone was shocked to find out that I was right.

I'm writing this post for myself.

Just to make sure that I understand clearly what has been happening in the last year.

In August, President Obama said that the "red" line for US involvement would be if Syria used chemical weapons during their civil war. At the time, I thought to myself, well, that make sense, chemical weapons on a massive scale is extremely deadly. Yet, at the time, between 20 to 30,000 people were killed. On January, 2, 2013, the UN reported that 60,000 were killed in the war.

I'm confused.

You, President Obama, waited until 150 people were killed by chemical gas, as the "red line"?

And now, according to UN, 90,000 people have been killed?

Why didn't you do something when the first 1,000 people were being killed?

Why didn't you do something when the first 10,000 people were being killed?

Why didn't you do something when the first 100,000 people were being killed? Wait, we haven't gotten to that number....yet?

Mr. President, as a man who love history and the Constitution of the United States, havent you learned anything yet?

France came to our aid when the English was trying to quell the American rebellion.

Mr. President, haven't you learned that when a rebellion starts, that you must choose a side.

You cannot, must not, remain neutral when a country wants democracy!

Exactly, my point NYtimes.com.
