==Obama war crimes in Libya==
{{See also|Obama war crimes|NATO war in Libya}}
On March 21, 2011, [[President Obama]] publicly announced U.S. military forces commenced no fly-zone operations in [[Libya]] two days earlier, on March 19, "to prevent a humanitarian catastrophe" and cited UN Resolutions as giving him the authority to do so. Secretary of Defense [[Robert Gates]] warned establishment of a no-fly zone meant attacking Libya.<ref>https://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-20038391-503544.html</ref> Officials such as [[National Security Advisor]] [[Tom Donilon]] and Deputy National Security Advisor [[Denis McDonough]] also opposed to attacking Libya; but [[Hillary Clinton]], tossing her "[[smart power]]" doctrine to the wind, "won the [[bureaucratic]] battle to use [[Department of Defense]] resources to achieve what's essentially the [[State Department]]'s objective... and Obama let it happen".<ref>[http://thecable.foreignpolicy.com/posts/2011/03/18/how_obama_turned_on_a_dime_toward_war How Obama turned on a dime toward war.]</ref> The [[Charter of the United Nations]], in Article 2(4), prohibits the “threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence” of a member state, and many observers have wondered whether the establishment of a no-fly zone would constitute a violation of this prohibition. The [[Congressional Research Service]]s advised that a no-fly zone imposed against a state that has not carried out an attack on its neighbors may consider the imposition of a no-fly zone an “armed attack.” CRS warned that even if no-fly zone operations in a given state do not constitute an “armed attack",

The [[Benghazi rebellion]] which resulted in the deaths of [[American]]s started as a series of protests in eastern Libya on February 16, 2011. Ansar al-Shariah, an offshoot of Al-Qaida in the Maghreb (AQIM), vowed to overthrow [[secular]] strongman [[Muammar Gaddafi]]<ref>[http://www.dawn.com/2011/02/24/al-qaeda-in-n-africa-backs-libya-uprising-site.html Al Qaeda in N.

Abdel-Hakim al-Hasidi of the U.S. organized [[Libyan Fighting Group]] said [[jihad]]ists who killed American troops in [[Iraq]] were now serving on the front lines in Libya.<ref>[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/libya/8407047/Libyan-rebel-commander-admits-his-fighters-have-al-Qaeda-links.html Libyan rebel commander admits his fighters have al-Qaeda links.]</ref><ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/25/world/guantanamo-files-libyan-detainee-now-us-ally-of-sorts.html Libyan, Once a Detainee, Is Now a U.S. Ally of Sorts.]</ref> On March 20, 2011, [[NATO]]'s Supreme Allied Commander James Stavridis told the [[Senate]] Foreign Relations Committee, days before President Obama publicly disclosed his decision to intervene, that US the [[intelligence community]] knew of [[al Qaeda]] and [[Hezbollah]] elements among the rebels.<ref>[https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/libya/8414583/Libya-al-Qaeda-among-Libya-rebels-Nato-chief-fears.html]</ref><ref>Appearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee, Stavridis was asked by Republican Sen. James Inhofe to comment on "reports about the presence of al Qaeda among the rebels, among those with whom we are associated." "As you can imagine, we are examining very closely the content, composition, the personalities, who are the leaders in these opposition forces," Stavridis responded. "The intelligence that I am receiving at this point makes me feel that the leadership I am seeing are responsible men and women who are struggling against Colonel Gadhafi. We have seen flickers in the intelligence of potential al Qaeda, Hezbollah, we've seen different things, but at this point I don't have detail sufficient to say that there is a significant al Qaeda presence or any other terrorist presence in and among these folks. We'll continue to look at that very closely. It's part of doing due diligence as we move forward on any kind of relationship." http://cdrsalamander.blogspot.com/2011/03/saceur-j2-please-call-your-office.html</ref> Two days later a leaked email from Stravidis email to David Manners, business partner of Marc Turi who resigned as a congressional staffer to Sen.

On March 2, 2025 the ''[[London Telegraph]]'' reported former Supreme Allied Commander [[US Navy]] Four Star Admiral James Stavridis said that since the [[Trump administration]] made it clear that [[Ukraine aid|aid to Kyiv]] could become a "[[geopolitical]] miscalculation of colossal proportions....We may be witnessing the last days of [[NATO]]".<ref>[https://archive.is/QrPQA End of Nato alliance could be ‘days away’, warns former commander], Cameron Henderson, ''The Telegraph'', 01 March 2025. www.telegraph.co.uk</ref>
==[[Iran war]]==
Stavridis said on [[CNN]]: the USS Abraham Lincoln has “80 combat aircraft, and you can move it right up to the coast.” Not only that, but there may soon be “long-range strategic bombers” going towards “the island of [[Diego Garcia]]” alongside “[[F-35]] Lightings, the most advanced [[fifth generation]] fighter in the world, out of Doha, [[Qatar]].” And more airpower could be coming. [[CENTCOM]] announced today on [[X]] that [[U.S. Air Force]]s Central (AFCENT) will be conducting a multi-day readiness exercise that could be used as a pretense to surge numerous other aircraft to the [[Middle East]]. Further bolstering U.S. firepower are newly arrived [[THAAD]] and [[Patriot missile]] batteries for [[air defense]] and four British Eurofighter Typhoon jets now in [[Qatar]].
As Adm. Stavridis said, the gathered forces give “the president a lot of [[military]] capability and options” but '''there would still be risk''' should the [[U.S.]] decide to launch an attack. Analysts warns that [[Iranian]] [[drone war|drone swarm]]s could threaten U.S. naval vessels, and both the [[Houthi]]s and [[Kataib Hezbollah]] have pledged to join [[Iran]] in the event of [[war]], with the latter group posting videos on social media [https://caliber.az/en/post/iraqi-militia-members-volunteer-for-suicide-operations-in-support-of-iran dozens of fighters] sworn to become [[suicide bomber]]s.<ref>https://youtu.be/bKlEC_N2V8w</ref>
