title : Aleppo Ruin Will Be Linked With Barack Obama’s Legacy Says Conservative Krauthammer
summary : Conservative author and commentator Charles Krauthammer said on Fox News Thursday the destruction in Aleppo, Syria, will be an often remembered part of U.S. President Barack Obama's legacy, rather than his foreign policy for the Iran deal or the death of Usama bin Laden. The chaos in Aleppo is the result of a years-long civil war between Syrian dictator Bashar Assad and rebel forces trying to overtake the government.

He said while military options short of invasion were tempting, it was "impossible to do this on the cheap."
