He could have, but did not.

President Obama is to visit Saudi Arabia, apparently to reset relations with the kingdom. But do the Saudis trust him any more after his support for the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, the killing of Gaddafi and the nuclear deal with Iran? Will it end in the same way as the present of a 'reset' button to Russian Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov has done, with a civil war in Ukraine, resulting in a division of the country? Putin and Poroshenko have just agreed a prisoner swap. In a puzzling development the US and Saudi Arabia have just applied sanctions on terrorists in Pakistan. Which is joke unless you apply sanctions on the masters of terror, the Pakistan army and the ISI. The mystery is that Obama has refused to release 28 pages from the report on the 9/11 attacks. They are so secret that members of the Congress can read them but cannot take notes or be accompanied by their aides. The feeling is that the pages reveal Saudi government support for the 9/11 hijackers. After all, 15 of the 19 hijackers were Saudi citizens. Maybe, but why would the Saudis support Osama bin-Laden whose initial rage was against the Saudi royal family, for allowing infidel American troops to be stationed on Saudi soil, which he saw as a holy land? It is equally possible that the secret pages contain evidence against Obama's friends, Pakistan who so conveniently handed over bin-Laden to US forces in 2011 so that Obama could win re-election in 2012. A cable has come to light which shows how the ISI financed attacks on US soldiers in Afghanistan. What we have written many times. However, parts of the cable have been redacted. Why? Why is Obama still protecting the ISI? Hope it is not quid pro quo. Obama was quick to withdraw US troops from Iraq which allowed ISIS to take over large parts of the country. He is supporting some rebel groups fighting against Assad but not the Kurds who are providing actual soldiers on the ground. Why? To please Turkey or to please Iran? A huge explosion in the center of Kabul yesterday was witness to failed policy in Afghanistan. Obama thinks that killing Gaddafi was a mistake. Was it? He did not learn from the mess in Iraq following the removal of Saddam Hussein. Maybe, he just likes to kill. After all, he has killed thousands of innocent civilians and hundreds of children by the indiscriminate use of drones. In South Sudan, touted as a great foreign policy triumph, a fierce civil war has been raging, creating such famine that mothers are being forced to eat the flesh of their children. The sad 'resource curse' of Africa. Obama will be only 55 years old as he leaves office next January. Plenty of time to observe the world descend into bloodshed and hunger. Will he proudly say," Yes, I did."
