A Financial Times article by Gideon Rachman dated June 13, 2011, analyzing a speech by US Defence Secretary Robert Gates. Gates criticized NATO allies for their lack of participation in the Libya intervention and their reliance on US military spending. The article argues that this reluctance signals the end of 'liberal interventionism' and explains why the West is unlikely to intervene in Syria despite atrocities committed by the Syrian army. The document appears to be a clipping included in House Oversight materials.
