Obama has made it clear that he doesn't want to enter any military conflicts, and he's been scaling back American military involvement all over the world the entire time he's been in office, which is really pissing off the Saudi's and the Israeli's.
The UK parliamentary vote against military action in Syria was a godsend to Obama. He was pleased as punch.
