Bill Clinton has taken issue with President Barack Obama’s Syria policy saying “it’s a bad mistake” for the United States not to intervene, US media reported Thursday.

Speaking at a private event, the Democratic party icon and former president made a rare foray into foreign policy at a moment when the Obama administration is under growing pressure to act on Syria and arm the rebels.

The US is boosting military support to the main Syrian rebel group after determining that the government has used chemical weapons against the opposition, a top White House official has said.

"The president has made a decision about providing more support to the opposition, that will involve providing direct support to the [Supreme Military Council], that includes military support," Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes told reporters on a conference call on Thursday.
