29. No some would have still turned out to be murdering thugs ....
.... but by destabilizing the region and blowing up their homes, schools, and businesses we made many many many future jihad warriors.
Whether you support the Iraq war or not, the fact is we were there and it was up to the next president to make sure we stayed until the Iraqis were capable of taking on a group like ISIS. The Iraqis wanted us to stay and were ready to agree to whatever conditions we wanted. Instead of what was best for the people of Iraq or respect for the blood and treasure we lost, 0bama decided it was more important to appease you asshats instead of acting like a CinC. Iraq WAS stable. People were able to return to their homes, schools and infrastructure were being built (that must be where all those shovel ready jobs went). Their lives were better than they were under Saddam. While our troops were there ISIS stayed away. Then came 0bama. Not only did he decide to pull out, he actually telegraphed the date. ISIS simply circled that date on their "Women of Jihad" calendar and waited. Hint: even if you are leaving, you don't let your enemies know the date or time.
As soon as we moved out, ISIS moved in, taking over whole towns. People either had to run for their lives, submit or die. The fact that 0bama had to send troops back should've been a major clue that we left too soon. Now he's doing the same thing in Afghanistan. That one you cannot blame on Bush because 0bama also thought this was a righteous war. You can bet ISIS will move into there too. Heck, 0bama even armed them.
FYI, ISIS is NOT comprised of Iraqis who lost their homes, you stupid, naive freak. They're an offshoot of Al Qaeda who didn't think they were moving fast enough or being brutal enough. They want to turn every piece of land they capture into an Islamic state that will be the Taliban or Iran on steroids. They're from all over the world but mostly Muslim states. The dude starring in most of the beheading videos is from England. What home or school of his was blown up? The guys that burned the Jordanian pilot (a fellow MUSLIM) to death have no connection to Iraq. ISIS is filling a vaccum left by our lack of leadership. YOUR party owns this. YOUR president lost this battle and the next president will have to fix it because they have to be stopped.
Next time our men and women will be fighting a group 10 times more evil that Al Qaeda. A group that was formed because YOUR president is a ****ing *****. The entire Middle East is on fire. Iraq has not a damn thing to do with this. Most of what's going on now is because of the Arab Spring the boy king tried to take credit for. That has done more to destablize that area than Iraq and Afghanistand combined. They fear no one because the one country that usually stands up for those who can't stand up for themselves don't have the stomach for it. This administration doesn't want to just appease them but prop them up as often as they can. We're trying to make people that hate us into allies while thumbing our nose at nations who've been our allies forever. What can you expect from an administration that has Muslim Brotherhood working at Homeland Security.
