POTUS Did NOT Defend The Iraq War

81. You are wrong.

"President Obama said. "But even in Iraq, America sought to work within the international system. We did not claim or annex Iraq’s territory, nor did we grab its resources for our own gain. Instead, we ended our war and left Iraq to its people, and a fully sovereign Iraqi state could make decisions about its own future."

We didnt seek to work withing the international system. We gave the United Nations the finger. We did "grab their resources" and gave them to private corporations.

We did cause the deaths of maybe a million innocent iraqi's. We cause the death of thousands of American soldiers that had put their faith in their leaders. We took $2 trillion dollars from the lower classes and gave it to the wealthy.

Pres Obama tried to downplay our war crimes, our violations of international law, in order to be able to preach to Putin.
