In reply to the discussion: Perhaps most succinct explanation of who is 2 blame 4 Isis. U get 2 guesses at the 2 culprits [View all]DhhD
(4,695 posts)27. Bush/Cheney bombed Baghdad to go after whom? Their faces appear on the deck of playing cards.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Most-wanted_Iraqi_playing_cards
Al Quida was not allowed in Iraq by the Sunni controlled government of Saddam Hussein. Bush/Cheney had to allow an enemy to come in. The fight was now on two fronts. Third front is now what is being fought against: The Saudi Arabian Wahabist that sell, rape and pillage Iraqi.
Bush/Cheney certainly own the destruction of the social, government, and economic stability of the power balanced government of Sunni Iraq. These Iraqis and their followers were run out of Iraq by the US Bush/Cheney appointed Shiite government, just as the OP details to be replaced by the Wahabist Beasts. Bush/Cheney own the whole mess. Obama works to clean up the mess. Will the American people allow JEB to spill more ill by electing him president? I do not think so. Will Hillary Clinton continue to clean up the mess? I do not think so. Clinton voted for war even after Poppy Bush and Bill Clinton knew better than to invade especially after many studies of that possibility. Again, I find another reason not to be able to trust Hillary Clinton.

OP
Better than most, but it was Petraeus/Hillary who facilitated the Qataris in moving Libyan fighters

Do you think that is the reason the Republicans want Hillary's e-mails and keep talking about

Wouldn't it have been great if there had been more profiles in courage like Chafee and Bernie then?

For whatever reason includes doing it because it was the politically correct thing to do at the time
