VICE on HBO "Fighting ISIS" (This is a must see) [View all]

http://www.vice.com/read/watch-the-trailer-for-our-hbo-special-report-fighting-isis


The take away from this is two fold:

1. We cant win, it is a lose lose no matter what we do, including if we do nothing.

2. Of course the blame goes to W and Cheney for this absolute nightmare, but in 2010 the Obama administration decision to stick with Maliki was problematic, to say the least.
