Another Dumb ass Bush
-
That's the legacy of dem voters who were stupid and voted for obaMaolies.
A sick, arrogant, witless president who will not listen to anybody else on earth.

Just a few short years ago Joe Biden was claiming Iraq to be one of Obama's biggest successes. Then Obama pulled all our troops out of Iraq and now about half the country has been lost to ISIS. Obama did not listen to the military who wanted a residual force left behind to help keep the country stabilized.
It sickens me to see this administration take so lightly the loss of major cities in Iraq to ISIS when we lost so many soldiers to secure those cities. You can make the argument Bush should not have went to war in Iraq. You can also make the argument having gone to war and investing in all of our lost lives and billions of dollars we should have tried to protect the investment we made in that country instead of withdrawing all our troops. Bush accurately predicted what would happen if we pulled all the troops out too soon.

We would have had to keep troops there until the end of time. There was no proper way to exit. Saddam kept the country on lock for so many years by gassing people and using tactics we wouldn't do. That is the only way you could keep all of those factions under control. We would have to be there forever and put U.S. personnel at risk to try and referee fights that have gone on thousands of years.

After we had invested so much in securing that country we needed to protect our investment. We have had troops in South Korea since the end of that war and we still have troops in Germany. Keeping a residual force would have been a good investment in my opinion.

Did the South Koreans and Germans have a millennial long confrontation involving several internal factions motivated by a religion that condones murder?

We have already seen the results of pulling out of Iraq too soon. The surge under Bush worked well enough to bring some of those factions together as we got help from some of the Sunni sects in liberating cities like Mosul, Fallujah and Ramadi all of which have now been taken over by ISIS after we left.

We would have to be fully committed to Iraq until the end of time or find a way to convert them all to a religion that doesn't scramble their brains.

So do you realize how utterly Retarded it is to keep troops permanently stationed in places? Is North Korea not still major asshole? So maybe our interference there as well did no favors to the Koreans. Germany? We're not there to keep tabs on the germans, you know that right? And being stationed in Germany is A FAR FAR FAR cry from being in the middle east. As someone already pointed out, TILL THE END OF FUCKING TIME we would have had to be there. You have to wash your hands of it at some point. It didn't work out, all there is to it.
I hope all the young kids thinking about going into the military see this shit. You're being asked to go around the world and defend so called American interests when infact you're just making shit worse. A few people make "astounding" amounts of money off the engagement and you and your buddies are left with personal lives in utter tatters. And nobody in Washington gives a fuck about you on any day of the week as well as Sunday. They talk like they do, but they don't. Military service in this country has become a farce. You're not fighting anymore for your country you're fighting for the special interests that dominate the current regime in power. This is not what the founders had in mind.

S . Germany? We're not there to keep tabs on the germans, you know that right?
Merkel has complained about US electronic spying on Germany....
but keeping troops in Iraq or Afghanistan is pointless and a waste of lives.
both parties are too comfortable with bombing brown people as the chief foreign policy statement.

wow at least one of you understands what exactly the dynamic is we're dealing with in the middle east. The Nazi's and the NKZ are comparatively speaking little French school girls compared with 1800 years of a civil fucking war where the people believe they get 75 virgins in heaven from Allah if they blow up a Mosque of the opposing sect who are also fucking muslims.
I get upset thinking about the cockstarters in this country who decided it was a good idea to hop into that regions business a century or so ago.

What is wrong is to have gone to war, lost hundred of lives and thousands wounded soldiers, spent billions of dollars to secure Iraq and then just abandon everything and leave. Military commanders told Obama to leave a residual force but of course he knows more than his generals. What is happening right now is exactly what Bush said would happen if we pulled all the troops out too soon.
Bob Woodward was right about this:
"As for President Barack Obama's decision to leave no residual force behind when American troops left Iraq in December 2011, Woodward indicated it would have been better to have left 10,000-15,000 troops behind as "an insurance policy" as military commanders suggested.
"We have 30,000 troops or more in South Korea still, 65 years or so after the war," Woodward said. "When you’re a superpower, you have to buy these insurance policies, and he didn’t in this case. I don’t think you can say everything is because of that decision — but clearly a factor." -
unaffordable to keep troops there ad infinitum. Actually quite outrageous to listen to republicans gripe that we're not spending enough money on some foreign policy sinkhole. Unreal. Everyone in business knows at some point you cut your losses. It's a sunk cost. Can't get it back no matter what you do.
