telling the truth is not spreading blame. History should record what actually happened, otherwise we will repeat the same mistakes.
Bush moved heaven and earth , spread misinformation contrived the war with single handed purpose ...that is the truth....Iraq belongs to Bush ...he busted up Humpty Dumpty and now all the Kings horse's and all the Kings men can't put Humpty Dumpty together again
you too live in libtardian fantasy world. History has recorded what happened and who was responsible, and, yes, Bush was one of them. But not the only one, not by a long shot.
Iraq s Government Not Obama Called Time on the U.S. Troop Presence TIME.com
In one of his final acts in office, President Bush in December of 2008 had signed a Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) with the Iraqi government that
set the clock ticking on ending the war he’d launched in March of 2003. The SOFA provided a legal basis for the presence of U.S. forces in Iraq after the United Nations Security Council mandate for the occupation mission expired at the end of 2008. But it required that all U.S. forces be gone from Iraq by January 1, 2012, unless the Iraqi government was willing to negotiate a new agreement that would extend their mandate. And as Middle East historian
Juan Cole has noted, “Bush had to sign what the [Iraqi] parliament gave him or face the prospect that U.S. troops would have to leave by 31 December, 2008, something that would have been interpreted as a defeat…
But ending the U.S. troop presence in Iraq was an overwhelmingly popular demand among Iraqis, and Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki appears to have been unwilling to take the
political risk of extending it. While he was inclined to see a small number of American soldiers stay behind to continue mentoring Iraqi forces, the likes of Shi’ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr, on whose support Maliki’s ruling coalition depends, were having none of it. Even the Obama Administration’s plan to keep some 3,000 trainers behind failed because the Iraqis were unwilling to grant them the legal immunity from local prosecution that is common to SOF agreements in most countries where U.S. forces are based.
