Bush's legacy: let's check in on how Iraq is doing these days

[basquebromance]

The US invaded Iraq because of a lie, destroyed Iraqi civil society, and overlooked huge amounts of torture, rape, and murder by rogue U.S. troops. Is it any wonder why they hate us? It's our own fault.

Iraq’s Tishreen Uprising: From Barricades to Ballot Box

The huge demonstrations that rocked Iraqi cities two years ago reverberate still, with the main grievances unaddressed. Protests could arise anew at any time, risking another lethal crackdown. The government should hold those who harmed protesters accountable and work to ensure clean elections...

It has never been or even appeared to be stable. Last time it was stable was the Clinton years. Daddy Bush, left him a far more stable Iraq.

prior that…yes

Obama said to stay the hell out of Iraq
Bush wouldn’t listen

He also made peace with Iran
Trump fucked it up

The EU has pumped tons of money into Iraqi civil society. at least they're trying something, unlike America

destroyed Iraqi civil society,

You do know that if Saddam Hussain didnt see you smile at him, he just pulled out his pistol and shot you dead on the spot? I just dont see that being a civil society. Also if Saddam was such a nice guy, i dont know why the citizens hung him out in the desert sun?

If it was free and stable, why do you think the dumb the Son-of-a-Bush didn't bring our troops home? They were not kept there because it was stable. There were still Americans and Iraqi civilians being killed in action, suicide bombings, not like the surge of 2007, but hardly stable.
