. Seems the people of Iraq have finally joined the fight...since they are pushing back and taking territory.
With Tinydancer's hero {Maliki} going away, the Sunnis in Iraq will accelerate their participation in the fight against IS terrorists in Iraq.
Obama's is wisely therefore demanding a comprehensive strategy involving other Sunni powers in the region to do the same type of ground operation in Syria that will not incude battalions of US ground troops like Bush stupidly sent into Iraq in March 2003.
Obama has no strategy. His first move was to get rid of Maliki. Things gotten any better? Nope. He doesnt know what he's doing. He doesnt know what to do. He knows to play golf and raise money from the 1% while his ass kissers like you declare the GOP is the party of the rich.
Things have gotten better. Pay attention.
Really? When we left Iraq it was a stable democracy. Now? Not so much
When Obama assumed office Russia was mostly minding its own business. Now? Not so much
When Obama became president the Arab Spring was just starting, with hope for democracy breaking out in the Middle East. Now? Not so much
When Obama became president we had a strategy for Afghanistan that didnt involve headlong retreat leaving the country to the Talibam. Now? Not so much/
Please point to one area where foreign policy looks better now than when Obama took office. The Saudis have written us off. Israel has written us off. Iran is just laughing at us. Putin eats our lunch every day. It is a total disaster.
