[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The left is pissed because there is truth to his statement.  [/quote]

That doesn't even track.

1) There's no truth to the statement at all.
2) Even if there were, why would that anger "the left?"[/quote]

Absolutely there is truth.  He created the vacuum that allowed ISIS to emerge and grow.  It was actually predicted that a scenario like this would happen when he pulled all our troops. 
And, if you can’t figure out why this would anger the left, you are clueless.  [/quote]
A Republican security adviser from years ago came out and stated that the power vacuum was created when Saddam fell, as Bush Sr. knew and Colin Powell knew would happen.

When Obama pulled the troops out, the assessment he got from the military was that things were under control.  After they pulled out, one of the militiary leaders of the Baathist party took 1500 of his men and went to Syria.  They trained ISIS, who at the time had no military experience.  The ex-Baathists are actually somewhat secular. Their goal is to take back Iraq.  ISIS, OTH, does want a caliphate. There are fissions in that alliance.  But, ISIS probably wouldn't be able to form attacks without the Baathists training and help.

So, if you want to lay blame, you can lay it on Bush, Obama, all of their advisers, and all of the members of Congress who voted for the war: yes, that includes [u]Pence[/u] and Clinton.

and if anyone thinks that one man alone - Trump - can bring ISIS to a heal, they are stupid and naive.

I vote we send Trump to ISIS so he can try. [/quote]
