When we overthrew Saddam and defeated the Iraqi military, we (the US) refused to allow the former Iraqi military to integrate or participate in the new Shia government and military.

So,Al Queda, was formed by the disenfranchised, former Iraqi military units, complete with their command and control structure. It soon morphed into ISIS with US State Dept help and funding.

ISIS is not a collection if ignorant street rabble like out news media depicts them, they are a coherent fighting force that 0bama thought he could use to depose governments in the area he didn’t like, and not have to mess with congressional approval.
