Iran first. Iran was and is the proximally most dangerous of them. Knocking off Iran and unlimited fracking in the US and around the world would relegate Arabia to continuous shrinkage.

Worst thing to happen was the end of the Iran-Iraq war, thanks to errant US missile.

Moslem vs. moslem; ISIS vs. Iran brings back the good old days.

Obama began dealing with the Iranians even before he was elected. One prime demand of the mullahs in order to do business with the U.S. was that Obama withdraw from Iraq. I'm just speculating but I believe the Iranians offered to stand down their Shia proxies in Iraq to allow a smooth withdrawal. Outside of Chicago Obama is a rube and the Iranians have had him jumping through hoops for six years. His whole Middle East policy has been predicated on the national interests of Iran. Without understanding this things look very confusing.
