As bad as getting rid of Hussein and Gaddafi was as it left the door open for even worse (Hello ISIS) regimes, can that be any worse the than the muslim brotherhood infiltration in our own White House that gave us Benghazi?
We need a president (Cruz) who understands that the enemy of my enemy IS STILL MY ENEMY!
When I was in Iraq I spoke to a member of the Human Resources Team who had a PhD in Middle Eastern Studies. I asked her what she thought would happen when we left Iraq. She said that Iraq would be fine because of their “national identity and pride.” I asked about Iranian influence and terror groups causing issues and she again stated that a united Iraq would never allow that to happen.
I told her that I thought Iraq would splinter into sectarian violence and Iran would be a big influence. Also that the government of Iraq was too weak to do anything about it and they depend too much on US assistance.
But then again, I only have an Associate degree so I guess she knew more than I did.
