This is what happens when you abandon allies, reveal all your playing cards and show all your Chess moves in advance to the enemy. Al-Qaieda and Iran know the US is out, time to move in and let the slaughter begin.

This President has abandoned friends and embraced enemies. It is 100% natural that they (Al-Qaieda) are causing mayhem in Iraq before they swoop in and declare victory.

Thank you Mr. President for sticking by your “reset” type principles. Advance, to the rear!

It would seem that it is time for the Iraqis to come to the aid of THEIR country. Why don’t they ask the Chinese who have the oil contracts with them?????

Hey idiot writer; Al Qaida didn't have a terror network in Iraq because Saddam had that all locked up himself. It was a freaking terrorist state. To it's own citizens and neighbors, and it was an ally to any anti-U.S. powers like AQ.
