Actually, the IRI was afraid of Bush. They thought he would attack Iran after Iraq & disposing of Saddam. And that would have been the perfect time to do it. Unfortunately, he started listening to the wrong people around him & eased up. Then the IRI started their offensive, arming & training the Iraqis, teaching them to build IED’s, wounding & killing our soldiers and generally causing chaos in Iraq.

Idiot Bush took out Irans biggest enemy, Saddam. In place of Saddams check on Iran, Bush sponsored the creation of an Iran- friendly And with secularist Saddams heavy hand lifted , the jihadis ran wild through Iraq, genociding the ancient Christian community. - all on Bushs watch
And Bush spent (or borrowed) trillions to create this disaster. Funny how a lot of conservatives only get worked up about wasted trillions when AOC or Bernie are proposing it. We can throw trillions down Middle East ratholes and lots of conservatives dont raise a peep
