Bush made a terrible mistake and Obama continued on with it.
Taking out Hussein was a good idea. Sticking around and WASTING American lives and American money in trying to drag these 6th century savages into the modern world was a big mistake. And we are doing the SAME THING in Afghanistan.
Muslims are savages. Ungrateful, intolerant, violent savages. Islam is NOT a “peaceful” religion - its a death cult full of hate and ingratitude.
These people are not ready for democracy. Each and every one of the Arab Spring governments, generated by that fool Bush’s and that other fool Obama’s foreing policies will degenerate from a pro-western (sort of) military dictatorship, to an anti-western theocratic dictatorship.
Ask those damned fools Bush II and Obama if they are happy with their delusions now. My guess is Bush II is regretting it and Obama is quite happy with things as they turned out.
I even wonder about that. After Gulf War I Saddam was too weak to threaten his neighbors, but he was a counterbalance to Iran. Now that counterbalance is gone.
The Iraqi people certainly suffered under Saddam. But their suffering was also great in the chaos after Gulf War II. And it's not nearly over yet. I fear a civil war will break out in Iraq after we leave.
