Ironically, had Bush not gone into Iraq, there would probably have been an ‘Arab Spring’ in Iraq, which Obama would have supported, and the radicals would have likely wound up in charge anyway. In my view, after being attacked as a nation, we established a beachhead in the Middle East, occupying our enemies there. We just walked away from it and essentially handed it to the radicals.
