A—>B-—>C
A = Iraq invasion & removal of saddam
B = Obama removes all troops prematurely from Iraq
C = Birth of ISIS.
Without A, B would be impossible.
Without B, C would be improbable.
I don’t believe removal of the troops would have created ISIS either. I believe there was ACTIVE policy of arming rebels in the Middle East that contributed to the instability. Other nations are involved in the arming/funding of rebels to take on national armies in Libya and Syria
I believe Russia see what’s happening in the Middle East and tried to mimic it in Ukraine
C should be arming/funding rebels
D Birth of ISIS
A = Iraq invasion & removal of saddam
Did you forget the real reason for A.
