If we wanted stability in Syria, Iraq and Iran, we should have left Saddam Hussein in power.
Bingo!
I would also add that most of these whining fidiots about the Kurds know very little about them or the complexities of the region which has been a disaster since WWII. America needs to disengage from the Bush and Obama era sh*tstorm.
Exactly!
That was not stability. Hussein had attacked the Kurds with gas, Iran, Kuwait, Saudi Arabie, and Israel.
He was not adhering to the terms of the cease-fire at the end of the first Iraq War.
He was also killing his people at will, and his sons were raping and pillaging everything in sight.
He was moving troops up to foreign borders despite restrictions. He was targeting our aircraft in the area.
Calling Iraq stable under him is a massive stretch of the imagination.
