"Iraq is so much better today than it was. It isn’t threatening any other nations. It’s quiet and peaceful there. Of course that ignores the Obama funded and armed ISIS moving over the landscape. Other than that, Iraq had been quiet and nothing compared to the Hussein years."

You forgot the sarcasm tag.

When I reference the situation, I’m talking about the people and government of Iraq. I am not referencing ISIS, because if we had stood up to them or even bombed them appropriately, they would be nothing but dust right now.

Obama didn’t want them stopped. Can’t blame that on Iraq, as far as that goes. Iraq did fail to live up to its mandate to defend itself.

That’s a fair argument. This ISIS thing caught the nations in the area flat footed.
