Sadly, the Donald has a lot to learn in the foreign affairs area - he continues to say that we shouldn’t have gone into Iraq because the area was “stable” - in fact it was a powder keg ready to go off - Saddam was a Sunni running a minority Sunni regime in a majority Shiite country by way of a reign of terror that had him killing tens of thousands of his own people every year to hang on to power - he had won two prior wars against Shiite Iran with the help of the US, but after Kuwait, we weren’t going to help him again - his army was badly weakened after the Kuwait disaster - the pictures along the “Highway of Death” showing hundreds of his burned out military vehicles and the way his military collapsed in a few weeks when we entered Iraq suggest that he wouldn’t have lasted for long against the next Iranian incursion - so by now it’s very possible that without our having gone in, Iraq would by now be under the control of Iran, including the 500 tons of yellow cake - ie nuclear weapon raw material - that Saddam had collected and which was transferred out of Iraq after we took over.....
