And not just Saddam, but a pinned-down Saddam, with the US controlling air-space and the Kurds operating an autonomous region.

And not just ISIS... ISIS and Iran.

Why is it an either/thing? Isn’t it possible to have an Iraq that it better than Saddam while defeating ISIS?

ISIS is not in control of Iraq. Your question is meaningless.

ISIS is the direct result of the Democrats’ 2007 demand to cut funding and pull out of Iraq in 2007. The rest is history.

Iraq was won, WON up until the point US troops were removed in 2009. There was no ISIS, Al-Qaeda-in-Iraq (aka ISIS) was in exile in Syria, Baghdad was secure. When I departed Baghdad in July 2007 there had been 7 attacks across all of Iraq the prior week and no Coalition casualties.

Up until 2009 Iraq was won, it was stable and secure.

Then the Dems cut off OCO funding in the 2007 budget forcing the US withdrawal.

Iraq went to HELL when the US had to pull out due to Dems’ and the media’s treachery.

Iraq wasn’t lost. It was won, then thrown to the wolves for the sake of Democratic party optics and budgetary greed. They lost it because they didn’t want it won. They wanted Iraq OCO funds for their own programs. They didn’t give a rat’s A for US foreign policy or veterans -and never have btw.

EVERYONE knew what would happen if the US pulled out. And the Dem Congress MANDATED withdrawal by cutting funding for the US to stay.

The US military won the Iraq war. The Democratic party and the liberal MSM lost Iraq and allowed ISIS to achieve regional strength. They own it.
