Iraq Collapsing

[SparrowHawk]

Because he is the Anointed One!

 
Anointed? In What? Bullshite?

 

[777 fixer]

And Obama continued the policies of Bush so how does he escape blame?

 
Blame in what sense?  How is Obama to blame for the current situation in Iraq?

We are still there aren't we?
He's the Commander in Chief correct?
 
We marched in under Bush, we could have marched out under Obama. We chose not to on Obama's decision. and NOW? We're back.

Yeah, they're afraid they might be called by their God-given name: RACISTS!

Can't you come up with something better than that?  Hate to break the news to you but Obama did not invade Iraq.

We have an embassy there and advisers who would not be there were it not for the collapse of the Iraqi Army.
 
To answer you question could we have marched out under Obama the answer is we did.

 With an Embassy Staff of something like "17,000 contractors" you're trying to tell me we are not in Iraq? Really? They all must be blow-up dolls.

Ron Paul election math?

"The United States has a staff of about 5,500 at the embassy and at two consulates in the north and south of Iraq."

"Other Americans in Iraq, particularly contractors working for companies that had been training the Iraqi military on weapons systems purchased from the United States, have already left."

WOW, the hair just split all the way in half.

So now you are anti-American.....?


 

More like a traitor. That idiot and some others in Club 700 thinks that the US is at fault for all the problems in the world, supports an administration who is laughed at by Putin and the Islamic radicals. He's clueless of historic hatreds between Sunni and Shiite Muslims. That's the fault of a country founded centuries after the Mideast madness started?

ISIS is working closely with the terrorists in Yemen who are trying to find new ways to blow airliners out of the sky and that SOB has the nerve to blame the US? If you want to see what we are facing, just Google liveleak execution of Syrian soldiers. Too graphic to link.

We need someone in the White House with courage and conviction, not a Hillary "do nothing" while our embassy gets attacked. Just like Carter who I had the pleasure of contributing to voting out of office in 1980. Like Hillary who was paralyzed by hostage takers and thugs. Iran releasing them the day in 1981 when Reagan became president. I wonder why? Could it be he was not going to tolerate being pushed around be an Ayatollah?

The current WEAK administration can't exit soon enough.

 

[Ms Tree]

So your president is going to do what? Put boots on the ground somewhere eles? Put boots in the Ukrain? Bomb the Ukrain? That plan has not worked well before. Why would it.work this time.

also read the Putin wants better relations with the US. Wonder why.

 

[snapthis]

Tree, I don't think there is a need to put boots on the ground in Ukraine. Reagan's policies contributed to the collapse of the Soviet Union  without firing a shot. Hostages in Iran were released without firing a shot. Putin? He's playing Obama because he does not respect him. The ex-KGB agent has his number, not the one he dials on a telephone.

 

[Dog Wonder]

Reagan's policies contributed to the collapse of the Soviet Union.

The Soviet Union's policies played a much larger role than Reagan's did.

 

[snapthis]

The Soviet Union's policies played a much larger role than Reagan's did.

Their policies which were reactionary to Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative and the realization their defense spending would have to increase to counter the US played a huge role in the Kremlin's decision making.
