Hillary is a nation builder and ISIS is the result of her foreign policy. Obama didn't start the war in Iraq. He ended it after the Iraquis had their democratic elections. How was he supposed to keep American troops in a country that didn't want them and didn't pass laws to protect them? The sentiment of "Bring Our Troops Home" was at its height and people both Demoratic and Republican wanted our troops home. To blame Hillary and Obama administration entirely for ISIS is irresponsible and divisive. I am so tired of the Republican and Democratic blame game. It's ridiculous. We are one nation doing the best that it can with the info it had at the time.

I hate when I have to inform people on here of basic facts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seem to forget the reason we were tricked into war with Iraq in the first place. The U.S. installed a murderous leader who then created ISIS because the U.S. left a power vacuum in the state. That is now how you're supposed to leave a war zone. The U.S. still has troops in Germany from WWII. THAT is how you gradually pull out of a war zone after toppling someone's government. You can't just bring every troop home all at once or you're just going to get another awful regime and that is the fault of the Clinton/Obama foreign policy.

Next We weren't tricked into a war with Germany. It's must be great to be able to wash your hands of all responsibility. Try doing that in the real world. You will be jumping around from job to job blaming everyone else. Good luck in the corporate world. You'll need it.
