Obama Fail : What is his policy in Iraq?

Discussion in 'Politics' started by jem, Jun 11, 2014.

  1. My condolences for your loss, and for your service. A disgrace to see all of our money and fellow citizens lives wasted in iraq just for them to flee their own land.

  2. Sorry about the death in the family.
    I know how you feel. Different time, different war. Same wasted effort. I remember watching this on TV as the memories flooded back of my time. To be honest, all I could do was cry.
    Fuckin' bummer. My condolences for your loss, both family and the war.

  3. Angry at the "5 Jihadist generals swap for one douchebag deserter"? Or, about our pullout from Iraq and subsequent events?

    (Personally, I don't think we EVER should have been in Iraq... shame on Bush for that one.)

    ISIS leader was released from captivity in 2009. To think both Kerry and Hillary say the 5 released Tali's won't be a threat stretches reality to it's breaking point.

    The ISIS now has money and they have American weaponry. It's bad enough we didn't finish Iraq the first time (thanks Colin), but to go in a second time, spend so much blood and treasure, and then flush it all down the drain because of reckless politics...mostly to further the false claim that AQ was dead.

    I still can't get over Kerry and Clinton are saying the released detainees are not a threat. Wonder if that was said about the current ISIS leader.

    " The FBI “most wanted” mugshot shows a tough, swarthy figure, his hair in a jailbird crew-cut. The $10 million price on his head, meanwhile, suggests that whoever released him from US custody four years ago may now be regretting it."

    I don't drink anymore, but I do have the urge today. Looks like I'll be driving to the gym in a few minutes. And thanks for the kind words.

    The deserter would have been shot by firing squad for that long ago. That was when America had common sense; that was when America was free...
    No, we shouldn't have been in Iraq. Bush screwed that one up as he did most everything else. And yes, ALL of the US Military is in an uproar, and that's not good at all. When the morale of the people who protect America is completely broken, nothing good can result. I'm really at a loss for words during this very dark time in America...:(

    Thank you!

    And no, I really don't know what else to say either. Words really don't sum it up..

    These terrorists should have been tried, and hanged. ALL of them. End of story... They'll now be free to kill Americans all over again. UNREAL! Kerry and Clinton should have been tried years ago as well!
