Deposing Saddam Hussein and disbanding the Iraqi army left a vacuum. Pulling American troops out of Iraq was part of an agreement signed with Iraq. Facts.

Btw, Reuters told their reporters to cover the Trump administration basically like it’s an authoritarian regime — they used their reporting work in Phillipines, Egypt, Yemen, China, Russia etc as examples of how to report on Trump. Reuters also warned their reporters to expect physical threats.
Good to see someone…

Not too many... another way to say that is exactly 1. And he didn’t have nearly the expansive repertoire or the technology that President Obama had. It’s like saying that President Obama sent the most emails of any president.

Syria was obviously mishandled, but it would be much worse for us to continue to occupy Iraq, Afghanistan, and also invade and occupy Syria. Is there any middle eastern country you don’t want us to occupy?

Wow, almost as if he’s the first president to have drone technology for his entire presidency!

Not quite. The raid was planned by the military, but the Obama administration decided it was too risky for the possible benefit and rejected it as an option.

Number of drone strikes is not the measure of one’s propensity for war. One President took the nation into 2 massive wars. One President presided over the end of those wars.

First, thank you for your service. Yes, I agree Obama’s record when it comes to international conflict is hardly spotless. However, that is not the point I’m making or that any of these posts should be read as a complete defense of Obama. The point is that the situation Obama inherited was due to a reckless, poorly…

To be fair, bombing with military drones, is a relatively new form of warfare, so of course Obama had more drone bombings than Washington, Lincoln or Kennedy. He also lost far more horses on the battlefield!

Typical internet troll looking to stir shit up. Maybe stick to your Candy Crush Saga and McDonald’s ya fuck.

The ‘most drone bombings ever’ President of Peace

Whataboutism doesn’t get us anywhere. No one is forgetting anything, but Obama is gone, and his actions in office will be scrutinized and judged for years to come... in the same way some of Clinton’s polices on crime are coming home to roost now. We’re talking about the present climate and the future possibility of…

Maybe Obama shouldn’t have drawn a red line with Syria that he had no interest in honoring, and then turning his back while hundreds of thousands were murdered and millions more fled as refugees

Pathetic. Typical weepy conservative. All emotion, no critical thinking.

Thank you for your service, unnecessary as it was. Glad you made it home.

The Status of Forces agreement that required most of the ground troops out of Iraq was signed under George W. Bush.

Your post is pointless. You know damn well racist, idiot trumpeters never let the facts get in the way...

No, he didn’t. He reiterated what has been an international standard since at least the Geneva Protocol in 1928. Then he made the WISE move not to get into a clusterfuck of a full scale war in Syria. This crisis happened because of the foolish destabilizing war in Iraq. Make no fuckin’ mistake about it.

I don’t suffer fools well.

really embraced drone strikes, and that is unfortunate. Everyone has blood on their hands.
