As opposed to allowing ISIS to swallow the Middle East and the World's Oil Supply.
You're right, I cannot see how that could ever be a problem. Especially with Israel, Pakistan, Turkey and possibly Iran all having nuclear weapons.
I'm shocked Obama hasn't found a job for you, it seems you see eye to eye.
Who cares about who controls the oil supply. I don't.
Whomever has the oil has to either sell it or drink it. And I don't particularly care where my oil comes from as long as my engine starts.
As for nukes...not our problem. It ain't like those nukes threaten this country.

Now 12 years later those folks get to face beheadings of children, sex slavery, etc. And America just throws up its hands and says, 'oh well, time to walk away.'
No, abdicating responsibility means that we had some responsibility in the first place.
We don't. We're out. It's over. Come to terms with it.
Sure, 70% of Americans were dumb back in 2003 (and that number ain't much lower now, lemme tell ya), but that was then...this is now.
The only strategy we should have is to stay as far from the conflict as we can and let the people of the region shoot it out and settle it among themselves.
Oh, then you approved of "stay as far from the conflict..." and that way ISIS and the terrorists can then build up to come here to America and bring their filthy cutting off heads and all the rest right here?
Apparently knowing the Middle East and just world history in general, the only way to stop this terrorism takeover is to go in and wipe ISIS out...as so many of our intelligent military have advised and know we can do in 3 or 4 weeks...then allow the "true" Muslims to build slowly back to learning how to take control and maintain the confidence to stay in control after centuries of living in fear. That can be done, but not if we have the very childish attitude of "let those people shoot it out and settle it among themselves.
Remember, ISIS are cowards. They hide behind women and children. The good Muslims they are fighting have never lived except in fear of their lives under dictators who are unbelievably cruel and control by that fear as did Saddam Hussain and other ilk the Iran Ayatollas. If fear is bred and experienced for centuries, it takes time and great help to overcome which can be done and will then let these Muslims achieve good countries and good life if the strength of America is there to help them...but that will not happen as long as they are afraid America will abandon them at the will of some idiot U.S. President at a whim of political wind.
And people think they are getting news from Bill O'Reilly or Rachel Maddow ?
Oh, yeah...
Judicial Watch.
The group that back in Sept claimed that ISIS was active in Juarez Mexico and ready to launch attacks in the US at any time.
The group that in April claimed that ISIS had a training camp built up just outside the border near Anapra, NM and was readying terrorists right under the noses of Mexican and US authorities, who were ignoring the threat.

Yep..
I've heard of those bozos. They like to cry wolf.
But it's on the Internet and supports my preconceived ignorant biases! It must be true!

The DoD document is in the link. You are fooling yourself to deny it.
