I see no difference between neutron bombs, tactical nukes, remote controlled drone attacks, or direct bombing by aircraft. If anyone thinks there is such a thing as a good bomb, then please explain it.
The only difference between War & Peace is where you place your bombs. -- US General Curtis LeMay


(For the history challenged Lemay was the guy who developed the successful bombing strategy of Japan durin WWII, and who ran SAC during the cold war.)

Bullshtein.
It was created out of hatred for America and anyone else who is not Islam.
They were after us for a long time before Bush. I don't care what stupid catch name they go by these days.
Has nothing to do with who is president but has to do with which president comes up with best plan of attack to stop these aholes.

After the dust settled Iraq made a deal with China for the oil.

Yep, Rumsfeld at his finest. And Dick (We will be greeted as liberators) Cheney told Bush all he needed to know about Iraq (which was about as much as I just typed)

All the other Republicans lined up like ducks in a shooting gallery, and 10 years later……Voila!

We have ISIS.

Amen.

The people responsible for the attack are the ones that planned it and carried it out. No one else. Certainly no american president of any party.

You cannot continue to blame Bush for all of your messiah's foreign policy failures.

If Barack Obama ever had a strategy for Syria, it's been turned on its head

Sure we can, just like we can blame Obama for failing to clean them up but it still goes without saying that this was an entirely avoidable issue - regardless of your support material above.

The biggest error of the BushII Invasion of Iraq was to ignore hundreds of years of Sunni-Shia conflict. The idiot from Crawford didnt think that installing a Shia government in Iraq would be a problem, so when Maliki started killing and persecuting the Sunnis, Bush was the only one surprised. Then, Maliki immediately made an agreement with Iran to fight the Sunnis in northern Iraq, essentially putting remaining US forces under command of an Iranian general, and th US went along with this craziness to make it appear that everything in IRaq was just fine. All of Saddams former military was Sunni like Saddam, and they quickly organized into ISIS and made plans to restablish a Sunni dominated caliphate like they had in the region centuiries ago.

It doesn't matter if one of the attackers came from Syria. There is no time line on how long he could have been training in that country or Iraq. Either way, the brain trust of ISIS formed in an American run prison outside of Baghdad shortly after the invasion of Iraq.

Yes, Republicans are directly responsible for ISIS. Your boy Bush (who you voted for twice) is the one who created the conditions for their beginning.
Actually you Democrats and Obama are solely responsible for ISIS. Nice projection though.
