But they certainly love to attempt to shift the blame to everyone else in the world.
Amazing how the ME seems to fall in line with BLM.

Here in NC's last senate race Tom Tillis and Kay Hagan crushed each other over foreign policy and isis when both of the plans listed on their website was to fund Syrian "moderates." When McCain came to campaign for Tillis he bashed the president, who it just so happens was also for funding the Syrian "moderates."

Truth is most on both sides are to blame, and the crazy thing is that they blame each other when they were on the same side.

ISIS splintered off of Al Queda in Iraq over a dispute on policy. Many of the members were from Saddam's Bathist military, who needed new employment after the invasion by Bush/Clinton/essentially everyone except again Paul and Sanders. The other members of course, came from the moderates mentioned above, and various terror networks, unemployed fringe extremists, etc.
