“I feel we pulled out of our commitments too early under Obama. That was a painful day when I saw that last tank leave Iraq. We had Al Qaeda and the insurgent groups in Iraq—we had them beaten. But instead, we created fertile ground for ISIS to regroup.
Will Byrnes
Did this vet not know that the treaty mandating US withdrawal from Iraq was negotiated and signed by the Bush administration? Did he also not know that one of the major reasons for the rise of ISIS was the abandonment of Iraqi military personnel under that same president? Out of work, and well-armed, ex-soldiers became a major source of anti-government terrorism, which evolved into ISIS. Yet blames Obama. Typical.
