The Iraq War ended in 2011 when the last US combat brigade shipped out.
I dunno what RW dad is thinking here, if he thought the end of a war means rainbows and ice cream. After the war, most rational people knew there'd be hell to pay, and so began the Iraqi Insurgency, which has now evolved into the Iraqi Civil War.
We told you flag-waving chickenhawks that the Neocon invasion in 2003would massively destabilize the Middle East. Sure enough, it has -- perhaps irrevocably.
And here's RWD, thinking he's scoring points with word games, not only missing the big picture, but taking no accountability for it.
I can't be bothered to watch whatever this lying propaganda is.
"Besides arguing that Iraq was not the top strategic priority in the war on terrorism or in the Middle East, critics of the [2003 Iraq} war also suggested that it could potentially destabilize the surrounding region. Prominent among such critics was Brent Scowcroft, who served as National Security Advisor to George H. W. Bush. In a 15 August 2002 Wall Street Journal editorial entitled "Don't attack Saddam", Scowcroft wrote that, "Possibly the most dire consequences would be the effect in the region ... there would be an explosion of outrage against us ... the results could well destabilize Arab regimes", and, "could even swell the ranks of the terrorists."[251] In an October 2015 CNN interview with Fareed Zakaria, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair apologized for his 'mistakes' over Iraq War and admitted there were 'elements of truth' to the view that the invasion helped promote the rise of ISIS."

The top brass at the Pentagon also argued that Team USA didn't have a clear "exit strategy" from Iraq, but Donald Rumsfeld lied, lied and lied again that US troops would be greeted with rose-petal tossing Iraqi's who would view US troops as their "saviors." Gee whiz. Isn't it amazing how things didn't turn out that way? Why, no, no it's not amazing at all.
That's not even getting into the proven FACTS that from GW Bush on down through most of his Admin, including Colin Powell, all LIED about WMD, amongst other issues, that were used as the "reasons" for why Team USA "needed to" invade Iraq and dispose of Saddam, who until recently, had been BFFs with the Bush Crime Syndicate who provided him with many weapons (but not chemical weapons).
If this phony baloney thing is blaming Obama (as Obama must be blamed for everything bc he's blackity black black BLACK!!11) for the mess in MENA?? Well, sure Obama has *some* of the blame for more recent events, such as Libya, but certainly not for all of it.
RWD loves him some rewritten history that conveniently fits his nasty assed little bogus narratives running through his heavily brainwashed pea brain.
Like most people, I get all of my important news from other people's Facebook pages.
Sadly, CharlieE, Facebook is where too many people get their nooz.
The big question is whether Facebook is better/more accurate or worse/even more of a lie than Fox. A tough question!
FOX is an actively divisive propaganda arm of the multi-billionaires.
I'd say they're much, much worse and have done the U.S. great harm in the 19 years they've been active.
Fox is the worst but I lump all cable news networks in the blame for the sorry state of misinformation. They play on the fact that most people are naturally lazy and won't validate anything they say and just agree with what fits their learned biases.
