Obama has allowed what is happening in Iraq to happen because of his 1983 "Breaking the War Mentality" mentality and agenda. Obama could have negotiated a "Status of Force" agreement with Maliki himself but couldn't get his hands dirty and go against his liberal base. Does anyone remember Bush negotiated the SOF force agreement with Iraqi President Jalal Talabani in 2007 when the withdrawal was first announced? Bush's SOF agreement was scheduled to expire in 2013. and it was Obama's responsibility to renegotiate another one leaving some troops behind or let the 2007 agreement expire and pull all troops out except for the Marines guarding the embassy. Well Obama couldn't bring himself to leave any troops behind to make sure what is happening now wouldn't happen. He blamed Maliki for not having a SOF agreement in place because Maliki wouldn't agree to American soldier immunity in the case of accidental civilian deaths. Of course Obama didn't go himself he sent his state department buffoons to negotiate the SOF agreement. Had Obozo gone himself there might have been a different outcome. No he wanted all troops out. And grinned like a Cheshire Cat that Maliki wouldn't go along with the limited immunity of our troops. So flash forward to January 2014. Battle hardened ISIS terrorists are streaming across the boarder from Syria. Makiki is begging Obama for airstrikes to slow down the ISIS blitzkrieg and Obama denies the strikes calling the battle hardened extremist Islamic ISIS barbarians "JV". Well 8 months later the "JV" controls 1/3 of Iraq. They are threatening to obliterate thousands of Iraqi Christians now holed up in the mountains outside Mosul. They have raided $3 billion from Iraqi banks in captured cities (how much of that is American money?). They are threatening the Kurds who next to Israel are probably our biggest alies in the region, even larger than Turkey who are in NATO. They are within 50 miles of Baghdad. So what does Obozo do? He allows airstrikes 8 months too late and instead of ordering 100 to 200 per day he's allowed less than 10 in a week. Oh they took out a truck and an artillery piece. Big whoop there Barry. You're not at Columbia smooshing up to Ayers and Dohrn and planning how the Cloward and Piven doctrine could be implemented any more there Barry. The ISIS "JV",Vlad Puten, Syria's Assad, Iranian President Hassan Rowhani and before him Ahmadinejad, heck even the Lilliputian that is Kim Sung Un are all making you look like the "B team" president you are.
