ISIS exists regardless of US action. That ISIS exists in Iraq might be a result of US actions.

Tautologicus posted:the US is geographically isolated. oceans on both sides. an ally to the north, and a quasi third world country to the south. the same kind of situation isn't possible here. some president or another said our struggles would happen from the inside and that's probably true. Abe Lincoln posted:Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step the ocean and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia, and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest, with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio or make a track on the Blue Ridge in a trial of a thousand years. At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer. If it ever reach us it must spring up amongst us; it cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen we must live forever, or die by suicide.

The dems could have known but they didn't care. There were certainly dems on the intelligence committees. e: things run smoother politically if nobody can summon the courage to ask difficult questions.

In that power vacuum that was created from that war that had significant republican support and about 1/3rd democrat support a thing is festering. What should be done about that thing? Abandon Israel and the Gulf. Cut all military aid to kings and juntas worldwide.

Jst0rm posted:I shouldnt mix everyone up. Some people seemed very critical of the democrats as if they shared equal responsibility for going to war. I think that is factually false and was interested in getting into the thought process that gets people to think that way. Dems held the Senate in 2003 and Dem votes caused the war.

Jst0rm posted:I guess we just arent going to agree on this point. It will take historians in 300 years to find the real truth. I think we all have lived it too close to really come to any conclusions on it. historians 300 years into the future will agree that there was almost no difference between the two parties and that the 2003 Iraq War was a totally unsurprising product of the military industrial complex and oil interests.

Religion is specifically a tool in the middle east because it is the only form of social organization with any sort of legitimacy after the collapse of pan-arab nationalism in the aftermath of the 1967 war. Additionally, Islamism is as of yet, the only that has ideology that has proven capable of successfully overthrowing a western backed government in the region.
