Posted by moy23 on 11/18/2014 12:50:00 PM (view original):Aa a side note - The interesting thing about Iraq was, like it or not, it centralized the war on terror. The old 'the best defense is a good offense'. Take it to terrorists in Iraq and keep them playing defense rather than planning offense. What was happening there was terrorist groups would flood into Iraq to fight, thus we could centralize our army. Now with no presence there they have set up base in Iraq (and Syria) while planning, recruiting, and spreading 'their cause' into other countries as the study suggests. Just take a look at the terrorist recruitment #s over the last year or so and the # of related incidents like Canada, Australia, UK, etc... The other side is gaining momentum since Obama left Iraq to the JV team, and failed to do anything in Syria when he drew his infamous line in the sand. When asked is america better off today from terrorism, than they were 6 years ago... I think I know the popular answer.

Are you implying that Barry's "We'll all gather 'round the campfire and sing songs" foreign policy seems to be lacking?
