Stop Misleading Us

The news media persists in its characterization of the Obama Administration's terrorist hunt in Iraq as
Obama putting us back in Iraq.
The U.S. threatened the government of Iraq by waging the Gulf War, by Clinton's promise to send
troops to Iraq if that country didn't properly disclose its type and quantity of weapons stores, and by
the Bush-Cheney inauguration of the Iraq War after planes flew into American buildings via Mid East terror.
In no way has the Obama Administration threatened or waged any war against Iraq, the country, Iraq,
the people, or Iraq, the autonomous state.
To constantly equate ISIS with Iraq is silly because ISIS won't even claim a national identity.
They have termed themselves a stateless regional caliphate.
President Obama is dampening the spread of terrorism because that's his job.
He isn't watering down the spread of Iraq, or the  Iraqi government.
ISIS is one of the reasons the President couldn't afford to arm any Syrian rebels. We couldn't afford
any group to lose weapons to ISIS.
Even now that ISIS is a threat, not the U.S.- to the government of Iraq, I worry about a plane or a drone going down not only because pilots are a precious resource, but because the possibility of ISIS getting its hands on the technology in those machines is a nightmare.
I know the U.S. doesn't want Maliki as the top government official in Iraq.
However, we are in no way going to overtly remove him from office, even if we owe it to the people
who helped us during the ill-conceived war in Iraq to rescue them the genocide the mountaintop
will bring them.
I am so glad they aren't in New Orleans with levies being breached by hurricanes.
And I am so glad President Obama is at the helm for them without "Brownie".
