Obama launched 2,800 strikes on Iraq and Syria

Barack Obama launched more than 2,800 strikes on Iraq and Syria without congressional approval.

“The U.S. military has been conducting strikes in Iraq for 10 months, and began striking directly at targets in Syria last September as part of Mr. Obama’s announced campaign to degrade the capabilities of the Islamic State,” as reported in April 2015.

Bush, a conservative President STARTED that war, got thousands of USA soldiers killed. Was Obama to walk away from it?? Would EITHER the Democratic OR Conservative Congresses (or the Conservative Senate ;-), have approved THAT move?? By the time Obama took over it was as much, or MORE, a battle against ISIS …. formed (and payed for / armed ), by the Bush Admin. and their supporters. HE broke up the Iraqi Army, let them go WITH their AK's and anything else they could carry (in the vehicles they took with them)! And, let's not forget the PALLETTES of U.S. DOLLARS that he and the conservatives sent to the Baghdad Airport which …. disappeared! Hundreds of $millions! A nice "starter donation" for those needy ISIS people! THEN, he built the largest, most luxurious American Embassy there … which we must now defend.

If Trump had honored Obama's Nuclear Treaty with Iran, and continued negotiations, Iran would not be aligning themselves, more and more, with Russia, but the ….. Putin would like that so much, would he?? Trump launched many strikes against OUR allies, the Kurds … by proxy. Strikes Obama launched on Syria were against "The regime", not Syrians, HE tried to PROTECT the REAL Syrians, the people! Trump turned them over to Putin and Iran and Turkey!

A REAL President HAS to carry out what a previous President starts, like Bush's agreement to withdraw from Iraq on a certain date, or anything respecting an American agreement … like an important nuclear treaty. A POTUS does NOT have to respect what totalitarian leaders want him to do …. against the wishes of all of our allies … like an IMPOTUS does!

Obama launched 2,800 strikes against ISIS, a terrorist group created after the conservative Congress allowed Bush into a war IN Iraq, NOT "against Iraq and Syria". During his inauguration the conservatives met to assure that he would not succeed, and to vote against everything he tried to do! He HAD to do what he HAD to do without their consent … that he would NOT get! HE did as his military advisors advised in most cases. Trump does as Putin advises in most cases …. HE knows more than our Generals …. and is more "intelligent" than OUR "Intelligence Services" …. Putin TOLD him so!

Now, we sit and wonder where Iran will counterstrike …. maybe where Putin suggests??

The Crazy Democrat goes on an Insane Rant showing it's support for Iran. Democrat do you think the Muslims in Iran support your party's stance on the LGBTQ crowd.

Then the Crazy Democrat says a Conservative Congress created ISIS and it's insanity is again proven.

The deadly attack in the Istanbul airport late Tuesday, suspected to be the work of the ISIS, comes as the terrorist group today marks the second anniversary of the declaration of its Islamic “caliphate,” or kingdom.

In that time, the group has gone from obscurity, mocked by President Barack Obama as a terrorist “JV team,” to the world’s most brutal terrorist network, not only responsible for thousands of deaths in the Middle East but also linked to hundreds more in dozens of terrorist plots in the West.

ISIS currently controls thousands of square miles in Iraq and Syria, though the U.S. military says the group been pushed out of swaths of land, especially in Iraq, since a territorial high point in late summer 2014.

Did your Obama lie about ISIS there Democrat.

Bush, a conservative President STARTED that war, got thousands of USA soldiers killed.

Oh, but Bush was a Republican Alfie. That means the Chinaman ignores everything he does wrong. The Chinaman only attacks Democrats, and usually for stuff which is the Republicans' fault.

Why? The Chinaman is not a "Republican", he's a Trump Conservative …. THAT means "the Chinaman only attacks Democrats, and usually for stuff which is the Republicans' fault." (As above ;-). Republicans since Ike have been bad, (on a rising scale). With Bush they reached their pinnacle! The Trumpists took over from THERE … literally … and there seems to BE no pinnacle for THEM! The "Republican" agenda in 1956 looked exactly like a Democratic one in the years beyond! The Trump agenda is simple …. to be King, to have a few oligarchs surrounding him while he tells the working people he's doing great things. Like Putin. Elect him again and people WILL be being killed on Broadway and nobody will care …. or else! "Mother Russia" will become "Sister Russia"! If the Chinaman doesn't like democracy, he should go back to China …. and take other outlaws with him! ;-)

This past weekend’s attacks brought the total to 1,458 strikes in Iraq and 1,343 in Syria by U.S. forces. Coalition forces allied with the U.S. have conducted another 655 attacks on Iraqi targets and 95 in Syria.

Mr. Obama has justified the attacks under his commander in chief powers and under the 2001 resolution authorizing force against al Qaeda, and the 2002 resolution authorizing the ouster of Saddam Hussein in Iraq.

Some lawmakers on Capitol Hill have said Mr. Obama is stretching those laws and that the strikes could be illegal — though they say they want to put them on firm footing by passing a new authorization.

How could this be true? Are you saying that Democrats are two faced hypocritical fools who will deny reality itself to demonize Trump? OK, you of course are correct.

What amazes me is that after Obama received his Nobel Peace prize for his apology tour, his diplomacy, and supposedly bringing the nations of the world together, these Muslim nations did not become peaceful pacifists?

Why is it that Leftists never learn anything, and never fix anything, and will keep implementing the same failed policies over and over and over again?

Did Leftist skip school on the day they created the saying, fool me once shame on you, fool me a thousand times and I'm an idiot!

It takes strength to hold onto peace. Leftists most love wars!
