You wish to remain blind? Good for you. You must love the swamp.

It took obama to get Bin Laden (admittedly from Bush’s data).
Destroying Iraq and Saddam Hussein destabilize the Middle East much as obama destroying Libya and Muammar Gaddafi destabilized North Africa.
Both helping to create ISIS.

And insults from self delusional globalists are easy for me to slough off. Though I do get a laugh out of them.

The mess Obama set in motion is starting to spread.

The bushes blew up the middle east. Most of the credit for creating the mess we have today goes to W.

Such young fools.....

Do you even know how many times Obama tried to stop DOD and the Agency from even trying to kill OBL. Read your history!!

The operation that found OBL was planned and executed without his knowledge.

He only went ahead with it, after delaying it and over the strenuous objections of Hillary and Biden, when some at the Agency not too subtly suggested that if Obama did not green-light the attempt, it would go public that he had refused.

Stop trying to tell anyone here that Obama is anything other than an America-hater.

I’ve not going to debate W’s stupidity, all I’ll say is that W destabilized the entire Middle East by invading Iraq and taking out Saddam. And just to show how dumb W was he did that with to few troops to occupy a not really conquered Iraq. Even thou his top general (whom W fired) told him he did not have enough troops to successfully occupy Iraq.

Evidently W really did believe the neocon lie that the Iraqis would throw rose petals at our feet.

A couple of troubling things in his report. The technology gap between the good guys and bad guys appears to be narrowing, not just in the middle east, but all over the world. This seems to coincide with the obama presidency. Iran is the main bad actor over in middle east and obama dumped billions in their laps. I see a common thread in this story.

A crash site Wounded pilot. Syrians claimed they damaged multiple planes according to radar data but didn't shot down any. It seems like one crashed right after limped back to Israel's airspace and the rest got back to base but there might be more wounded.

Such a cluster up there. It could have been anybody manning those AAA guns. Hezbolla (Lebanon), Syrian Army, Iranians or even Russians.

Bush seems to be your hero. I remember Bush...

Dallas Texas 2006, during war time, under Republican George Bush.

500,000 illegal aliens march on Dallas Texas pushing foreign flags in our faces and while making demands and threats. All while Bush celebrated Cinco De Mayo up in the White House...During war time.

Are you joking? Dubya was one of the worst presidents ever. His rule was a disaster for America. The Iraq war was idiotic and caused tremendous harm to our country.

What is there to know? Ya want to go back to Bush’s decades long, “Compassionate wars” which looted the national treasure of trillions while economically gang banging Middle America?

The only thing amazing here is really ignorant people continue to support that globalist AH.

Mattis ( the obvious drunk ) in his big strategic speech last month said the GWOT was over and it was time to fight legitimate governments.

I‘m thinking washington is going to continue supporting ISIS

Your right. Everything is George Bush’s fault.

Even your flat tire two years ago.

Both Bushes.
Sadam was a great deterrent against BOTH Sunni radicalism and Iran.
I might agree that someone might have not seen 9/11 coming in 1991 (although they should have seen it) but it was obvious that Iran would become a dominant force in the Middle East as Iraq weakened.
They are mad now at Syria becoming an Iranian puppet but what choice does it have? Should it succumb to Sunni radicals or what? Politic is an art of possible. You can’t have it the way you wish and it is true everywhere. You can’t blame others choosing lesser evil when you put them in such a position first.

Trading an F-16 for a drone isn’t a good swap.
