OMG you can not understand such simple things? Trump was one of the few against starting Iraq war. He is proven correct in spades. Trillions of dollars borrowed from China, hundreds of our brave soldiers killed, thousand disabled.
Now in 2015 we find ISIS with capture of most of northern Iraqi oil fields. That is 80% of their money resource. We take that away from them, ISIS becomes weak.
So basically, we need to invade Iraq again.
That strategy is exactly how ISIS ended up with billions in US military equipment in the first place.
Now we’re in a bizarre situation where even though ISIS is said to be a uniquely terrible enemy, we support none of the forces that are actually being effective at fighting them - Assad loyalists, Kurds, and Iranians - while at the same time we support those fighting the ones who are making headway against ISIS.
We have no business getting involved in that mess, but if we must, the only sensible way to go is to arm the Kurds to the teeth and otherwise get the hell out. The Kurds are the only faction in the entire region which isn’t either an open enemy or constantly stabbing us in the back.
