The Rape of Iraq

I think it was General Colin Powell that said, if we broke it, we own it. About Iraq, in my opinion, he has been proven right.
     Jeb Bush's mixed up answer to a news caster's question set off a storm of political protest this week on that sorry excuse for a country - Iraq. First observation I draw is this: it is the cradle of civilization, some experts have told us.  most history professors will say that man crawled out of the dust bin of Iraq and developed into the dust bowl that it is today - a quagmire of tribal petty squabbles, unable to defend itself, caught in the perfect 13th century society. How do you throw out the anchor of progress and wallow in camel dung for 1000 years while man walks on the moon?
    Add WWI and WWII together and we've still been in Iraq longer, spilled American blood trying to help for people who, evidently have not the where with all to stand on there own two feet and fight for their own existence. Our army has trained up their "mighty Republican Guard" twice now, and in the face of ISIS bad guys, they throw down their weapons and run away.
Our veterans are mad, and I don't blame them - sacrifice for NOTHING. All for a quick political promise.
    The results are, just in the last 4 days, slaughter of innocent women and babies on a scale that would make the Camp Commanders of Sobibor and Dachau jealous. We have lost every major city in Iraq (after we liberated it, won the war, and handed it over to the Iraqi government) and watched the bloodthirsty ISIS fighters take them back and murder innocent women and kids there in the most vicious ways.
     Meanwhile, what does our golfer in chief do?
     Nothing.
