What created ISIS is the deep state. Same as what created al qaeda. ISIS is an American/Israeli proxy.
Now, please. Stop being a racist.

Chat GPT: President Obama decided to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq to fulfill a campaign promise and because he believed the situation in Iraq was stable enough to allow for a complete withdrawal (Obama's decision.... and it was WRONG)... The final troop withdrawal was completed by December 2011, marking the end of the U.S. combat mission in Iraq.
Do YOU just MAKE this **** UP as you go? OR, are you listening to OTHER idiots who know MORE than YOU DO !
@CannonpointerMostly true. The expiration of the 2008 SOFA and the failure to secure legal immunities for U.S. personnel were major reasons the U.S. withdrew all troops by the end of 2011. While the Obama administration did argue that Iraq had made substantial progress, the withdrawal was not based purely on a belief that Iraq was fully capable of securing itself independently.
In July, 2008, Obama wrote an opinion piece in the NYT that essentially obliged Scrub to provide a time line for withdrawal.Cannonpointer » 24 Jun 2026, 2:18 pm » wrote: ↑ Bush signed the SOFA that obligated Obama to pull out when he did - and he did not pull out one minute early.

The SIMPLE FACT is that Trump has been RIGHT, about ALMOST EVERYTHING... FROM DAY 1 !
AND he STILL IS TODAY!
While Democrats and the Democrat Party are FALLING APART...
1) CAUGHT in MASSIVE ECONOMIC FRAUD, in NUMEROUS STATES, WHILE STEALING from the American Taxpayers !
2) CAUGHT in NUMEROUS examples of VOTER FRAUD, and STILL fighting to KEEP ANY ATTEMPTS to ASSURE "Election Integrity" from being implemented... EFFORTS that are supported by 83% of the American public... WHICH COMMON SENSE would dictate PROVES THEIR GUILT !!
3) CAUGHT DENYING the BORDERS were EVER "open" (and America WANTED RESOLVED) while VIDEOS of MILLIONS of ILLEGALS FORCING their way into America were EVERYWHERE !!
4) CAUGHT RIOTING against ICE, and doing everything possible to KEEP ICE from doing it's JOB... so ILLEGALS COULD NOT be deported !!
5) SELF Admitted and Demonstrated Marxists, Socialists, COMMUNISTS, RAPISTS, LIARS and THIEVES being elected by the Democrat MACHINE... while MUCH of the party DO NOT support the LURCH to the LEFT... and are now LEAVING the Democrat Party is DROVES !!
ALL that and MUCH, MUCH more...

None of your happy Iranians are dancing in the streets anymore loser. Iranians are cookoo nutjobs again. Two weeks ago they were smart negotiators.
Ceasfire off. Deal not gonna happen. Forever War... Iran, the obliterated miitary force is hitting ships.
All this war shyt costs money. It will bankrupt us and do nothing for us.
How many times have the pedo say their military was obliterated now?ConservativeWave » Today, 11:14 am » wrote: ↑ Hmmmm... YOU are SO STUPID !
Let me just say, Iran doesn't have an effective military any longer... maybe they can dig out and salvage a few missiles here & there, but THAT will not win them anything. TRUMP is TRYING to give them an out, but they DON'T want to take it... Well OK ! So, Trump finishes the job, and: 1) Destroy dozens of key bridges, 2) Dozens of key Power Plants, 3) Their Oil processing capability, 4) ALL the other targets that would cripple the Islamist's that U.S. intelligence folks have accumulated over the last couple months, and 5) Actually start to TAKE OUT the IRGC rank & file, as WELL as their leadership ?

President Obama’s withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq by the end of 2011 was largely driven by the expiration of a 2008 security agreement and the failure to secure legal immunities for U.S. personnel, rather than purely on the belief that the country was entirely self-sufficient.
Chat GPT:Yes. That statement is broadly accurate, though the phrase "largely driven" simplifies a decision that involved both legal and political factors.Here's the historical context:Regarding whether Obama believed Iraq was fully self-sufficient:
- In 2008, the administration of George W. Bush negotiated a U.S.–Iraq Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) with the Iraqi government. The agreement required U.S. combat forces to leave Iraqi cities by mid-2009 and all U.S. forces to withdraw by December 31, 2011.
- After Barack Obama took office, his administration explored the possibility of keeping a residual U.S. force in Iraq beyond 2011.
- A key obstacle was legal immunity. The United States insisted that any troops remaining would need protections from Iraqi criminal jurisdiction. Iraqi political leaders were unwilling or unable to secure parliamentary approval for such immunities.
- Without a new agreement providing those legal protections, the Obama administration concluded that keeping troops in Iraq was not feasible, and the withdrawal proceeded on schedule at the end of 2011.
So, if you were evaluating the statement for accuracy, a fair assessment would be:
- Obama and senior officials did express optimism that Iraqi security forces had become more capable and that Iraq had made significant progress.
- However, the administration did not base the withdrawal solely on the belief that Iraq was completely self-sufficient. Officials generally acknowledged that Iraq still faced security and political challenges.
- The inability to negotiate a follow-on agreement—including troop immunities—was widely recognized by participants and historians as a decisive factor in why no residual U.S. force remained after 2011.

ISIS Timeline:
Obama Administration (2009–2017)Trump Administration (2017–2021)
- U.S. withdrawal completed in December 2011. ***
- ISIS expands dramatically during 2013–2014.
- Mosul falls in June 2014.
- U.S.-led coalition air campaign begins August 2014.
- Basically NOTHING else happened thru 2016
SO, In a NUTSHELL:
- Trump was sworn in as POTUS in January 2017.
- Mosul liberated July 2017.
- Iraq declares ISIS territorially defeated in December 2017.
- Final ISIS territorial holdings in Syria eliminated in 2019.
- Obama with-drew U.S. Forces in Dec. 2011, ISIS invaded Iraq in 2013-14, Obama didn't do much else thru 2016...
- Trump won the 2016 Pres. Election, THEN came in and WENT AFTER ISIS in 2017, Liberated Mosul in 2017, and Iraq declared victory in 2017... THEN, ISIS was defeated in Syria by 2019 !
SO, in a nutshell... it doesn't take a ROCKET Scientist to see WHAT HAPPENED. Obama STARTED it, and TRUMP FINISHED it !!
A BLIND man ca see it !!
