Bannas I supported Bush Sr. driving Saddam out of Kuwait
I also supported him not pushing on to Baghdad . . . that was an act of statesmanship by a man with a savvy strategic sense of the times
Bush the younger was, on the other hand, an inadequate, biddable mess
Obama to his credit patched things up and held it together as best he could
but he couldn't resist the Clintonite pressure and got dragged into no-win Libya
and so we are here . . . and we have Trump
damn, this is depressing

I agree with you. I hope Trump does not open up Pandora’s box with an overreach. With Iran and Russia vested knee deep, could make Iraq look like a cake walk.

I believe Trump is being set-up, pushed and egged on by the anti Iranian lobby in the USA and in the Arab world.

This war was winding down, now its racheting up again!
