France is fed up with Trump's 'repeated attacks' to weaken Europe

I frickin hate Bush and his stupid wars BUT we were finally making great progress and Obama pulled out too soon and left billions of weapons with the IGF. This is common knowledge. Yeah we have ground troops in Iraq. They are there to train Iraqis and protect our bases. There are very few well trained Iraqis. The rest dropped their weapons and scattered. Are you really going to argue any of these points?

Syria is a different ball of shit. We probably should not have ever got involved there, but we did. Nobody knows who those rebels are, yet we armed them to the teeth. Obama drew a line in the sand and didnt even blink when it was crossed (Great display of weakness toward an enemy that only respects an iron fist.) Once Russia was invited into the fight by Assad we had only one choice. Well two if you consider taking on Russia in an air war a reasonable decision. But he took the third option, act like a weakling again and just continue arming the rebels (we dont know who they are.) Yes we have special ops on the ground training these rebels to fight. Thats not considered boots on the ground as they arent going on missions or even leading the way in battle.

Obama fought these wars like only a politician would. He puts rules of engagement on our troops so our special ops are more afraid of going to prison than getting killed. He shows zero balls and doesnt want to win. He made pinprick offensives against a rapidly growing force. He specifically called ISIS the JV team back when we could have stomped them out easily and had full support of the locals. He was a coward and he surely didnt show concern for the men he sends into harms way.
