ISIS was created by the US going into Iraq, which had nothing to do with 911, obliterating the country and then in the midst of the chaos firing all of the former military who worked with and were trained by Iraq and then having our military leave the country. The man who made the decision to fire all of the Iraqi trained military was a novice to the region and knew nothing of nation building. The decision to pull our military out was a political decision made by Obama because of a campaign promise.
As a result the country was in chaos, electricity, water, and garbage were infrequent and who would you blame if you lived there? Of course the US was the culprit.
Killing ISIS is not the solution anymore than killing Saddam was, or killing Osama was, etc. We have been killing these terrorists non stop for 16 years, where has it gotten us?
