Heartbreaking and worrisome? This is a sick joke, right?
What we knew before Bush and his bosses Rumsfeld and Cheney decided to democratize Iraq in 2003, was that Iraq, and most of the Islamic middle east for that matter, has a history of at least 15 centuries of tribal and Islamic sectarian murder and mayhem. But were they gonna pay any attention? Nope...they had a Presidential legacy to establish after 9/11, and an imperial presidency to develop.
But Obama derangement syndrome is so much easier and more fun.
The Jews of Israel know how to handle this. It's this country that doesn't know what the fuck it's doing. And IMO it's not as much a problem with radical sects as it is with mainstream Muslims who won't speak up. When you leave your balls in your other pants, the sociopaths will take over. It took WWII for the Germans to learn the same lesson. Like Tonio K says, "They put Hitler in the driver's seat and looked the other way." So they'll put ISIS, Hamas and Hezbollah in the driver's seat, and blame it all on the Jews.
