Collapsing-Obama-Doctrine
On a trip to the Middle East this spring, we heard a constant refrain in capitals from the Persian Gulf to Israel, "Can you please explain what your president is doing?" "Why is he walking away?" "Why is he so blithely sacrificing the hard fought gains you secured in Iraq?" "Why is he abandoning your friends?" "Why is he doing deals with your enemies?"
By DICK CHENEY And LIZ CHENEY, for the Wall Street Journal
Rarely has a U.S. president been so wrong about so much at the expense of so many. Too many times to count, Mr. Obama has told us he is "ending" the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan—as though wishing made it so.
His rhetoric has now come crashing into reality. Watching the black-clad ISIS jihadists take territory once secured by American blood is final proof, if any were needed, that America's enemies are not "decimated." They are emboldened and on the march.
The fall of the Iraqi cities of Fallujah, Tikrit, Mosul and Tel Afar, and the establishment of terrorist safe havens across a large swath of the Arab world, present a strategic threat to the security of the United States. Mr. Obama's actions—before and after ISIS's recent advances in Iraq—have the effect of increasing that threat.

What difference does it make
Note the church bell.
This Christian church in Mosul did not pay “Jizya” tax and so ISIS members scaled the spire and removed the Cross which had sat there for decades and replaced it with an ISIS flag.

We're Building....
We’re leaving behind a sovereign, stable, and
self-reliant Iraq
with a representative government that was elected by its people. We’re building
a new partnership between our nations. And we are ending a war, not with a
final battle, but with a final march toward home. This is an extraordinary
achievement, nearly nine years in the making.
Obama fled Iraq - and the terrorists moved in
Barack Obama pulled out the last US
forces in Iraq
in December 2011 and declared the war had been won:

UKRAINE has failed to reach a breakthrough with
Moscow in talks to avert a Russian gas cut that would hit Europe and add
further urgency to the worst East-West crisis since the Cold War.

The US failure wasn’t going into Iraq but leaving it

This is an issue of national security of the United States in the Middle East. What we’re seeing now, al Qaeda has control of the largest city it has ever controlled in its history. It has control of the largest area of territory—from the outskirts of Aleppo in the west to Mosul in the east—than it ever has in its history.
This is an enormous threat and it is a direct result of the two decisions that Obama made. Leaving Iraq, he says he ended the war in Iraq. No. David Petraeus ended the war in Iraq. He defeated al Qaeda and ended the civil war. Obama threw away the fruits of victory as General [Buck] McKeon said when he did not negotiate a status of forces agreement, which he argues in Afghanistan is necessary as a way to retain our gains and to redeem our sacrifices…
At the same time, you have an attack on Karachi, the largest city in Pakistan, an attack on the airport. You’ve got—and that is a country with nuclear weapons. The al Qaeda is arguably now the strongest it has ever been and it’s a result of Obama’s policies.
