You still havent answered my question on this point: Ahhh I see we still use this talking point? How do you measure this? What does it mean to have "terrorism flourishing"? Whats the measure?
What?
So Obama? Obama? What?
You see. My whole thing is this:
1.)Why do we always measure "terror" ever since 9/11/2001? Why is this like the starting point for terror in America? We kinda forget that attack happened under a guy with an (R) next to his name, so we dont count that terrorist attack, which just so happens to be the largest terrorist attack in the nation.
2.) When you say "terrorism has been flourishing" as in its flourshing in the middle east, well this may be a news flash for you, but it has been flourishing in the middle east ever since 3/19/2003.
3.)I know as much as you want to blame this all on that stickin Obama and no one else, I dont take the such narrow minded, and hackish approach you do. See the honest thing about it, is its many factors dating all the way back to good ol daddy Reagan. We got selling arms to Iraq, then selling arms to Iran, providing intel to Saddam, then he started using chemical weapons against the Iranians and the Iranian Kurds (which at the time we were ok with until August 1990 when we decided, hey you cant steal the Kuwaiti oil! Thats ours!), then the whole debacle about WMDS, then the de-Baathification (what a great idea that was), then the occupation, then the installing a corrupt authoritarian sectarian puppet, then the whole civil war. Also dont forget that this whole time that many big players in the region had special interests in Iraq and Saddam being overthrown, some for genuine reasons, other for destabilization reasons.
