No people anywhere deserve what's happened to the innocent Iraqi people.
Mission accomplished for Bush 41 & 43, and the global 'financiers', oil companies and defense industries backing (fronting?) them. They're the ones benefiting most from the destruction of Iraq. And Libya.
And Trump brought neo-cons Bolton (fortunately gone) and Pompeo, two of the Iraq War architects, to run foreign affairs

And out of the ashes and void left from Saddam Hussein's Iraq sprang the fanatical evil genocidal ISIL. that made things even worse for everyone there! Thanks Dumbya for nothing. You have a lot to answer for because of the lies you said.

Yup. And all the morons cheering on Trump previously cheered on W and his disastrous wars.

Tell us, Madverts, which is the better choice for president - Trump, who wasn't for the Iraq war and hasn't got us into any new wars but has started pulling troops out of Syria and Afghanistan and is meeting with the North Koreans, or Biden who actually voted for the Iraq war?

A population upwards of 300 million to choose from, and it always comes down to the lesser (or not) of two evils?

So the south of Iraq is hinting they might be happy to join Iran? Not a bad place from which to fire ‘Houti’ drones and missiles at Saudi Arabia then.
