Everyone warned him. His top Military commanders, his top experts EVERYONE. You pull out of Iraq without an exit strategy or leaving behind support forces were going to have a real problem.

When President Bush was in office at the end of his term there was between 500-800 fighters left.

Now that Barry has taken command there are 12,000 in Iraq alone! They are capturing key cities in Iraq. Good move Barry, give them their own F'ing state.

Then there's northern Mali which they now control and we sit back and watch. THEN there is Syria which they are gaining control in parts there to.

We all know what's gonna happen when we pull out of Afghanistan, their government is going to fall and Al Qaeda will also control if not the whole country at least a good part of it. All the while he reduces the size of our military.

Way to go Barry! Giving our most dangerous enemy several countries. F'ing coward. No wonder a record number of Admiral's, Generals and senior military officers, CIA officers and Federal Law Enforcement Officers have resigned under his watch.

Marine veteran Rep. Duncan Hunter said on “The Kelly File” Tuesday that new revelations by former Defense Secretary Robert Gates and troubling developments on the ground in Iraq are evidence President Obama has abandoned what the military is fighting for in the Middle East.

Hunter, who served in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, told Fox News’ Megyn Kelly he is outraged over the Al Qaeda takeover of the Iraqi city of Fallujah last week, which threatens to undo gains made by American troops before the withdrawal in 2011.

“What I see here is a political squandering of military victories and an abandonment by this administration of everything we did in Iraq,” Hunter, R-Calif., said.

Hunter said he is “not surprised” that Obama, according to Gates, appeared to doubt his own strategy in Afghanistan to the point of being “outright convinced it would fail.” He said he believes Obama abandoned the War in Iraq for “purely political reasons.”

“What this president did was abandon everything that we fought for because Iraq could not sustain itself without some American involvement,” he said.

This man was Special Forces who fought in both Iraq and Afghanistan, he knows what he is talking about.

Not the former Secretary of Defense under Obama is saying the same thing.
