They really cant do shit.

Y'know, other than kill American soldiers for an obvious act of war.
You'd better believe I'm a bitter Bernie Sanders supporter. The Dems fucked up and fucked up hard. Hopefully they'll learn that neoliberalism and maintaining the status quo isn't the way to win this election or any other one. I doubt they will, though.

With ISIS it may work but the rest it won't

It didn't work with Al-Qaeda, it just creates splintering. Instead of a $500,000 bomb being dropped, it'd be better to build $500,000 worth of schools and housing.

Not necessarily. Trump has had plenty of chances to charge, but the lack of an enthusiastic crowd is fucking him over, as well as Clinton for a bit, but she knows how to conduct herself without worrying about the crowds. Trump needs them.

Not giving a damn about the "intelligence" of political think-tank officials, given where we've gone in ten years.

Intelligence officials gather the intelligence, it's up to politicians to decide what to do with them and sometimes it gets manipulated.

We should not have done so and impressed upon them that doing so would mean we have no faith in their governments survival and will use scorched earth tactics to prevent the resources falling into the hands of a group of totalitarians that would be the inevitable result.
We needed to occupy them for a decade or so to stabilize the area.

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

Trump's primary tactic is to excrete dollops of bullshit left and right.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.

What about Bush?
We pulled out due to Congressional pressure and a refusal of Iraq to extend immunity to troops. Bush (and the entire Republican party, except Ron Paul basically) predicted the same thing. That Iraq would descend into fuckery if we pulled out.
This was, if you recall, what was behind McCain's rather famous 'we may have to stay there for a hundred years' comment/rhetoric on the topic.
I'm General Patton.
Even those who are gone are with us as we go on.

Been busy lately--not around much.

Wouldn't have mattered. Public would have hated him if we stayed because of the war exhaustion, they would have hated him if he pulled out because of the collapse.
