That has long been predicted by scholars of the ME. Biden was advised of the prediction by his election campaign managers. Biden doesn't have the knowledge of history that the true scholars have.F*** you Sarah Palin. Joe Biden was way ahead of you.

Besides, had Iraq been cleaved into three parts in 2006, those three parts would still be at each other's throats today. Cultures that believe in beheading others of their own religion simply because they do not promote the radical hatred of Mohammed will not respect any borders drawn around them nor any government save their own theocracy.
Had we treated postwar Iraq as we did Germany, Japan and South Korea (We STILL have troops in these countries...and their are great places to visit.)
Obama spoke the truth (simply because he was advised of it prior to his most recent press conference) in saying that no amount of US Military action will make that three sided problem go away forever. What we have now is a terrorist state...with access to significant weapons...no intelligence network AT ALL on the ground...ISIS on the march...
...at least they're wearing uniforms.
This is not a drill! We are really in a serious situation...a lot more important than who wins the World Cup.
Bush fucked up Iraq as we know it today. If he had only minded our own business we would not be in the mess we are now.
You don't have a clue what you are talking about. This is not about the war in Iraq. Not a bloody thing to do with disenfranchised Sunni voters. And it has nothing to do with Bush you fool.
It is about a Sunni terrorist army AQ offshoot that makes AQ look like they are delivering Girl Scout cookies who want to take over the ME.
Send this info on to Joe so he knows that ISIS is not an Egyptian goddess but a terrorist mm'kay?
ISIL or ISIS, is an unrecognized state and active jihadist militant group in Iraq and Syria. In its unrecognized self-proclaimed status as an independent state, it claims the territory of Iraq and Syria, with implied future claims intended over more of the Levant, including Lebanon, Israel, Palestine, Jordan, Cyprus, and Southern Turkey.
