Pompeo reminds the world that the United States and Israel are above the law.

[the other mike]

Nailed you, angello. Have fun while you're here, propaganda parrot.

Americans are not responsible for the war crimes of our leaders, unless we give them the go-ahead, like you do.

You call them war crimes. I call it self defense of civilization against a primitive misogynistic murderous death cult. No different than the war against the Nazis.

So all Germans are Nazis ?

 

[Ambivalent1]

Sorry son, what in the world makes you thin any of us are subject to "international law"? The laws of OUR nation are paramount.

If you defend war criminals, you are one.

(Shrugs) Americans dont answer to Global anything

In the meantime China is laughing at us while we go bankrupt.

You need to bone up son, their economy isn't quite as good as you think

Actually the beginning of ISIS was among the Sunni prisoners being held at the beginning of the US invasion of Iraq in 2003 - 2004.

Bullshit. There was no ISIS until Obama pulled out of Iraq and cut the funding for the Sunni Militias Petraeus had created, trained and funded to fight al Qaeda. When Obama took office there was no ISIS and al Qaeda was reduced to being no more than a nuisance.

We're both right actually.

The group's roots are in the Sunni terror group al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI), started in 2004 by Jordanian Islamist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. It was a major player in the insurgency against the US-led forces that toppled Saddam Hussein in 2003, and against the Shiite-dominated government that eventually replaced Hussein.
Here's how ISIS was really founded - CNN

There was no ISIS when Obama took office. ISIS was formed by some of the more radical Islamic terrorists affiliated with al Qaeda after Obama pulled out of Iraq and cut funding for the Sunni militias that had, with US logistical support, rendered al Qaeda nearly non existent. It would be fair to say that Obama created ISIS and President Trump defeated ISIS.

Yep, because the History of our invasion and occupation of Iraq didn't start until the Obama presidency right? Fact is President Obama honored President Bushes withdrawal timeline as set out in the famous SOFA he had to negotiate with the Iraqis at the end of 2008. The president had every right by that agreement to pull the troops out at anytime but kept to the agreement and first pulled the combat troops out of the Cities. Then the final withdrawal according to the SOFA. Thank God he did too. When ISIS took control of the Sunnis areas of Iraq and threaten Baghdad (not to mention Erbil, but that's a different storyline), that forced the Iraqis to stand up. With the Kurds and plenty of air support, they worked together to drive ISIS out. Not a whole lot of US soldiers lost their lives in that coalition.

All bullshit. Obama pulled in 2011 because he believed that if he didn't live up to his 2008 promise to withdraw it would hurt his chances for reelection. When Obama explained (lied) why he was leaving Iraq, he said it was because the Iraqis no longer needed us, not that he was powerless to stay because of the SOFA - the same SOFA that was in place when Obama returned to Iraq to fight ISIS. When Obama said he was leaving Iraq because Iraq no longer needed us, he was lying. The Pentagon had assured him that if he withdrew US troops the country would go up in flames. Obama considered whether it worth it to allow hundreds of thousands of people to die and millions of people to become homeless refugees to enhance his chance for a second term, and he decided it was.

Bush was not able to get the Iraqis agree to give our soldiers immunity from Iraqi law. That's the reason he agreed to the time line for withdrawal in the SOFA. It was the Iraqis who push the UN to withdraw it's support for the US occupation in the first place. Everybody knew before long before that agreement that the simmering civil war was going to erupt once we left. It's what many in Iraq wanted. That's one of the results of Bushes invasion and occupation.

The flowery rhetoric surrounding the event is just politics. I'm glad Obama did not re-invade but backed a coalition. Put those with some skin in the game on the ground, not our kids.

The US President needs no approval to defend America and attack ISIS, a viral offshoot of al Qaeda.

Bullshit. There was no ISIS until Obama pulled out of Iraq and cut the funding for the Sunni Militias Petraeus had created, trained and funded to fight al Qaeda. When Obama took office there was no ISIS and al Qaeda was reduced to being no more than a nuisance.

When Obama took office Isis had already been in a Iraq for four years

ISIS originally formed in 2004 from the remnants of Saddam’s Palace Guard. Bush’s men fired all of the Iraqi military leadership but let them keep their weapons.

Damn right he did and he didn't need an agreement. He had to. ISIS was making moves on Erbil. It was a line in the sand not drawn by Obama! To his credit he limited the amount of US combat troops he put in harms way, at least in the battle against ISIS in Iraq.

So the Iraqis didn't ask for our help in Baghdad? They said "We can handle it. We don't need your stinking air support! "?

Again, all bullshit. The claim that we couldn't have stayed was a lie Obama supporters made up to try to cover up the atrocities Obama had created.

History of ISIS | since911.com

Wrong, your article is confusing ISI, Islamic State of Iraq, with ISIL, Islamic State of Iraq and Levant, also known as ISIS.

"On 7 April 2013 Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi transformed ISI into the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL, ISIS, IS), which is still active today."

Islamic State of Iraq - Wikipedia

While the elements that would eventually form ISIL or ISIS were present in Iraq before Obama took office, they were held at bay by the Sunni militias Petraeus had formed, trained, armed and funded so that they were barely a nuisance by the time Obama took office. When Obama withdrew US troops to enhance his chances of a second term, he also cut off all funding and support for these militias, allowing al Qaeda and its affiliates to reassert themselves in the Sunni areas and eventually in other parts of Iraq and Syria. Obama supporters continue to view the hundreds of thousands of people who died and the millions who were made homeless refugees by Obama's cynical political decision to withdraw from Iraq as insignificant collateral damage to Obama's reelection campaign.

In an effort to threaten everyone into not investigating US or Israeli war crimes in the International Criminal Court, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says anyone involved in such probes will lose their visa and may be sanctioned.

The Washington war hawk said that action had to be taken because any investigation into alleged war crimes and torture committed by the United States would be a threat to US rule of law. Visas will be pulled or denied for anyone who has been involved in or even requested an ICC investigation of “any US personnel.”

The ICC is currently mulling over a request to investigate possible war crimes committed by the US in Afghanistan in the course of the nearly 20-year conflict which has left over 100,000 Afghans dead. The international court prosecutor’s office says it has “reasonable basis” to believe that “war crimes and crimes against humanity” were, and continue to be, committed by foreign government forces in Afghanistan.

Pompeo openly stated that the action was intended to get the court to drop the potential investigation, and that Washington was ready to further increase the pressure if they don’t do as he says.

“We are prepared to take additional steps, including economic sanctions, if the ICC does not change course,” he said.
