Just because I didn't go over and serve, does not mean that I don't have the utmost respect for those who have.  What I have a problem with, is the way the government sent all of our forces over there, but never let them finish the task, particularly our current regime.  What has Obama's withdrawl of US forces led to?  The rise of ISIS, who executes anyone and everyone that does not conform to their ideals.  So, when someone here in the USA, wants to cry about death penalty here in this Nation, I really think that they don't know how good they actually have it.

One of my points of criticism against Obama has been the fact that he tried to get troops to remain in Iraq longer than the Bush timetable for withdrawal. Believe it or not, troops began to leave Iraq based on deals Bush made with their government. Some have suggested Obama didn't try hard enough, but you have to put as much, if not more, blame on Bush for those dates.
