The mess in Iraq has more to do with leftist idealogy than anything else. Its the left that screetchs the religious doctrine of "duty to rebuild" upon us, as if we were God himself.
After the Afgan v. Soviet conflict, it was the left that cast blame on America for the poverty of the Islamic country after the end of the conflict. Why? Because we didnt rebuild it all!
Sure, theres more to it, in Iraq there is a concern of "power vaccum" but I would simply respond with the reality check about Islamic culture in general. Are supposed "best allies", the Saudis, are the life blood of the Jihadist movement. Turkey? What have they done for America? Their people hate our guts, they have plenty of terrorist infrastucture, and their culture is just as intolerant of non-muslims as any other Islamic country.
Why not be rid of this whole idea of good Islamists vs bad ones, and simply face the fact that Islam itself is the problem. No need to help any Muslims once we understand this...
