-and constantly being obstructed.  Worth mentioning.  In any case, the notion that Saddam presented a danger to us is, I agree, laughable.  The danger he posed was to his own people, not to us.  Hey, I have to ask, with no air force and an army in tatters..how was he supposed to have stopped something like ISIS?

I think the point is that without the instability added by the US toppling of Saddam, there wouldn't have been the right climate for an ISIS.
