US Govt. Chose to Allow ISIS to Rule Iraq’s Mosul for Two Years
 
 

Washington decided to allow ISIS terrorists to “dominate [the Iraqi city of] Mosul for two years” rather than supporting an earlier offensive against the foreign-backed militants, an influential US daily reports.

Insisting on major US roles in preparing and coordinating Iraqi army and multiple volunteer militia forces to prepare for the looming Mosul offensive against the brutal terrorist force responsible for massive atrocities across Iraq and neighboring Syria, The Washington Post cited US officials and military experts as claiming that a Mosul victory would “validate the [Obama] administration’s decision.”

According to the report, Washington also did not press for an offensive against the Takfiri militants because it did not want to ask “the Iraqi government to permit an American combat role.”

US Obama/Clinton Govt. Chose to Allow ISIS to Rule Iraq’s Mosul for Two Years

Fixed.

Never mind, it seems the Shias did a lot to inflame the situation as well leading up to ISIS.

I wonder if the Malachi Government was doing the same thing, the Assad Government is accused of doing, then people link them and say they are all "Ba'athists", I'm no expert in that. ISIS has many fathers though; it can not be rooted to one cause; and we were fighting the Iranians and Soleimani there in Iraq as well.
