While news that there are “warning signs of genocide” occurring in Iraq begins to spread, it’s an important to remember that President Obama, who took full credit for troop withdrawal in Iraq, claimed “we’re leaving behind a sovereign, stable and self-reliant Iraq.”

A stable Iraq. A sovereign Iraq. A self-reliant Iraq.
Tell that to the children currently dying in the mountains.

Tell that to the youths being crucified by ISIS.
Tell that to this woman who collapsed in Parliament after pleading for humanity to help those people “being butchered under the banner of there is no God but Allah.”
Sell a stable Iraq to Mark Arabo, spokesman for Ending Genocide In Iraq, as he tells CNN that “children are being beheaded” and “mothers are being raped and killed” and “fathers are being hung.”
Sell it to this man, who had 15 members of his family beheaded in front of him.
Let the thousands fleeing the largest Christian city in Iraq, know how stable it is.
Better yet, Mr. Obama, let your predecessor know how you’ve stabilized Iraq. President George Bush, who has lived rent free in your head for the better part of your 5 years in office, warned you:
To begin withdrawing before our commanders tell us we are ready … would mean surrendering the future of Iraq to al Qaeda. It would mean that we’d be risking mass killings on a horrific scale. It would mean we’d allow the terrorists to establish a safe haven in Iraq to replace the one they lost in Afghanistan. It would mean increasing the probability that American troops would have to return at some later date to confront an enemy that is even more dangerous.
