More BS lies from Occupy Democrats and YOU!
BREAKING: Army General (Ray Odierno) Exposes Barack Obama in a BIG WAY After Resigning
“It’s frustrating to watch it,” Odierno said. “I go back to the work we did in 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010 and we got it to a place that was really good. Violence was low, the economy was growing, politics looked like it was heading in the right direction.”
He contends that if the United States had left more troops in the region, ISIS would not have been able to capture large portions of that country or neighboring Syria.
“If we had stayed a little more engaged, I think maybe it might have been prevented,” Odierno told Fox News. “I’ve always believed the United States played the role of honest broker between all the groups and when we pulled ourselves out, we lost that role.”
"The outgoing Army chief says that he wanted the United States to keep 30,000-35,000 troops in Iraq, but that his recommendation was not followed."
“I think it would have been good for us to stay,” he said.
After Mosul fell to ISIS last year, Odierno says that the White House did not contact him for input, even though he had commanded troops for a longer time there than anyone else."

You are correct, don't let actual FACTS get in YOUR way, which in this case is apparent.

Where's the BS lie?
“I remind everybody, us leaving at the end of 2011 was negotiated in 2008 by the Bush administration. That was always the plan. We had promised them that we would respect their sovereignty,” said Odierno, who commanded troops in Iraq for more than five years between 2003 and 2010, including two years as the top American general in the country.
Keeping U.S. troops in Iraq beyond 2011 would have required the Iraqi parliament’s approval, which was hardly guaranteed.
“I don’t know if we could have convinced them to do that or not,” Odierno said. “I will say we had the same problem initially, when we initially hammered out the [status of forces] agreement in ’08 as well.” Without that agreement, U.S. troops ran the risk of being arrested for any misconduct.
I don't know this site, its just the first of many that popped up on the quote from the OP's meme.

Maybe YOU should take a lesson in sovereignty - The US COULD NOT keep troops in Iraq without the approval of the Iraqi government.
Iraq absolutely REFUSED to allow any US troops to remain in their SOVEREIGN NATION.
Want in one hand and s**t in the other and see which one fills up first.

And Bush did not know about Obama's Arab Spring that threw the entire region into endless turmoil! How's that for a fact! Oh, with Hilllary orchestrating it all.

By the way, the lie I was referring to in the meme was that Obama didn't create the vacuum for ISIS to be birthed and grow. Obama did nothing to stop them in the early stages.

And the Arab Spring was caused by BUSH DESTABILIZING THE MIDDLE EAST. Keep trying to blame Obama for Bush's FUCKUP, even Bush's DADDY said his son FUCKED UP IN THE MIDDLE EAST.
