Full text of Jeb Bush’s foreign policy speech | Tampa Bay Times

Rcently GOP candidate of the nomination gave a foreign policy speech..,….I guess he felt he had to do so since he flubbed the simple question…..”knowing what we know now would you invade Iraq?”

He tap danced around his answer for a week of clarifications before he settled on an answer……….but now his newest speech is so wrong that it wreaks….

History Lesson?: In his big foreign policy speech on Tuesday, Jeb! Bush basically blamed everything that’s gone wrong in Iraq – the rise of Islamic State group, the empowerment of Iran and the three-way conflict with Syria – on two people. Spoiler alert: One of them isn’t former President George W. Bush, architect of the 2003 invasion. But after blasting President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for their “fatal error” of withdrawing from Iraq too soon, critics jumped all over Jeb! for basically walking past the fact that his brother created the mess by invading the country in the first place. And then there’s this: As Fred Kaplan points out at Slate, it was Bush’s brother’s administration, not Obama’s, that signed the status of forces agreement, on Nov. 17, 2008, Article 24 of which states that “All the United States Forces shall withdraw from all Iraqi territory no later than December 31, 2011.”
