Iraq is majority Shia. Iran is majority Shia. Isis is Sunni. Saddam was Sunni, a minority in Iraq, but saddam kept the Sunni in power. When he was deposed the Sunni were repressed and pushed into a repressed role. However they... Fuck it. It would take a week of Ivy League lectures to explain what's going on. My point is that we fucked things up by getting rid of saddam and not putting a powerful repressive regime in place. But, also, the people of the region want to live under Isis and if we're not willing to utterly destroy them (which I don't think we are) then we should just let the people of the region take care of it.
