As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Strike the Root,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

“I did not have sexual relations…”
“Saddam is hiding WMDs…”
“If you like your doctor, you can keep him…”
“Mexico will pay for the wall…”

My Commentary: Keep outsourcing personal responsibility and accountability to these professionally lying lizards… This way, you have a built-in scapegoat to blame, while they continue to run a country of millions into the ground!

What many did not know was that, in a twist of such bitterly symbolic irony that it could only occur in the Middle East, the US would also be bombing hundreds of millions of dollars worth of American military equipment.

Here’s why: in the decade since the 2003 US-led Iraq invasion, the US has spent a fortune training and arming the Iraqi army in the hopes of readying it to secure the country once America left. That meant arming the Iraqi army with high-tech and extremely expensive American-made guns, tanks, jeeps, artillery, and more.
