explain.
also the turmoil in Iraq really started back after WWI when the allied powers broke up the ottoman empire into small countries they didn't pay attention to ethical borders or religious borders and so on and so forth.
In Iraq you have pretty much one radical leader trying to lead three completely different cultures and groups of people who are not very friendly to each other.

But we have provided training and funding and weaponry to these Islamist terrorist groups that they never had access to before. Yes, there was violence but it was in smaller bursts and they were not as emboldened as they are now.
