We are, however, responsible in part for THIS problem. That's a huge argument for getting involved in Iraq over others.
I posted this in another thread:

What's happening there now was going to happen if we stayed 10 years or 100 years and it was going to happen whether or not we invaded...we just happened to be the ones that knocked the lid off the boiling pot.
Our invasion was the tipping point, but if we hadn't invaded something else would have lit the fire. So I feel no obligation as an American to go back over there and "fix" the problem. They have to fix it themselves this time.

And then we wouldn't have any responsibility at all. But WE were the ones who created this power vacuum. 10 years later, a 100 years later, something might be different that would influence the brutality of those who moved in. ISIS is not your average bear. So Queda would have been better for the people of Iraq.
