Bernie Sanders:The war in Iraq was one of the biggest foreign policy mistakes in modern history....

1. Yep

Bernie saw through the smoke and mirrors. How could anyone have confidence in a candidate who was so easily duped and voted for it?

[Android3.14]

24. Oh, I suspect the one who implies she was duped knew exactly what she was doing.

[brucefan]

2. And

Ancient History.

7. How old do you think I am?

[BrotherIvan]

25. A million dead Iraqis thank you for your concern

[sabrina 1]

27. There is no statute of limitations on War Crimes. And last I looked, the war criminals are still

walking around, very much alive, obscenely wealthy, and having the gall to act as though what they did was not one of the biggest war crimes committed in recent memory.

It took half a century to get prosecutions against some South America's war criminals, but to the victims it is NEVER ancient history. Nor will this be.

I will not be complicit is this most recent war crime.

Ten years is NOT ancient history, much as those who thought that by supporting that massive lie would benefit their careers, would like to think.

Until there is some justice for the millions of victims, that particular crime will remain front and center as War Crimes tend to do.

3. Time to move forward!

[kenfrequed]

11. Uh-huh

And I would rather move forward by supporting a candidate that is forward thinking enough to be right the first time.

[AtomicKitten]

16. Translation: "Forget Hillary gave Junior the greenlight to invade Iraq."

We ARE moving forward but we are not going to forget those complicit in getting us involved in the clusterf*ck in the ME that grinds on to this day.

Bernie had the excellent judgment to vote no on the IWR and the Patriot Act. He wasn't bamboozled by lies and he didn't vote with political ambitions in mind ...unlike, well, you know.

Ps: I wonder why Clinton supporters continue to post in this group. Considering the fact that some 60+ people are banned from the Clinton group, posting here comes across as exceedingly rude.

17. Why do you insist on trolling this group?

[pocoloco]

18. .....not quite that much forward

....that nose might even be uncomfortable to the elephant!

Daily kos cartoon shows us what to expect!!

[smokey nj]

23. HRC supported the Iraq war enthusiastically which makes that cartoon irrelevant in this context.

[MissDeeds]

21. Why are you posting here?

This group is for supporters of Sen Sanders. Perhaps turn about is fair play and we should take this as an invitation to infiltrate the HRC group.

[progressoid]

4. I would be shocked to hear any other candidates say that.

Go Bernie!

[tk2kewl]

5. i disagree with Bernie... it wasn't a "mistake"

it was a crime

[rhett o rick]

12. I agree with you.It was a very calculated decision that made big profits for those that participated

in the decision. A million were brutally killed, and millions of lives were ruined and yet some people want to forgive those that made this terrible decision.

[Cheese Sandwich]

22. yep. "Mistake" assumes good intentions.

Plunder, profit, and power and not good intentions.

6. K&R.....

[lark]

8. Ouch

says Jeb, that one stings.

[jalan48]

9. The mainstream media isn't carrying Bernie's message to the public.

The only time I see these types of quotations is on here.

[KoKo]

10. Tell it Bernie! More and more are waking up! Endless wars, legacy...because we invaded Iraq..

Draining our economy while the Wall Street Fat Cats and the Military Industrial Complex bleed the average person dry. The Rich hide their taxes...the rest of have to pay them or go to jail.

[JDPriestly]

13. Bernie has good judgment. He considers his values and the facts and that is the

best way to make decisions.

Go, Bernie.

[FairWinds]

14. It was also known at that time (before the invasion),

that the invasion was going to be a monumental strategic blunder, not to mention a crime against peace.

And then there is the widespread torture that followed.

Likely a million deaths, $ two trillion, young US soldiers broken in body and spirit.

But they did it anyway - and got away with it.

[d_legendary1]

19. I wonder if Bernie would try the Bush Administration for War Crimes

Assuming if there are any limitations to try a war criminal.

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

26. Probably wouldnt for the same reason Obama didnt, takes way too much political

capital and takes the focus, energy and funds away from doing constructive things.

Given the way Obama has been obstructed, I now wish he had.

But any president who does go after a former admin, WILL be gone after also, eventually.

So maybe nobody would
