They are able to do so because Saddam Hussein was violently and carelessly removed from power at a cost to US taxpayers of over $1 tril. In the vacuum left behind, they grew and prospered. They were aided by the deliberate creation of instability in Syria by the US,extra-legally, with the dubious aim of removing a "bad man" who has committed 1/100th of the atrocities that the current NK leader has committed.

Below is my post from another thread, you are bang on regarding Saddam
I am not a big fan Putin except on this one.... Americans ( as usual) wimped out and the Europeans going Muslim in one generation anyway (about 2 mil will be there in the next 24 months and then the female folk will show up...) none of these two did learn from history, and thus they will repeat it.
Putin knows, because he can read a map, that should ISIL wins Syria and Iraq ( Europe will fall all on its own so he does not care), El Baghdadi, just has to cross some of the Muslim republics between Irag, Syria and Russia to be at the soft underbelly of Russia itself. Putin is smart to see that and has balls to do something about it.
The rest of the so called civilised world does not see it...Its too bad... So lock up your daughters...they will soon be shopping for the 72 virgins for each martyr.. So the price will go up. Putin also knows that out of 30 thou of ISIL fighters about 1/2 are Chechens and others from the Russian underbelly ( that makes about 15,000) and ALL what the Americans and the Europeans talk about is the 300 or so of their citizens...fuck me with that math.
BTW:
Mohammad Reza Pahlavi... come back all is forgiven,
Muhamar Gfhaddafy....come back all is forgiven
Saddam Hussain....come back all is forgiven
Hosni Mubarak ... come back all is forgiven
Abidine Ben Ali ...come back all is forgiven
Bashar Al Assad don't go we'll forgive you...
