George Will: Iraq Situation a Product of 'Implementing the Foreign Policy' Obama Promised

On Thursday’s “Special Report” on the Fox News Channel, Washington Post columnist George Will explained the collapse of the Iraqi army to the forces known as the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) is nothing more than a product of the foreign policy President Barack Obama promised as a candidate.

“The president is, in fact, implementing the foreign policy he promised,” Will said. “It was retrenchment by one word, retreatment by another. He is implementing the foreign policy that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton facilitated without expressing any qualms. He is implementing a policy that the American public has said in polls it wants right now. It wants it at least until it gets queasy by looking at the pictures they’ve been seeing tonight.”
