Obviously the UK report is far more focused on its own government than ours, but this is an official governmental report from a close ally confirming that the illegal Libyan War undertaken by Obama and Hillary led to the rise of ISIS. It's no longer some "claim" made by "right-wing sites". It's going to be a lot harder for Hillary to dismiss it.
Britain's military intervention in Libya was based on "inaccurate intelligence" and "erroneous assumptions," a report released Wednesday found, pointing the finger at former Prime Minister David Cameron for failing to develop a sound Libya strategy.
This is the same "intelligence" that Obama used to lie us into the war.
The United Kingdom and France led the international intervention in Libya in 2011 with the aim of protecting civilians from forces loyal to then-leader Moammar Gadhafi.
Notice how CNN rewrites history. Suddenly Obama's part in the war just vanishes. It's all the UK and France.
But Britain's Foreign Affairs Committee found that the Cameron-led government "failed to identify that the threat to civilians was overstated and that the rebels included a significant Islamist element."
Remember that Obama sold us this war by falsely claiming that he had to protect civilians And the Islamist aspect was dismissed until Benghazi and then the civil war brought it to the fore.
"The consequence was political and economic collapse, inter-militia and inter-tribal (warfare), humanitarian and migrant crises, widespread human rights violations and the growth of ISIL in North Africa," the report said, using an alternative name for the ISIS militant group, which has gained control of parts of Libya.
In short, Obama and Hillary fed the growth of ISIS allowing it to take over Libyan cities.
