The report about Iran sending weapons to Iraq comes as President Obama acknowledged to Vice News that the origins of the Islamic State lie in the U.S. invasion of Iraq.

President Obama: ”ISIL is a direct outgrowth of al-Qaeda in Iraq that grew out of our invasion, which is an example of unintended consequences, which is why we should generally aim before we shoot. We’ve got a 60-country coalition. We will slowly push back ISIL out of Iraq. I’m confident that will happen.”
