And while the Republican presidential nominee argued against nation-building in a foreign policy speech Monday, he advocated for something even more grandiose: seizing Iraq's oil wealth in the aftermath of the U.S. invasion in 2003 that toppled Saddam Hussein.

This is a very dangerous proposition and will endanger Americans.

That is Donald Trump as President want to invade for oil --- and not for the good of Iraq.

Donald Trump will turn the whole Muslim world in Middle East against US.

Donald Trump is a very dangerous and stupid clown - for risking Americans live abroad.

Instead of defeating ISIS, Donald Trump will make more Muslim to join hand with ISIS to defeat Donald Trump's troop.

Donald Trump is a stupid fool.

Donald Trump will help ISIS in their recruitment - that US has invade a Muslim country to rob them of oil --- and all the Muslim world will team up --- to fight against Donald Trump to defend their oil.

Donald Trump, you are really an idiot.

Donald Trump you should just shut up --- so as not to jeopardise the current ongoing joint operation between US forces and the Iraqi coalition troop to defeat the ISIS in Mosul, the final stronghold.

Your statement will mess up the ongoing operation big time to defeat ISIS.

Donald Trump, you are a real stupid fool.

Donald Trump is touching on a very sensitive security topic --- that will jeopardised Americans abroad.

And his idea is real crap - and he should be stopped from endangering the lives of Americans abroad.

  If I'm not mistaken I think Tump's ideology qualifies as an occupation which is not at all what the US intended to do.

  Trump is stupid. There is no way in the world that the Muslims and Arabs would allow a US contingent to seize permanent control of M/E territory, and the oil therein. Come to think of it, the global community would denounce us for acting as occupiers, instead of acting as liberators. Those who supported the lying, warmongering Bush2 regime are already ashamed for having done so. No way would our allies approve of Trump's ideas on Iraq/oil. The man is an idiot.

  Trump's followers, just like Trump, have no clue what is going on in the world. Trump tells them anything and they cheer and clap.
