Then, Carson brought up Iraq.
"Well here's the point -- here's my point. My point is, we we had other ways that we could have done things. I personally don't believe that invading Iraq was an existential threat to us. I don't think Saddam Hussein was an existential threat to us. It's a very different situation right now. Now, we have global jihadists who want to destroy us and our way of life," he said.

Well, okay, you're a charitable guy but militant jihadists aren't an existential threat to the
US either.
The US even funds them at times to fight 'baddies' like the USSR and Assad out of Benghazi.
Now if they ever develop an army or navy, Ben Carson might have the excuse to promote
more intervention abroad.
militant jihadists aren't an existential threat to the
US either. I agree but they are a threat to many defenseless people.
