By your logic we should support Assad. Actually, that would be a far easier way to end the civil war than by resorting to any other outcome.
Still, though, regardless of what you think of the US invasion, at the time when Obama foolishly withdrew US troops and turned Iraq over to the completely incompetent and utterly sectarian Maliki, there was no ISIS in Iraq. While the invasion destabilized Iraq, the troop withdrawal destabilized the fragile peace we had managed to piece together.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.
