This is happening not because US removed Saddam. He had iron fist on the populace sure.
However, this is Sunni's wet dream in Iraq. They wanted revenge on the Shiias for what they've supposedly done to them after Saddam's removal.
Even with the dictator you think everything was roses? There were mass graves filled with executed Shiias, Kurds and other insurrectionists. What is happening, has been boiling in ISIS and other people head for decades or centuries.
I'm not saying US is not to blame also. They're just not the sole cause.
The US problem is that they listen to those back stabbing Saudi oil magnates and they have to act. US is like a crack addict.
ISIS were not the only ones fighting Assad in Syria. There are rebels fighting in Syria's national interest and I believe those were the intended recipient of the US aid. Additionally, I remember when US was reluctant to send aid to rebels in Syria, everybody was criticizing the government saying that the reason for inaction was no profit to be had there.
