Iraq wasn't really stable in 2008 the massive amount of military force used in the surge caused a temporary mild lull in the Iraqi civil war and gave Iraq the illusion of stability, although there were still bombings on a regular basis and a few major battles https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_in_Iraq https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iraq_spring_fighting_of_2008

Obama's biggest mistake, in my opinion, was getting involved in Iraq again and not just letting the chips fall as they may.
