US Halts All Weapons Deliveries To Iraq As Local Demands For Troop Exit Grow

FTA:
Upping the ante and further threatening downward spiraling US-Iraq relations, the Trump administration has now suspended all weapons deliveries to Iraq, including missile systems promised as part a $1.8 billion contract signed in 2016.

Department of Defense officials cited security concerns over the arms deliveries, also amid recent White House threats to actually impose sanctions on the country while completely severing military ties. However, most analysts see these latest threats - which also have been tied with demands the country pay back the “billions” spent on an air base should US forces be made to leave - as but an attempt to leverage greater Baghdad dependency on Washington (and not Tehran).

Goodbye and Good Riddance to the EU

FTA:
Jean Monnet, one of the leftist French minds behind the European abduction, candidly said, “Europe’s nations should be led towards a superstate, without their people understanding what is happening. This can be accomplished by successive steps, each disguised as having an economic purpose, but which will eventually and irreversibly lead to federation.”
