A mere seven years after 9-11 .. America's most shameful episode (x2)

Iranian militia leader Hadi al-Amiri, one of several identified as leading an attack on the U.S. embassy in Baghdad on Tuesday, reportedly visited the White House in 2011 during the presidency of Barack Obama.
On Tuesday, a mob in Baghdad attacked the U.S. embassy in retaliation against last weekend’s U.S. airstrikes against the Iran-backed Shiite militia Kataib Hezbollah (KH), responsible for killing an American civilian contractor. KH is one of a number of pro-Iran militias that make up the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF/PMU), which legally became a wing of the Iraqi military after fighting the Sunni Islamic State terrorist group.
President Donald Trump has since accused Iran of having “orchestrated” the embassy attack and stated that the government would be “held fully responsible.”
Breitbart News reporter John Hayward described the attack on the embassy, writing:
The mob grew into thousands of people, led by openly identified KH supporters, some of them wearing uniforms and waving militia flags. The attack began after a funeral service for the 25 KH fighters killed by the U.S. airstrikes. Demonstrators marched through the streets of Baghdad carrying photos of the slain KH members and Iraq’s top Shiite cleric, Grand Ayatollah Ali Sistani, who condemned the American airstrikes.
KH vowed to seek revenge for the airstrikes on Monday. Both KH and the Iranian military unit that supports it, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), have been designated as terrorist organizations by the U.S. government. The government of Saudi Arabia also described KH as one of several “terrorist militias supported by the Iranian establishment” in remarks on Tuesday condemning the assault on the U.S. embassy.
The attackers were able to smash open a gate and push into the embassy compound, lighting fires, smashing cameras, and painting messages such as “Closed in the name of resistance”

I wonder why?
Quelle suprise
She was a spy for the Iranians.
The real tragedy is that the entirety of the democrat party still idolizes them. Half of the democrat party idolizes them because they're traitors.
I want to see a subpoena the list of Christmas (Yes I know, it would be holiday cards instead from the Obama’s) cards that the Obamas sent this year, and see if this guy is on the list
the Iranian kickback to Obama flowed through Burisima in Ukraine
And just how do we know this coordinated by the Pelosi/Obama/DNC/Hillary axis and funded by Soros?
Where’s the evidence that KH killed the American contractor in the first place?
...where they planned the attack.
How much evidence do we need of Obama's treason? He is still liable if proven acts in office are a federal statutory crime and the SOL hasn't run.
“”Iranian born Valerie Jarrett still lives with the Obamas.””
How do you know that?
They are all trying to drag Trump into a war before Nov 2020.
Probably from the Rush Limbaugh program. Not sure.
That would explain a lot.
Do you have a source?
"Obama’s goal, according to a close family friend, is to oust Trump from the presidency either by forcing his resignation or through his impeachment.
"And Obama is being aided in his political crusade by his longtime consigliere, Valerie Jarrett, who has moved into the 8,200-square-foot, $5.3-million Kaloroma mansion with the former president and Michelle Obama, long time best friends."
"Jarrett played a vital – if at times low-key – role in the Obama presidency. She lived in the White House, dined with the Obamas, and help shape his domestic and foreign policies
You mean this Valerie Jarrett?
Obama is an anti Christ.
Just a couple of stacks of bills that fell of the pallet of cash?
Why is his butt not in Gitmo NOW?!?!!!
The ape is prettier.
