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”

Is anyone surprised?
ValJar,
Still in
the Mix no doubt!
Not even a SMIDGEN of treason/corruption???
Fucking nuke Iran. I’m tired of these ragheads screwing us over thanks to Jimmy Carter.
Are you sure about the verb tense?
The most EVIL administration in the history of this republic, the Obama administration.
the source is my thought as developed on this post

The current super intense effort to do in the President is politics beyond extreme. It is now us or them
Not was, she IS a spy for the moose slime enemy. And with the brennan aid she has completely compromised our nation. Treason is a nasty word, but the obamaroid and his reptilian spy clearly need trials and hanging. Did we learn nothing from the obamaroid sending pallets of currency to the tune of billions to the Iranians, and nothing but a word salad in return?
Not doubting you, Sir, but I would like to see the implicating data. Even Dan bongino has not made this assertion, and he is on top of this Ukrainian treachery and graft, as well as John Solomon and Sara Carter.
The American was killed by a rocket fired from a KH position.
You make an invalid assertion. You assume the knowledge of Obama involvement is public, not secret. The secret is as important as the Manhatten project
The President’s envoy is the person who knows, not the low level gossips you noted
The President’s envoy is commonly derisively referred to as his attorney. His name is Rudy
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3804498/posts?page=40#40
As yet Rudy has not made the material public, as far as I know. I do think John Solomon and Sara Carter has sources which make them a bit more in the know than ‘low level gossips’.
Yeah, I know whats being reported...where is the evidence that is what occurred?
Also fragments of the rocket showed it was an Iranian built rocket.
Gosh I wonder who wants the USA to get into a war with Iran.
It’s sooooo mysterious.
She still is, and Obama and she should be hanged
Still unbelievable that Roseanne Barr lost her career over that.
“How much evidence do we need of Obama’s treason?”
There currently is more than ample evidence in the public domain to try and convict scores of people at the highest levels of office of Sedition/treason.
The fact is that those who have the authority and responsibility to do so protecting the Republic have not, underscores exactly how much trouble we are in as a nation.
The Constitution says natural born citizen.
Obama is not one.
Both parties want the requirement neutered.
The Kenyan is proof of why it matters.
