Not sure what’s going to happen, but if the desire is to get out of Iraq, killing Soleimani might have been a means to that end. Trump gets to claim Iraq made the decision, not the US leaving on weakened terms.

Why stay in Iraq? Why give them money?

a banner went up with a pointed message to both Iran and the U.S.: “Keep your conflicts away from Iraq.”

Great idea. Trump just helped you morons by erasing Iran's #1 source of "conflict".

You're welcome!

Trump should issue a memo to all agencies regarding this article:

***IGNORE COMPLETELY. DO NOT RESPOND IN ANY FORM WHATSOEVER***

Imagine what would happen if the Administration just STOPPED engaging the leftist fake media. NO interviews. NO comments on threatened "articles" (propaganda). Just...NOTHING.

They would lose their minds...but their power would evaporate completely in a matter of weeks.

You can lead a horse to water........

Iraq has been at war with Iran HOW many times?
But now it seems they are OK/Eager to let Iran take over?

The only real downside to that from my perspective is that it would make Iran stronger, so more of a PITA for us/U.S. and allies in the future.

At this point I wish we had divided Iraq and erased it as a country when we had the opportunity.

Shocked Iraq???? WTF?

Iran vs. Iraq has been a war going on for centuries. The last battles involved gassing one another in the 70's and 80's. They are sworn enemies.

Now I would think someone at the New York Times has a command of 5th grade world history?

“American oil workers were fleeing Iraq on Friday....”

They probably should have taken the hint when they attacked and captured our Embassy.

The Iranians have established a lot of local militias in some parts of Iraq, and are good at getting crowds for demonstrations (like American leftists).

what they aren't mentioning in this news story is that Iraqis have been demonstrating against Iran's influence in the Iraqi government, and that several were killed by Iranian militias or their government sympathizers in the Iraqi police.

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/why-iran-so-afraid-iraqi-lebanese-anti-government-protests-n1074456

The Iraqi government should not be complaining, since it was their job to stop the "demonstrators" who tried to enter the embassy but didn't. the Iraqi government should have stopped the raid on the US Embassy, but didn't. No explanation why.

They need to take a lesson from the Philippine police, who when demonstrators started fighting the cops, ran over some demonstrators here awhile back when they attacked the embassy https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/oct/19/philippines-police-van-rams-protesters-outside-us-embassy-in-manila
