Russia Iran and Iraq have set up a coordinating center in Baghdad
So Iraq is in Putins anti islamic state coalition along with Syria, China, Iran
I believe obama could have retained a US footprint in central Iraq, with Russia and Syria to the west and Iran to the south
But obama was too weak, and too untrustworthy to do so
So again, Putin fills the leadership vacuum
I wonder when Iraq will order the US military air to leave ?
That is some fine analysis FRiend.
I would not be surprised if Iraq's continued participation in Putin's anti-ISIS alliance was made contingent on Iraq ordering all U.S. forces out of their country, something Iran would not at all object to.

So, when does Turkey quit allowing US warplanes to use their bases and airspace?
