Thousands of Iraqi protesters are trying to storm the US Embassy in Baghdad, according to posts on social media, protesting Israel’s assassination of Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut yesterday. 
Videos show protesters clashing with security forces in riot gear. Hezbollah flags and photos of Nasrallah can be seen among the large crowd, along with flags of Iran-backed militias in Iraq known as the Popular Mobilization Force. 
VIDEO AT LINK............... 
Earlier, Iraq’s Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani condemned the strike on Nasrallah as “a crime that shows the Zionist entity has crossed all the red lines.” 
In a statement, he called the Israeli strikes on south Beirut a “shameful attack” and described Nasrallah as “a martyr on the path of the righteous.”

    Missed a good opportunity for a precision missile strike.

    This administration will let it happen. They want American hostages.

    A couple of wars back, I remember people saying 
"Nuke 'em, and let God sort it out." I long for the day when there are no more outraged muslims. Their radioactive dust and ashes will have blown away with the wind.

    I thought the Iraqis loved us? Didn’t we free them from saddam?

    One of the stupidest things we ever did. All it did was to embolden Iran.

    Why is there an embassy in Baghdad? What purpose does it serve? Stop the madness!!!! The US cannot be the policeman of the world. This is planned—planned bankruptcy. What else explains it?

    Hit them with the foo gas and the quad .50s. That should curb their enthusiasm a bit.

    Looks like we missed a few of the Red Guard.
This is what happens when you are most focused on “changing hearts and minds” rather than just eliminating bad actors with extreme prejudice.

    And we’re pulling our military out of there, particularly the airport. There is no safe path to the airport otherwise. It’s gonna be a repeat of Kabul trying to get the thousands of people we have on that Embassy compound out of there.
 
To: Red Badger
    The Democrat idiots that gave us Tehran, Benghazi, Kabul, and now again are bringing Bagdad? According to Hillary, "So what difference does it make!"
Time to overfly Bagdad with F22's breaking the sound barrier at angels 2!

    Don’t forget the 2012 attack on the temporary embassy in Benghazi that took four people’s lives including the Ambassador. Biden and Harris are MIA this time around, just like Obama was MIA during the Benghazi siege. Let’s see if they blame it on a video.

    "Iran has agents provocateur in Iraq.............."
The U.S. military took out Iran General Qasem Soleimani in a drone strike near Baghdad's airport in 2020.
