BETTYBOOP

I hope that is how this goes down.

@Luigi1 I get that but despite all the help we have given iraq and other middle Eastern countries over the years , what has the west gained really? Not a lot. Every middle Eastern country there is would stab the west in the back quicker than look at us. That includes iraq. Allah is the all consuming reason and of course the radical amongst them. They like the lifestyles we have bit want it handed to them. Most are ruled by dictators in some shape or form and we all know how good they are at paying lip service but never acting upon it. They all believe deep down they are superior to any western citizen or law . IMHO.

I don't support Iran or Isreal. However, Isreal started this and I also listened to Irans speech at the security council meeting in the un and I have to say I agreed with what they said. Isreal is just as bad as Iran. Let them fight it out between them bring home the nato forces

Iraqi PM: time for US-Led coalition in Iraq has ended IraqUS-Led CoalitionMohammed Shia Al-Sudani 2024-04-19 13:29 Font Shafaq News/ Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani on Friday that said the justifications for the presence of the US-led anti-ISIS international coalition in Iraq have "ended." His remarks came during a speech to a gathering of Iraqi diaspora in Michigan, USA, early Friday morning (Baghdad time). Al-Sudani said in his speech, "the government today represents all components, based on a broad political coalition, and the people's program is reflected in their optimism and relief, which was accompanied by security and political stability. These factors have pushed us to move forward, provide services, and move within a new economic and investment policy, along with essential economic reforms." The Prime Minister referred to the "government's balanced policy towards regional events and the repercussions of the war in Gaza, which Iraq had previously warned about its repercussions," adding that "the government has adopted a foreign policy characterized by balance to make Iraq a hub for security, according to the principle of interlacing interests and economic partnerships. This is why the development road project came to reinforce stability in Iraq." Al-Sudani also stressed that "Iraq is on the road to recovery and has taken its leading position as a magnet for companies, which represents a guarantee for the stability of the region. Victory over ISIS was achieved with the sacrifices of its sons and the help of the international community and friends under the banner of the international coalition, the justifications for whose existence have ended today," noting that "work is underway to move the relationship with the coalition countries to broader stations beyond security cooperation." The Prime Minister, according to his media office, revealed the content of the meetings with US officials and company representatives, which resulted in cooperation with US companies in investment opportunities that were presented to them in the oil, gas, and petrochemicals sectors.

Iraq is as stable as ot is ever gonna be. Iran will always meddle unless they are turned to rubble but that would set the rv back decades. They could move the rate and let us all get out and then they can get on with it. Kim Clement always said to get out quick and most of us will

Has there been anything from the Iraqi government condemning the strike within its borders? I think as long as this carry on doesn't spill into other countries or they don't retaliate then it will be fine. Isreal is trying to provoke Syria and Iraq to react and thus cause further conflict . At the same time the missiles into Iraq and Syria were warning shots to them for allowing Iran to use their air space. . IMHO

@JonnyV Just hang him. The hague is too comfortable for him. He is as bad as Saddam was. He has committed massive crimes against the people of Iraq.

Another move away from their reliance on Iran

who is he and how corrupt is he? I have never heard of him.

Absolutely 100 % correct. Malaki only ever thinks of himself . He cares for nobody. So it must be very good

Somebody kick pimpy off the roller coaster please!

@Artitech... how did you decide that? What am I not seeing?

If all these deals come to fruition., give it a couple of years and everything will come with a label "Made in Iraq" instead of "made in China or Taiwan "

We ain't going anywhere anytime soon

I hadn't come across Ron.steele until very recently... not sure what I make of him...
