The Sadrist movement's media published a picture of the movement leader Muqtada al-Sadr’s visit to the home of the commander of the Quds Force in the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, General Qassem Soleimani, to “offer condolences.”

It is noteworthy that the deputy head of the Popular Mobilization Authority, Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis, and the commander of the Quds Force in the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, General Qassem Soleimani, director of the public relations directorate in the popular crowd, and a number of its members were assassinated by a US air strike near Baghdad International Airport at dawn on Friday.

Would have been a good opportunity to send a drone out to take care of Sadr.

If Iran chooses war it wil start in the Straits of Hormuz imho.  20-30% of the world’s oil travels thru it and the USA has numerous Destroyers and aircraft carriers near by to keep it open.  If they are so he’ll bent on retaliation and go after just one of our ships it will be the end for Iran’s Regime.

Sadr exemplifies how massive the issue is.....he also has American blood on his hands.

Iraqi elections sourced him as a credible leader for a great many in the country.

Sadr is a huge problem....and has been for a long time.    CL

Controversy in Iraq after Sadr Joins Khamenei, Soleimani at Iran Ceremony

Baghdad - Fadhel al-Nashmi

The appearance of Iraqi cleric Moqtada Sadr next to Iran’s supreme leader Ali Khamenei Khamenei and the commander of the Quds Force of the Revolutionary Guard Corps, Major General Qasem Soleimani, has stirred controversy in Iraq.

The Iranian Fars news agency published on Tuesday a photo showing Sadr, who has been critical of pro-Iran groups in Iraq, joining Iran's supreme leader during a rare visit to Tehran to mark the Shiite holy day of Ashura.

Websites linked to the Sadrist Movement also released photos of Sadr distributing food in the Iranian city of Qom, adding that the visit had a personal and not a political motive.

However, Sadr’s trip to Iran sparked controversy with some analysts supporting the visit, and saying Sadr was acting as a national leader who protects the interests of Iraq. Others criticized his visit and said they believe the Iraqi cleric has become pro-Iran, similar to other Iraqi political leaders.

Sadr’s office did not comment on the cleric’s visit. However, Iraqi Shiite lawmaker and member of the Sadrist Movement Hakem al-Zameli said on Wednesday that Sadr was attending a ceremony in Tehran, which coincided with the presence of Khamenei and Soleimani.

“Sadr holds good relations with all neighboring countries,” the MP told reporters, adding that all parties respect his national honorable stands towards Iraq and the current regional crises.

Member of the Sairoon Alliance deputy Riyad al-Massoudi also commented on Sadr’s appearance in Iran, saying that Iraq’s relationship with regional countries is built on the respect of sovereignty and good neighborliness.

However, former Sadrist Movement activist Ghaith al-Tamimi, who is known for his public criticism of Iran, criticized Sadr, saying he can no longer be regarded as a national leader.

Head of the Iraqi Center for Political Thought Ihsan al-Shammari told Asharq Al-Awsat that Sadr’s appearance in Iraq was a shock for his followers and his political allies because he is known for disagreeing with the Iranian policies in Iraq.

“Sadr’s visit to Iran holds several messages, mainly his aim to create a balance, after accusations for being close to Arab and Gulf states,” Shammari said.

I think if there is ANY major retaliation that the way it will be ended very rapidly is we will destroy all the oil fields and refineries in Iran and the people in one week will over trough  the government. they are almost there now and with out the #1 guy alive anymore I think the people may feel a lot more emboldened you can only hold them down for so long.

Sovereignty, Stability of Iraq Priority for All: France

 
 BasNews   04/01/2020 - 22:47  Published in Iraq
Sovereignty, Stability of Iraq Priority for All: France
 

ERBIL - French President Emmanuel Macron has argued that the sovereignty and stability of Iraq as well as the fight against the Islamic State (IS) are a priority for all sides.

"The escalation of tensions in the Middle East is not inevitable," Macron wrote on Twitter, as the situation in Iraq has dramatically deteriorated in the wake of the recent escalations in the US-Iran prolonged disputes.

"France has two priorities that I share with all the leaders concerned that I contact: the sovereignty and security of Iraq, as well as the stability of the region," the French president added.

He further argued that "nothing should distract us from these objectives."

Earlier on Friday morning, the general commander of Iran's Quds Force, Qassem Soleimani, and deputy commander of the Hashd al-Shaab, were both killed in a US airstrike near Baghdad International Airport.

Agree with all above statements.  It’s like Saddam’s Regime and 2003 all over again.  

When Trump went after Soleimani that was USA’s all in card.  Trump said in his speech yesterday he didn’t want war, didn’t want Regime change but if Iran decided to escalate we had our targets and wouldn’t hesitate to take em out.  Iran has been itching for a fight and I guess after 40 years of pricking us it’s time to take on the Great Satan.   So idiotic, such a waste, and millions will suffer if it goes full blown WWIII.
