The US will be remembered in history as the country that was most successful with military invasions but did not know how to conquer effectively. The Romans and Mongols could do both.

I believe it is related to Sadr.
Iraq's powerful Sadr says he quits politics, clashes erupt in Baghdad

I do not know if Jack’s summary of what is happening there is correct or not. However, he generally has a pretty good track record and seems to have good sources. He has broken many stories and is usually ahead of the news curve on stuff like this.

It would not surprise me that Iran has taken over much of the national police in Iraq as well as the military because the Iraqi’s who are Shia (about 60% I believe) are aligned with Iran. Iran has stated their desire to drive us from Iraq and the Middle East and our footprint in Iraq is very small - theirs has been growing for years.

Its August - which means its the season for Pedo Joe and his deep-state masters to once again flee a Muslim capital in disgrace.

Is this supposed to be happening now?

I could see our government squashing this story.

So has Biden announced how many millions of refugees he’s going to import from this mess? After all, immigration to the U.S. is now a global entitlement.

Here are more reports coming out.

Notice this is about 1 year from the fall of Afghanistan. This fall of Saigon #3. Number 2 was Afghanistan a year ago and now Iraq.

They are pooping on the rooftop at Bagdad Embassy?

Define “evacuation” and the causality of same for such a headline to blast out. IS the US gov leaving Iraq as part of the Iranian nuke deal=—would not doubt it.

Syria battles occurring on both sides of Syria from both outside forces on the East and West borders. Could pushback agains Western forces by the ISIS reconstituted “fighters” from IRAN be spooking the Iraq junta of the US?

People freaking out because al Sadr announced he’s withdrawing from politics and shutting his offices down.

He has never been anything but trouble, IMO.

There is a helicopter landing zone right on the Embassy compound. Helicopters typically go in and out of there several times a day.

I’m skeptical of any images until I hear from reliable sources.
