US Says It's Not Discussing Withdrawing From Iraq - News From Antiwar.com
Iraq’s government has been under pressure to expel the US since January 2020, when a US drone strike in Baghdad killed Iranian Gen. Qasem Soleimani and PMF leader Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis. After the strike, the Iraqi parliament voted to expel US forces, but the US refused to leave.
Why do we need troops in Iraq when we have an ally like Israel in the area?
I thought the entire point of Israel is that US has a foothold in the region? Why do we have bases in Syria, Iraq, Jordan and Kuwait?
Why have 2 of anything?
Probably something about not having all your eggs in one basket.
Yeah, but after a certain number of baskets, it turns from using baskets to store eggs, to using eggs to mark baskets.
Why have over 800 military bases around the world?
That's my point ... We really don't need israel to be america. Fuck these genocidal savages let them stand on their own after they are done milling off gazans!
Because Israel's interest doesn't align with the US perfectly?
Really? Do you have an example of this?
