Under Biden, the Middle East is as turbulent as ever, with the Islamic State rising once again in Iraq and rogue Iran viewing a Biden administration as a pushover. Bad news for Western interests, and it’s likely to get worse.
“High-level Iraqi delegation in Iran to talk trade, Soleimani,” by Maziar Motamedi, Al Jazeera, February 3, 2021:
Tehran, Iran – Iraq’s foreign minister, Fuad Hussein, has held high-level talks with Iranian officials with justice for the American assassination of Iran’s top general a major point of discussion.
Iran requested the international police organisation to arrest former US President Donald Trump and 47 other American officials identified as playing a role in the killing of General Qassem Soleimani last year in a US drone attack near Baghdad’s airport.
Hussein and his delegation met with Iran’s Foreign Affairs Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, who also welcomed the formation of a joint economic cooperation commission as they discussed improving economic and political ties.
According to the foreign ministry, Zarif said he hopes the two countries could implement agreements on banking, industrial cities, border marketplaces, transit, and Iraqi debts to Iran that were finalised when Iranian President Hassan Rouhani travelled to Iraq in March 2019.
The neighbouring countries’ ties have been affected by the Soleimani killing in Iraq and harsh United States sanctions imposed in 2018 on Iran after Trump unilaterally abandoned Iran’s 2015 nuclear deal with world powers.
Hussein’s trip to Tehran is his first since US President Joe Biden’s administration took power and promised to restore the nuclear deal.
Hussein led a delegation to Iran in late September 2020, which agreed to form the joint economic commission and boost bilateral relations….

General Soleimani was engaged in acts of aggressive war and sabotage against US troops and the US embassy. He was in Iraq on a military mission. The US was listening to the military ‘chatter’ and was aware of Soleimani’s plans. Gen. Soleimani was thus a valid military target since he was engaged in a military operation against the United States.
James Lincoln says
Yes, mortimer .
Gen. Soleimani was a valid military target…

Everything you say is true, however the truth does not matter in our now inverted world. President Trump would be wise not to leave the United States.
Infidel says
The scary thing is that Biden/Blinken would happily extradite Trump to Iraq if they were asked. It would also fulfil their goals of making sure that he can’t run again, since the ‘impeachment’ next week ain’t gonna work
Dan says
What else can we expect from a bunch of lying, cheating, thieving, rat faced, immoral, power-mad psychotic, hypocritical weasels who literally kill their own babies in order to further their agendas and consolidate position in the “Great Reset’s” new world order?
Or was I being too vague?
Artist says
not too vague at all but you omitted “pedophiles” after the word hypocritical.
Eleanor says
I thought the very same thing, Infidel. However of course they won’t, only because they know it would be Civil War not just Capitol War, they’d be dealing with.
Infidel says
Eleanor, I think they’re stupid enough to risk it, given how the Democrats have morphed into a modern US Communist Party. I doubt that even the old CPUSA was as leftist as these clowns
Walter Sieruk says
The harsh reality is that Soleimani was a very vicious and dangerous man. Therefore it was appropriate and necessary that he was eliminated.

Lets just cut the $1 billion in aid we give Iraq and call it a day.

Nothing good will happen unless and until a Republican President is elected in 2024. The United States is now under the control of enemy forces.
James Lincoln says
Terry,
It can only happen if all of the recommendations from the following report are put into place:
“Report of the Commission on Federal Election Reform September 20, 2005”

With respect. All that needs to happen is for the Democrats to abolish closure. Have you read this article by Lee Smith? I think it describes the election and the current situation. The American Left have united with the Corporate Globalists and Communist China. All 3 are totalitarian and fascist. All 3 are also currently aligned with Islam. Concern about Islam is however a trifle as compared with the tripartite alliance. In due course the communist Chinese will deal with Islam.

Iraq’s foreign minister enters talks with Iran to bring charges against Trump over killing of Soleimani
…………..
No doubt these thugs are hoping that Biden will oblige them…
OLD GUY says
If Biden brings charges against Trump for the killing of Soleimani, then he and Obama will be libel for the killing of Osama and others.
Infidel says
Well, Biden can claim that he opposed the killing of Osama, and throw Obama under the bus ?
Walter Sieruk says
Those talks from the officials that “mullah tyranny” of Iran with Iraq officials about bringing charges against Donald Trump for death of Soleimani is nonsense . For then citizen Trump was President he shown wisdom “taking out” that murderous warlord chief Soleimani.
