As-Sadr is a leading Shi’ite cleric. The Iranian mullahs are behind any threat to the U.S. embassy. But nothing will stop OId Joe’s handlers from pursuing their policy of appeasement of Iran.
“BREAKING: Rioters storm Presidential Palace in Baghdad, US Embassy threatened,” by Libby Emmons and Jack Posobiec, Post Millennial, August 29, 2022:
It was reported on Monday that the Presidential Palace in Baghdad, Iraq was breached, and that the US embassy was reportedly evacuated. Helicopters could be seen on the roof of the embassy.
Muqtada al Sadr announced on Monday that he was leaving politics, spurring Shiites to riot and breach the presidential palace. Al Sadr is their biggest political leader in Iraq and once led militias during the war. “I hereby announce my final withdrawal,” al-Sadr said.
A riot broke out inside the Presidential Palace as people stormed in and law enforcement attempted to hold them back.
US embassy employees could be seen leaving the embassy, and evacuating the Green Zone, via helicopter.
It was in the wake of this announcement that al Sadr’s supporters stormed the palace, which is inside Baghdad’s fortified Green Zone containing government buildings. Barriers were pulled down under the force of hundreds of people who used ropes to breach the barricades.
Once inside, they “rushed into its lavish salons and marbled halls, a key meeting place for Iraqi heads of state and foreign dignitaries,” Al Jazeera reports….

Awesome. So just like the war in Afghanistan was completely undone, now it’s Iraq’s turn. Maybe the US should shut down all its embassies in muslim countries to avoid such scenes?

An “insurrection”?

The left does hate Donald Trump with a passion. This is a reflection of the Leftist/Islamic alliance. As for the Islamic part, not that many years ago the President Trump put that America and Israel hating “mullah regime” of Iran in its place.
In contrast, Joe Biden with his so called “agreement deal” with that hostile Islamic tyranny of Iran is, very much a “disaster” as well as an horrendous catastrophe and also an outright hoax. Anyone who can’t see that it’s a calamity either is wearing his or her politically correct blinders or is an anti-America and anti-Israel subversive. For that hoax of a deal that Joe Biden that made with that hostile ant-America Islamic tyranny of Iran exposes just how horrendously terribly treasonous Biden actually is.
For Biden is either an incompetent feeble -minded fool or a traitorous treasonous villain. Which even the case with him, Biden by giving away everything to those tyrants of that Islamic regime of Iran who such spiteful enemies of the United States that they publicly refer to her as “the Great Satan.” Likewise, they brainwash and then incite the Iranian people to chant, over and over again “Death to America” reveals much about the sinister and insidious character of subversive creepy old Joe.
Therefore, Biden by appeasing supporting and further upholding that anti-American vicious and hostile “mullah regime” has to be a very evil, un-American very despicable and dangerous man.
