USA hit Iran-Syria Feb 3, 2019 - US warplanes strike Iran IRGC Al Qods headquarters near Deir ez-Zour on the Syrian-Iraqi border. 3 Iran missiles were poised to strike the big US Ain Al Assad air base in Anbar, Iraq. US intelligence also here. They were discovered in time by Iraqi security. Iran crossed a red line. President Donald Trump stressed the importance of maintaining US forces in Iraq. www.debka.com/us-air-bombardment-of-iranian-sites-on-syrian-iraqi-border-reprisal-for-irans-bid-to-attack-us-base-in-iraqIts as if Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and Iran are almost one entity, which is clearly Iran's goal.

Kurd units in Iraq military April 3, 2019 - Iraq to integrate Kurd units into their military in the latest sign of warming ties between Baghdad and Erbil. www.al-monitor.com/pulse/originals/2019/04/iraq-kurdistan-region-peshmerga-fighters-setback-pentagon.html This is GOOD NEWS!Iraq history distorted April 8, 2019 - What really happened in Iraq prior to the Gulf War? Iraq former ruler Saddam Hussein’s granddaughter, Hareer Hussein Kamel, has a new book to set the record straight about her family. The history of Iraq has been largely misrepresented. People have discredited her family. Saddam Hussein ruled Iraq 25 years until he was toppled by USA in 2003 and executed. He was accused of numerous human rights violations during his tenure. The US claimed Iraq had weapons of mass destruction and ties with Al-Qaeda. Both allegations were later proven false. www.rt.com/news/455844-saddam-hussein-granddaughter-remarksUSA was fed horror stories of Saddam's sons throwing people into wood chippers, and rape rooms. Now that we have found out about what they call deepstate, I start to question everything we were told. Saddam did keep Iraq together, and kept Iran from taking it over. Saddam should NOT have gassed the Kurds, but rather employed them in the Iraqi militias. Or did deepstate do that, not Saddam?
