After Washington assassinated the Iranian General Qassem Soleimani and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the Vice Commander of the Iraqi People's Mobilization Units, in January 2020, the Iranian Parliament approved a bill calling for the withdrawal of all foreign troops. But how did the US government react to this? - www.kla.tv/17751
After Washington assassinated the Iranian General Qasem Soleimani and the Deputy Commander of the Iraqi People's Mobilization Units, Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis in January 2020, there is a heavy anti US atmosphere in Iraq. Since the Iraqi parliament disapproves of US interference, a draft legislation was unanimously approved on January 5th, calling for the immediate and complete withdrawal of all foreign troops. The U.S. government did not respond to it, but announced that it would slowly and only partially withdraw its forces from Iraq. Iraqi resistance groups responded by attacking the Taji military base, which is occupied by U.S. forces, with at least three Katyusha missiles in July 2020. There were also two explosions at the "Tikrit Air Academy" in the Iraqi province of Salaheddin. Over the past months, dozens of missile and mortar attacks have also hit the bases occupied by the US led coalition forces or landed near the US embassy in Baghdad. Presumably there will be no peace in Iraq until the occupiers who invaded without a UN mandate - thus illegally - have finally withdrawn and the country is allowed to administer itself again according to the UN Charter.
