Can you keep track of the events in Iraq? We were told that the war was over and the Iraq was under its own control. But then ISIS established a caliphate in Syria and Iraq. Which led to Iran taking over the Iraqi military. And Obama sending American soldiers to fight in Iraq. And then Congress is sending money to Iraq to form a new battalion under the control of Iran’s IRGC. But the IRGC’s commander-in-chief has been seriously injured. While your pResident decides that patriots are extremists but not Muslims.

Soleimani, 58, who is a member of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s closest circle and a pivotal figure in Iranian military and intelligence, was rushed to hospital in Tehran.
