    Sure that’s why the US is invited into middle east countries like Iraq and Jordan where they are attacked.by Iranian stooges from Syria.

      In a statement, it condemned the strikes as a “new aggression against Iraq’s sovereignty” and denied that they were coordinated by the Baghdad government beforehand with Washington, calling such assertions “lies”.

      The presence of the U.S.-led military coalition in the region “has become a reason for threatening security and stability in Iraq and a justification for involving Iraq in regional and international conflicts”, the statement added.

        All they have to do is recend their invitations and tell the US to leave. But, they won’t do that because they don’t want to be under Iran’s heel.

          You sure do talk a lot about this for someone who doesn’t understand the basics. The groups Iran backs in Iraq are there to prop up the current Iraqi regime since they’re afraid of another Sunni leader emerging if the current regime falls. They’re mainly worried about an Islamic State takeover, and Iraq accepts their presence.

          Jordan has a dictator who lied and said the US base that got struck was in Syria instead of Jordan most likely to avoid backlash from the population about the presence of a US base in their borders.

            I understand your agenda, but the fact remains true that they know how to uninvite the US and haven’t done so.

              This is a discussion about what the people who live there want, not what the government does, are we not on the same page here? The fact is the Iraqi PM is facing internal pressure to expel US forces and he is in the process of doing that.

                You want to make it that discussion I understand, but that’s not what it was. Address someone else if that’s what you want to talk about. The fact is that the US was invited into these countries and Iran wasn’t
