Washington's Iraq "Victory" Posted: Tuesday, June 17, 2014 Washington's Iraq "Victory" The citizens of the United States still do not know why their government destroyed Iraq. "National Security" will prevent them from ever knowing. "National Security" is the cloak behind which hides the crimes of the US government. US, UK create joint team to prepare for air strikes in Iraq – report Iraq crisis: West must take up Tehran's offer to block an Isis victory World View: Extremists have a grip on the country as Sunni Muslims decide that the jihadists are preferable to persecution by the official Iraqi army US Considering Talks With Iran on Iraq Security Iraqi, Syrian governments begin joint airstrikes against ISIL The Syrian government has begun coordinated airstrikes with the Iraqi government against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), AFP reports.

Iraq Air Strikes Drive Civilians Into Kurdish Territory US Begins Partial Evacuation of Baghdad Embassy Pentagon Sends More Troops to Secure Embassy Grounds Tony Blair: west must intervene in Iraq Ex-PM says allies should consider military options short of sending troops after denying 2003 invasion led to Isis crisis Obama Laments the Cynicism HE Created America to Watch Entanglement in Iraq's Bloody Saga Shut Off Looms as Ukraine Ends Russia Gas Talks Without a Deal Ukraine Energy Minister Insists Govt Ready for Full Shutoff Kenya attack: gunmen kill at least 48 people Militants struck in coastal town of Mpeketoni while cafes and bars were packed with people watching the World Cup The Battle for Iraq Is a Saudi War on Iran Why the ISIS invasion of Iraq is really a war between Shiites and Sunnis for control of the Middle East. Such a setback for Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has been the dream of Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah for years. He has regarded Maliki as little more than an Iranian stooge, refusing to send an ambassador to Baghdad and instead encouraging his fellow rulers of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) -- Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman -- to take a similar standoff-ish approach. Lavrov: Iraq developments show total failure of American-British 'adventure' The events in Iraq are a result of the actions carried out by the US and the UK, and the situation has spiraled out of control, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told journalists. Major General says going into Iraq was a "gargantuan" mistake we will be dealing with for 50 years A SENIOR military figure says the UK's intervention in Iraq was a "strategic error of gargantuan proportions". 'Iraq chaos is Tony Blair's legacy': Intervention by ex-PM in 2003 destabilised the country and left it open to extremism, says Home Office minister The disaster unfolding in Iraq was branded 'Tony Blair's legacy' last night as Britain ruled out military intervention. Lethal legacy of Iraq crime Aside from the tens of thousands killed directly by Western troops in Operation Shock and Awe or the 2004 destruction of Fallujah, deliberate US policy aimed at dividing opposition to their military blitzkrieg sparked a sectarian war pitting Sunni against Shia which has hardly abated since. Blaming Obama for Iraq's Chaos As Islamic militants gain ground in Iraq, Official Washington's neocons and the mainstream media are blaming President Obama for ending the U.S. military occupation, but they ignore their own role in destabilizing Iraq with the 2003 invasion |
