Greetings,
I remember that there was a time, right after the toppling of Saddam Hussein and up to now, that Iraq was absolutely dependent on American military equipment. They had to beg the US for weapons and support. For a long time America stalled this support and these weapons whenever it suited their policy goals.
Now Iraq is moving away from American servitude. The government of Iraq has now openly criticized American policy. They have even stated that America is helping ISIS, yet the Western press refused to acknowledge or report on the narrative.
Even when America announced, without consent of approval of the legitimate authorities in Iraq, that they were planning on deploying thousands of troops, the government publicly rebuffed American moves towards further entrenching itself.
