… Attacks On Joint US-Iraq Military Facilities In Iraq. "The US government believes that Iran is behind a series of increasingly sophisticated rocket attacks on joint US-Iraq military facilities in Iraq, several US officials tell CNN. The attacks have taken place as the US has grown increasingly concerned that Iran may be planning new provocations against US troops and interests in the region. The US military strongly believes Iranian-backed groups inside Iraq are responsible according to a US official with direct knowledge of the recent incidents…" Main page link And there was another rocket attack today ….

We shouldn't be inside Iraq. Even if the story could be believed (and it shouldn't without concrete evidence) then there's even more of a need to get gone from there. |

Not surprising to me at all, and my guess is there's a 99% chance of the report being correct, given past moves by Iran in the region, their rhetoric, and their ability to manufacture and distribute rockets to many throughout the region. A boatload of Iranian rockets going to Yemen were just seized in the last few days. |

How many rockets can $400 USD million in cash buy? Cash that was delivered to Iran by the US in a cargo plane in the middle of the night. Sometimes we are our own worst enemy. |

Or, $1.5 USD+ BILLION? I'm guessing a lot, especially at Iran's devalued currency levels. |
