TNT:
Ify: Looking forward to Thursday morning!!! just saying...
Eccle519: I don't post much any more but this I do know...Every 100 years history repeats itself and 2020 (like the 1920's) will be roaring with economic explosion including the redemption of all outstanding Dinar notes as planned
JSL: This is not Good News with the Hezbollah supporters in Iraq which is of course the Iranian sector of Iraq, attacking in broad daylight and burning the US Embassy. So I wonder what the geniuses think now about constantly delaying their RV? Although I personally do not believe this is supported by the vast majority of Iraq peoples, it looked like a rather small protest compared to the others, that's why I think it is the Iranian people who are doing this in Iraq
Semperfi101: These are the same Iran snipers who have been killing the protesters and kidnapping them and holding them captive….You think the US and the vast majority of the Iraqi people don’t know this
Annie68: Exactly, semperfi01! Maybe we need a few more targeted strikes in Iran and Syria?
JSL: That is what I think too, probably good that they lost their cool cause now they're exposing themselves, every one of them has been face documented now, may be helpful in the Big Picture
Semperfi101: These particular Iranian protestors are just outing their self’s to the Iraqi people.
JSL: Hope this thing that seems bad .turns into the Best thing ever
OKRocks: DO NOT BE CONFUSED... IRAN MILITIA PROTESTING AND THE IRAQI CITIZENS... DIFFERENT!

Dear Western Media, The US embassy was not set on fire by protestors. This show was put on by Iranian backed militias and their thugs. Protestors remain in public squares across #Iraq demanding the overhaul of a failed system of governance. Get your facts straight please.
