Iraq
Kurdish fear of ''open war'' between the U.S and Iraqi paramilitary factions
2021-07-14
[SHAFAQ] The head of the Kurdistan Islamic Group bloc in the Iraqi parliament, Salim Hamza, hinted at concerns of an "open war" between the U.S. and Iraqi armed factions.

Hamza told Shafaq News Agency, "the military escalation between the armed factions and the Americans will have an impact on the security situation in Iraq in general, and this effect will certainly have an impact on the issue of holding early parliamentary elections on time."

"The parliamentary elections require calm and security stability. This military escalation between the factions and the Americans creates many security problems. There is political and popular fear of the 'open war' between the factions and the Americans because of its many negative effects on the political and electoral situation."

#2  Oh goody, another new war. Just what we need. After Afghanistan, they're used to being at war all the time and are going to keep trying to start new ones. The idea of being at peace is dead as Dillinger.
