Prime Minister Scorned By Obama

Two days ago, before it was formalized that the US tacitly, if not
explicitly, now supports the removal of the Iraqi Prime Minister whom it
itself had helped elect, we summarized the geopolitical tensions and “
national interests” in Iraq, which is shaping up to be a proxy war that
makes last year’s Syrian escapade pale by comparison, as follows:
The situation in Iraq, already a jumble of domestic sectarian violence, is
now pitting virtually all major (and regional) international players against
each other as well. There is:
US which tacitly supports Iran intervention in the region, but may have
suddenly cooled in its support of Maliki despite sending naval and troop
forces in the country after partially evacuating its embassy
Saudi Arabia which wants to remain friendly with the US but is antagonistic
to the Iraq regime, is potentially aiding the ISIS forces, and clearly
refuses to allow Iran entrance in Iraq
Iran, which has suddenly become America’s best friend in the region, which
is willing to enter Iraq and protect its holy sites
Syria, whose president is sitting back amused at last year’s failed
campaign by the US to remove him from power, and whose army is at a
stalemate with the local US-armed and funded rebels
Qatar, which is supporting the Syrian rebels, but so far has not made its
stance clear on Iraq. Like Saudi, it too may be indirectly backing ISIS
Jordan, which is a close friend the US, and which may have hosted ISIS in a
secret base on its territory with the US instructing the jihadist group
according to an unconfirmed report
Turkey, which is on constant alert to Kurdish escalation across the border,
the same Kurds which now have far more leverage courtesy of ISIS crushing
the Iraq army in the north and handing over Kurds access to oil fields in
the north.
And of course Russia: because while Putin clearly benefits from rising crude
prices, it is his Lukoil that is developing (and investing vast amounts of
money in) the vast Iraqi West Qurna-2 oil field. It is not clear how he
would feel about it falling into ISIS hands. | b********n
发帖数: 38600 | 2 Look at Maliki and Karzi. We have installed them and then called for their
removal. How many uprisings have we fomented and abandoned? US foreign
policy can change with a single negative headline. Who wants somebody like
that backing you?
Looking at that last two hundred years of US history ,the only constant has
been the doublecross in every commitment. Its amazing that anybody would
deal with.
Uncle Scam,but they do.The Brits were no different, just more subtle. | n***c

, because for all the western, US-led intervention, both Russia and China
are oddly missing from the scene. We expect that to change soon.”
