In an interview Tuesday, Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein said that Iraq has been unable to verify Iranian claims about an Israeli base in Irbil, and that Iran has yet to provide “tangible” evidence to justify the March missile strike.
On March 13, Iran fired 12 ballistic missiles in an area of Irbil, Kurdistan, claiming it was the center of a “Zionist conspiracy.” Iranian officials added that this was tied to attempted sabotage attacks inside Iranian territory.
This issue remains important because this week, Iran launched artillery fire at Irbil on claims of terrorists operating out of the city. Details of what is being claimed in this new strike are still emerging, though it appears related to Iran reportedly arresting saboteurs on the Iran-Iraq border.
Iraq has trouble with cross-border attacks, with Turkey in the midst of an offensive in Iraqi Kurdistan, and Iraq clearly looking to avoid Iran striking that area as well.
What evidence USA gave about WMDs when they invaded, no “liberated” Iraq?
In other word,two wrongs make a right.
One wrong committed by Zionist USA is right.
A better comparison would have been Israel’s weekly attacks on Syria. Can’t wait to hear Washington’s hypocritical response to Iran’s strike.
You will have to wait etrnally
Oh come on , they made up lots and lots of evidence.
Under the Wilsonian principle of self-determination there should have been created a Kurdistan after WW1. When it turned out that Mosul (oil!) would be in Kurdistan Lloyd George nixed it.
I kinda believe the Iranians on this one.
Iranian aggression.
