Loading ...Apparently there will be a vote held in Baghdad (assuming by their leadership) as to whether they want the U.S. to stay in country or go. If they want us to go, our troops will likely be withdrawn and moved to Kuwait – this according to Retired Lt. General Boykin this am on FOX News. Boykin was highly respected and in charge of Delta Force.
I’m half wondering if Trump already knows our time in Iraq is limited and he’s taking his best shot at weakening Iran’s position, before we leave. Clearly he is sending more troops in the short term, but knowing him, I’d think if Iraqi leadership asks him to leave, he’ll do it and say “see, I did the best I could, they don’t want our help.”
This may be his version of cleaning house before he leaves, all of course depending on the severity of any Iranian response.
Just my thoughts and open for any criticism… 🙂
