The bombings never end.  That's because the war never ended.  And that's why 'apologists' like FAIR print articles about how the Iraq War is over -- this one in 2013, for example, people push back:

The American War in Iraq is not over. People are still dying in Iraq because of the illegal American invasion.
The European Empires (including the USA) have ruled by the principle of “divide and conquer”. They exploit existing divisions in countries like Iraq, or they create divisions in countries like “South Vietnam”. Civil wars often follow independence from an European Empire: Nigeria, India, Rwanda, Yugoslavia, Palestine/Israel, Lebanon/Syria, and of course Iraq (The American War in Vietnam was a continuation of a colonial war after the French Empire in Indochina collapsed).
American incessant intervention across the globe has been turning this country into that military/industrial/congressional complex that General Dwight Eisenhower had warned us about. Think of how much health care we could provide with the funds from war machines like aircraft carriers and ballistic submarines and fighter jet programs et cetera.
After WWII the Germans and Japanese learned their lessons well.
What have Americans learned after their “victory” over the Soviet Empire?


The war continues.


  1. One of the leaders of the Iraqi Shiite forces was killed south of Iraq


Again, the war goes on. 

And the government of Iraq, a puppet government, remains unanswerable to the citizens of Iraq.


  1. Baghdad still doesn’t have electricity & they’re out here building a stadium. Iraq is a prime example of a corrupt government ran by a bunch of dumb imbeciles


Meanwhile, last night we noted how the US media was ignoring US President Donald Trump's remarks on Iraq in order to dish and gossip.  MIDDLE EAST MONITOR reposts ANADOLU AGENCY's "Trump admits failure of US policies in Syria, Iraq."
