Iran Haunts Iraqi Protests
(Jerusalem Post) Seth J. Frantzman - Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi has allowed his country's security forces to be pushed aside as members of the Asaib Ahl al-Haq, Badr Organization and Kata'ib Hezbollah militias shoot protesters. More than 250 mainly Shi'ite protesters have been killed and thousands wounded in an organized campaign of oppression. For the protesters, the hidden hand of Iran is behind the attacks. Many videos show security forces and police or soldiers talking to the protesters. That means that it is not the army or police doing the killing.
