Iran Launches Airstrikes on Iraqi Villages

[Link: www.wired.com…]

In February, American fighter jets shot down an Iranian drone flying over Iraq. Such an incursion would’ve likely provoked an angry response from the previous administration. But the reaction to the drone incident was muted — perhaps in the interest of keeping the dialogue with Tehran going.

Hum?

As much as I hate in any way defending Iran, some of the problem is that the villages being attacked are Kurdish villages being used as bases for the Kurds to attack Iran, something they shouldn’t be doing.
But we (or Iraq) should be stopping the Kurds, not leaving it up to Iran.
