Serious consequences: Iranian consulate attacked by protesters in Iraq

Dozens of Iraqi protesters on Sunday evening attacked the Iranian consulate in the holy Shiite city of Karbala. Al-Jazeera reports referring to eyewitnesses that, having destroyed concrete barriers around the building, the crowd tore the flag of the Islamic Republic, replacing it with Iraq.

Police fired into the air to push back protesters who threw stones and burned tires in response.

No casualties were reported during the incident.

All this happens against the backdrop of ongoing unrest in Baghdad and the provinces with a Shiite majority in the south of the state. The protests are directed against the political regime and elite groups established after the 2003 war, which Iraqis accuse of embezzlement of the country's wealth, while the bulk of the population is only getting poorer.

An incident can have diplomatic consequences. Although a large part of the Iraqi population is Shia Muslim, as in Iran, the traditionally hostile relations between Arabs and Persians have a very long history. In addition, Baghdad secretly claims the Iranian province of Khuzestan with a predominantly Arab population, whose territory is rich in oil and gas, as well as a considerable amount of fertile land.

And the protesters do not want to throw their knives into the Amer special forces, what is the protection of the fields?)

[Potato]

They want, but they can’t. American PMCs shoot there without warning. For them, the local population is part of the local fauna, and shooting at it is like hunting or sport.

[knn54]

How can you throw at those who paid for these protests.
After all, the Yankees are able to translate arrows.

[Black_Vatnik]

This is my irony)

[lucul]

And these "protesters" do not speak Hebrew by chance? )))

[Potato]

These protesters are already half-starved, and despite the 21st century, they are deprived of such achievements of civilization and progress as medicine or even the law. For little money they are ready to do any job - even this one. Bandits and the CIA rule in Iraq, and almost nothing happens without their knowledge.

[Mimoxod]

Is it not the direct fault of the US invaders that such a situation in Iraq has persisted for decades and now, not without the help of the CIA and paid provocateurs, the blame is clearly shifted from a sick (USA) head to a healthy and not guilty in the economic situation (Iran) ???

[Potato]

The explicit and direct fault of the West is the deliberate, direct, military destruction of Iraqi statehood since 2003. Everything that has been going on since then is on their conscience.

[Avior]

Recently, these same US occupiers demanded that American troops withdrawn from Syria immediately leave Iraq.

Somehow Maidan smelled in Baghdad.
Do I understand correctly that the ears of the State Department are behind these riots?
To close the "Shiite corridor"?
Or am I conspiring?

Conspiracy theory (from the English conspiracy theory "conspiracy theory"), also known as conspiracy theology (literally: “doctrine (science) about the conspiracy” from the English conspiracy “conspiracy” + other Greek. λόγος “doctrine, science”) is a concept declaring certain socially significant events, certain historical phenomena, or even the course of history as a whole as a result conspiracy on the part of a certain group of people (state in the state, world government), managing this process out of self-interest, ambition or other group, clan and other interests.

You deviate from the correct spelling of this phrase.

[novel66]

Well, are they really sticking out? And what are they ... uninteresting

They stick out everywhere and always, if you haven’t understood yet. From weather forecasts to mobile phone prices. If you thought that the birds poop in flight just like that ... think again. And you will see these ears.

Isn’t it more efficient to get to the government of your country? Well, burn there a bit, shoot well so that finally get down to business? Ahhh, no way ... it’s a puppet-propindian ... after such thinking, you come to certain conclusions ... You say that they say historical dislike? I do not like the same Jews (does not apply to Jews ) and what am I now to smash the Israeli embassy in order to increase salaries and pensions?

[SOVIET UNION 2]

And what's the point of blaming Iran for attacking oil tankers and oil refineries. Then Iran launched 30 nuclear centrifuges. Iran also has oil. More states are guarding cheap oil production in Syria. Even against Iran, some sort of sanctions and arrests of accounts were taken. Why all this? Brownian motion?

Crowd destroying concrete barriers around a building with bare hands? Gnawed probably.

Baghdad secretly claims the Iranian province of Khuzestan with a predominantly Arab population, whose territory is rich in oil and gas, as well as a considerable amount of fertile land.

All because of the grandmother and meanness of the United States. They don’t want to fight, they push others.

[orionvitt]

traditionally hostile relations between Arabs and Persians have a very long

What to say. If Muslims cannot divide Allah and Christians cannot divide Christ (for a thousand years), then what is worth, in general, in this world? Tomorrow the Buddhists will split into three unequal halves. And behind them are the Hindus (almost one and a half billion). It's easier with the Hindus, choose your own god, as you wish, so there, I think, there will be fewer problems. In short, tryndets. This, if not yet taken into account, such "secular" ideologies as Marxism. Where is the world heading? A firm conviction is created that people themselves do not know what they want.

[Alex Justice]

Religion brings peoples only suffering.

"Where is the world heading?" ////

The world is rolling. But not downhill, but like a cart along the unpaved road of evolution. Evolutionarily evolving. Not at the behest of reason, alas, but at the behest of an intricate mixture of instincts, feelings, ego, thoughts, collective ambitions, ideologies.
Hence, there are so many "stumbling blocks". Continuous trips, bumps and breakages.
But getting out of this common cart is impossible ...

Well said)

[midshipman]

Between these countries there was a very cruel and bloody war. I remember the Iranian old people went to certain death in the Iraqi minefields so that the Iranian fighters, passing through the minefields, suffered as little losses as possible. This self-sacrifice of Iranian old people really surprised us then.

[Altai72]

I apologize, you were a witness to these events, or what? So did the old people undermine themselves? Didn’t they find donkeys there or is the life of a donkey more expensive than the life of these miserables?

[voyaka uh]

This was not concealed, but was widely covered in the Iranian media as great feats in the name of victory over "Satan" - the godless regime of Saddam Hussein. Voluntary exploits.
Not only old people, by the way, took part in the "mine clearance", but teenagers 12 years old too.

How scary to live.

[asv363]

Not a conspiracy theorist, but in Iran there are a lot of dishes and frescoes made in shades of yellow-blue. Yesterday, according to the Iranian calendar, there were 13 abans - the official day of the struggle of the Iranian people against world imperialism.
