Crowds chant 'Death to America' at top general's funeral in Baghdad

Iraq's prime minister attended a mourning procession in Baghdad on Saturday for Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani and Iraqi paramilitary chief Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, killed in a US strike the previous day.

The coffins were first brought to a revered Shiite shrine in Baghdad's Kadhimiya district, where thousands of mourners chanted"Death to America." Soleimani was the head of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards' foreign operations arm while Muhandis was the deputy head of Iraq's Hashed al-Shaabi paramilitary network. Their deaths sparked fears of a looming proxy war between Iran and the United States on Iraqi soil, further fanned by a new strike on pro-Iran factions on Saturday.

Top terrorist has gone , the planet is nicer now

Perfect time to use Drone again as they supporters are making real threats so much better if eliminate them before they end up buying more guns from US and its Allies.

“Death to America “ ? never it is a “ proper death for a terrorist “ !

US President Trump has created a timebomb that has not happened since 9/11...Middle East will explode in retaliation and create a situation where US weaponry will not contain it.....

All who attended the funeral are leaders & followers of Iranian militia in Iraq and unfortunately it’s all part of our government including Iraq PM they have controlled Iraq by force weapon & assassinations, increasing poverty & unemployment . the reason of IraqProtests
