Iraq 'Concerned' as US-Fueled Syria Chaos Nears Border
The New Arab reports Iraq is 'boosting security' after fighting in Aleppo between government forces and the SDF (Syrian Democratic Forces) threatens to spill over. Baghdad, apparently, just now discovered that a country carved up by foreign interventions might have some instability issues. One might wonder why, after a decade of outsourced proxy wars and endless 'freedom fighter' funding, Iraq is
suddenly surprised by border instability. Perhaps Iraq is unaware that the SDF, armed and funded by the very US taxpayers who then conveniently 'express concern' over regional instability, has been a key player in this protracted conflict. (Funny how the 'concerns' usually pop up only when it begins to inconvenience the neighbors, not when the initial chaos was unleashed.) This isn't just
'violence'; it's the predictable blowback from years of external meddling that transforms sovereign nations into playgrounds for geopolitical chess. The irony, as always, is lost on those who bankroll the chaos.
