The Spin

Establishment-critical narrative

Prime Minister al-Sudani has properly sought to free Iraqi territory of any foreign military presence since his first day in office, even agreeing to work together with the US to find viable options to achieve that goal. In the wake of the unauthorized drone strike that martyrized Abu Taqwa, it has become more clear than ever that the once helpful coalition forces have turned into a threat to Iraq's sovereignty.

Iraqi News Agency

Pro-establishment narrative

It would be unwise for the Iraqi government to push for the removal of the international coalition forces from the country exactly when the now shadowy and weakened IS has indicated through two deadly attacks in Iran that it is seeking to restore its power and relevance in the Middle East. Iraq shouldn't turn away support from the very coalition that subdued the terror group some years ago.
