Iraqi Shiites Demand Expulsion Of US Troops After Israel Attacks Iran

The Israeli-Iranian War of 2025 has put Iraq in an extremely difficult situation. The country’s Shiite majority sympathizes with Iran and with the Palestinians, and resents Israel’s use of Iraqi airspace to attack their Shiite neighbor.

On Sunday the Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Soudani met with Thomas Seiler, the European Union ambassador to Iraq. Al-Soudani said on that occasion that what he called “the recent Zionist aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran” represents “a direct threat to security and stability in Iraq and the region.” He said Israel’s attack on Iran was intended to disrupt diplomacy and that it flagrantly violated international laws and norms.
