Iran’s Dominance Over Iraq Could Be Coming to an End

Iran Focus

London, 2 Aug – The Iranian Regime dominates its neighbour Iraq in almost every way and is unwilling to surrender this power, but could Iraq evict them with help from the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC)?

Abdulrahman al-Rashed, the former General Manager of Al Arabiya News Channel, wrote an op-ed on Al Arabiya in which he assessed that Iraq, which is an oil –rich country, is more than capable of restoring its powers if the Iraqi nationalists work together and that it is in the interests of the GCC to support Iraqi independence.

He failed. Over 100,000 people turned up to support the Iranian people’s call for freedom.

Three weeks later, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei sent his close relative and advisor, Kamal Kharrazi, who was involved in a failed 2003 plot to discredit the resistance group the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (MEK/PMOI), to denounce the MEK/PMOI as “a terrorist group that murdered thousands of ordinary citizens in Iran”.
