    This may happen in the near future, but it hasn't happened yet. Be careful with getting your news from people who lie to you.

    Baghdad Bob said there's nothing to see there, and I believe him.

    Your videos are about rioters storming a government building, being led by an influential idiot, sure sounds familiar…

    Probably would have used helicopters if they didn’t have the tunnels.

    An actual news story ... Seems a long way from the city falling, US evacuating and Iran taking over.

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/worl...355e1c-2789-11ed-a90a-fce4015dfc8f_story.html

    The US embassy in Baghdad is NOT being evacuated. My kid was a contractor providing security at the embassy for Dept of State for a few years - a few years ago. It is the largest US embassy and a fortress and manned by a rather large contingent of Marines in addition to the contractors.
    Pure speculation here but with unrest in the Green Zone helicopters might be used to safely transport personnel instead of vehicles.

    But, Kirby said, reports of the U.S. Embassy being under threat are “false.”

    “There’s no evacuation going on at the embassy and no indication that’s going to be required at this time,” Kirby told reporters on a call on Monday.

    Wait, do republicans care about violence in the middle east again? I thought their orange god told them that stuff didn't matter.
