What a peaceful religion, LaTonya
Trump made insurrection cool again.
Ahhh the religion of peace
0:05 looks like a MG 42 or at the least, a MG 3.
Sadr is a great man.
Cristo es rey cristo es rey
That part of the world was a little more stable before Biden killed our troops and left the weapons in the afghan desert for the taliban.
He started it. And i'm pretty sure he's not sorry. He incited the chaos. Remind you of anyone in particular?
Religion of peace😂
When are these people in Iraq that are fighting going to realize they are only tearing apart their own country they're not helping but hurting by fighting and killing one another they are so ignorant and wicked somebody needs to let them know people need to learn to get along despite their differences to help better their self and their own countries how ridiculous and shameful to hear of such tyranny fueled by such hatred
I would quit if I was working over there. God forbid if one of them gets kidnapped. You know they will never be seen again. Our track record isn't looking too good when it comes to getting our people out
This is insanity.
Protest doesn't need RPG ???
OR MACHINE GUN AT CROWD.
Coming to America
We are witnessing the result of the Saddam Hussein toppling by the US, I mean the "bringing of democracy".
This is what Detroit and Chicago would be like if they had rpg's .
I have no problem with these 'people' eliminating each other. Evolution at work 🤣
Al Sadr the fake Shia glad he’s gone
We were hunting AL Sadr while I was in Iraq… he was more public but more slippery than Bin Ladin
Words are meaning less if your actions don't fallow some apology
Thank You Julie😁you blink like the best of them👎
I am Polish American from Washington DC I know Iraqi people love Polish people. We did build in Iraq in 1970-1991 power plants, bakeries' modern hi ways schools, infrastructure itd.
Iraqi student did study in Poland engeniering shipping and airplanes industry and some married Polish wifes, I have contact with old times from Poland they use to work in Iraq helping and building and saving hard earned money for families in Poland 1970-1991
The US has caused more murder, death and chaos all over the world,
Violence is all they know.
So basically just a normal day in Baghdad then?
The people in these comments can’t be serious… this isn’t about religion. This is about governments trying to turn people against each other. They made them come out to protest and then murdered them. Then they’re gonna say it’s “Shia” and the other half is gonna say “it’s sunnah” so then they can turn against each other. And that will only be a distraction so Iran can come into Iraq (either way they are already controlling their government) and America will be pleased to hear this news!
Strange times we're living in and they're going to get a whole lot stranger and difficult…
Looks like the TFG/GOP took a page from this guys ways of manipulating mass uneducated people. Can’t wait till the PoS is thrown in prison.
War never gets old but the fashion trend changes.
What Americans are traveling to Iraq? lol,
THIS IS THE WORK OF THE DEVIL YOU HAVE HATE IN YOUR HEART
you are so easy to fool
Your children and grandchildren will enjoy the destruction of your country since the fall of Saddam's government, which until now the world has not been able to prove the existence of chemical weapons as alleged by the USA and its allies.
Im from greece sorry my english bad
I'm surprised nobody has dropped a nuclear bomb yet in this world. If there was a god, he must've enjoyed watching the religious wars
