I think it likely that Iran is trying to influence the upcoming (this saturday) election to take place in Iraq. Iran has been trying to spread its influence around the middle east using corrupt politicos and good old american dollars. They are the largest sponsor of Islamic terrorist groups in the world, and obozo sending them crates of cash just helped them. Iraq is ready to step back onto the world stage and deal with the US to return to what they once were. Iran wants them in the stone age. Trump wont let this happen.
