We should not forget that Najaf and Karbala has been infiltrated by the Farsi Wilayat al-Faqih Mullah regime in the past 40 years. They have been waiting for the death of Al-Sistani to put their own Grand Ayatollah in power so that a new figure can toy their demonic/cancerous party line.
This video is from almost 10 years ago. You can imagine how worse the situation has become since then.
Even though Al-Sistani is an Iranian Arab, born in Iran, his loyalty is to Iraq, as he has proven time and time again. While I don't share his ideology, he is not a problem compared to the Wilayat al-Faqih Mullah installed drones.
In reality Shia Islam was always dominated by Shia Arabs and Karbala and Najaf remain Arab cities so this should remain the case ideally. Qom was nothing just 40 years ago, now they have invented a new holy site out of nowhere that they are trying to rival Najaf and Karbala with.
That is why indigenous pro-Iraqi Shia Arab clerics are at odds with the Wilayat al-Faqih Mullah founded ones.
If somehow those Wilayat al-Faqih Mullah drones manage to chase the Americans away from Iraq (I doubt that they are going to leave anyway but they might apply pressure), Iraqi institutions will be further infiltrated and the Mullah's will have an even larger grip.
Given the rumors of the same Mullah terrorist fifth columns wanting to remove Iraqi patriots in the military, parliament (the few that exist in that useless parliament), prior to the attack yesterday, this is their plan to this day if they will be allowed to do so.
As we say, the Iraqi masses that curse those fifth columns, Mullahs and terrorists, have no power to oppose them and they will be gunned down like cattle as we witnessed with the 500 martyrs in recent months, mostly young frustrated Iraqi Shia Arab youth.
All due to the idiotic foolishness of the Americans. The Mullah's could not do jackshit against Iraq for 34 years, other than getting a bloody nose, and the dumb Americans gave Iraq on a plate to them. Luckily after 16 miserable years, the tide looks to be turning and there is no going back now with the youth.
Given the institutional problems, rapid population growth, lack of basic services such as electricity during the summer heat, diminishing water levels, smaller role of oil/gas in the future, massive corruption, the Iraqi people will no longer tolerate the status quo for much longer.
You know things are bad when the same Mullah lot have been reaching out to KSA and sending their people to KSA and talked about cooperation. I obviously welcomed that, always will be, but that has more to do with Iraq as a country and Iraqis as a people, rather than those corrupt fifth columns, traitors and terrorists.
EDIT: While I was 100% sure that Iraqi patriots had a finger in the successful assassinations of those foreign terrorists, recent events have proven this once again. Which is fantastic news to but it bluntly and gives hope of a brighter future.
