Following the election of Mustafa al-Kadhimi as Prime
Minister of Iraq, various parties in the country have been at loggerheads over
the expulsion of foreign forces, especially the US military.

Although the Iraqi parliament passed a bill to expel foreign
troops as the Iraqi people consider them occupiers and a threat to their
country's sovereignty, some Iraqi political groups opposed the expulsion of US
troops.

Following the passage of the bill, Iraqi Prime Minister
Mustafa al-Kadhimi and his delegation met Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali
Khamenei during his first official visit to Tehran. He warned Al-Kadhimi about
Iraqi national sovereignty, said: "The Americans killed your guest General
Soleimani in your house and (the US) explicitly admitted this crime. This is
not a small matter."

This statement is a precise and calculated position that underlined
the negative consequences of the assassination of General Soleimani by the United
States on the sovereignty of Iraq and its national security. His remarks came
as not only Iraqi officials but also the Iraqi people are well aware that
General Soleimani and Abu Mahdi al-Mohandes are at the forefront of the fight
against terrorist groups such as ISIS, al-Qaeda and al-Nusra.

In fact, by taking this position, Ayatollah Khamenei exposed
the nature of the American occupation, its law violation mentality and its destructive
presence to the Iraqi people. By his remarks, Khamenei effectively destroy Washington
officials reputation.

Because the US claimed that their military
presence in Iraq was to support the country. But on the other hand, they
assassinate General Qassem Soleimani, which was the number one enemy of ISIS.
The assassination granted a free victory for this sworn enemy of the Iraqi
people. The assassination simply proved that the US created and funded ISIS as
Trump and Hillary Clinton stated
