For years there have been rumors in Iraq and the wider Arab world that Iran and the United States have been working together all along, merely pretending to be in conflict for nefarious purposes known only to them. As WORLDMEETS.US has documented on many occasions, these claims run the gamut, from wild conspiracy theories to well thought-out narratives.
In this article from Iraq’s Kitabat newspaper, Mohammed Al-Hasnawi admits to being flummoxed about whether Iran and the U.S. are or are not enemies – and warns that the truth of this relationship must be uncovered before ‘all parties that may be affected’ can choose the right course of action.
“Keen observers of political and military developments since the events of September 11 have concluded that overall, the Americans have favored the Iranian regime, since U.S. military power helped bring down Iran’s enemies What’s the nature of their conflict? How serious is it? Where is the truth???”
