Missiles Hit Iraq’s Erbil As US & Iraq Blame Iran| Target US
Consulate or 'Secret Israeli Bases'?
--- Quote ---
> At least 12 missiles were fired toward the US consulate in
Iraq’s northern city of Erbil on March 13. US and Iraqi
officials claim that the missiles were launched from the
neighbouring country Iran. US State Department called the
strikes an “outrageous attack” but said there were no casualties
or damage to US facilities. However, Kurdistan counter-terrorism
unit said that the missile strikes from Iran caused some
material damage. Iranian state media reported that “secret
Israeli bases” had been targeted in the attack.

Iraq's lost generation | DW Documentary
--- Quote ---
> There are tens of thousands of "children of IS”, whose
families pledged allegiance to the self-proclaimed caliphate.
They’re now stigmatized, and their existence is not legally
recognized in "Post-IS” Iraq.
>
> Without identification documents, they have no access to
medical care, food aid, or education. This unprecedented
investigation gives a voice to these children, the social
outcasts of a new Iraq, whom only a handful of NGOs are trying
to help. The filmmakers journey to war-torn areas around the
Mosul area, Iraqi Kurdistan and Northeastern Syria, to meet a
generation who endured the reign of the "Islamic State” and a
violent war for liberation, and are now seeking a future as they
balance resilience with a desire for revenge.

Iraq On The Boil l 30 Killed In Violence, President Palace
Stormed As Muqtada Sadr Quits Politics
--- Quote ---
> At least 30 people were killed after deadly clashes rocked
Baghdad over popular Shia leader Al-Sadr’s retirement from
politics. Reports say that 700 people were wounded, including
110 members of the security forces. Sadr’s supporters, who had
been staging a weeks-long sit-in at parliament in Baghdad,
stormed into the presidential palace. Violence erupted after
Sadr’s supporters clashed with Iraqi security forces in an
attempt to enter the palace. Iraq’s state news agency reported
that Al-Sadr announced a hunger strike until the violence and
use of weapons stops. The UN has issued a statement saying that
“the very survival of the Iraqi State is at stake”. Iraqi
political leader Moqtada al-Sadr is Iraq’s most influential Shia
leader, with millions of followers. Analysts describe the
turmoil kindled by Sadr as one of the most potentially
destabilising developments in the last two decades.

In a relativist society it's easier for criminal politicians to
get away with their crimes and not be held accountable.
Relativist society's are the most morally inferior because
crimes that go unpunished are more likely to be committed again.
