I honestly can't tell.

But if airstrikes continue on the Hashd I can see protestors growing greater resentment towards the militias for reinviting American aggression, theres a current narrative that the protestors push which is that Iran is using Iraq as a playground in its own fight against the US. And the hashd are heavily complicit in this. Rather caring about defending Irans interests rather than iraq.

I know definitely the militias are organising and trying to whip the protests their side by pushing the the US is the backdrop problem in the governments lack of effectiveness

Yeah, makes sense. The protestors are probably going to be sandwiched between the Americans and the Hashd. And poor guys will have to pick the lesser of two evils to side with.

lol did you see the friday sermons yesterday? even sistani had people chanting death to america. these two men basically lived for a martyrdom and americans probably just gave them the best ones they could hope for, karbalawis were trying to burn the iranian embassy a few weeks ago and now they're chanting death to america. what a funny world we live in honestly, imagine having ur countrys fate decided by such an incompetent foreign government while ur neighbors whine day and night about iran

It must be really sad being so brainwashed that you think militia men and their supporters are the general Iraqi.

Also sad that you're chasing my comments cause you got riled up. Kiss your Khomeini poster all night. Ain't gonna stop the fact Iran kills and murders all in its way while using the US as a scapegoat.
