Iraq?

Checked out a map of the Middle East, thinking Israel and Iran were door to door.
Not so, Iraq lies between.

Now how does Iraq feel about Israeli warplanes flying overhead to Iran, and missiles flying in both directions?

Note the date on this.

Map shows possible flight paths of planes if Israel wanted to attack Iran at some future date - that date being NOW.

Trump isn't helping.

History of the area is muddy.
The future, even more so.
