The de facto ruler of the Iraqi Shiites

Issam Khoury published a Policy paper entitled The de facto ruler of the Iraqi Shiites, on Nov 2022. The text analyzes the dynamics of relations between Iraqi Islamists and Iran.

Al-Sadr and the United States are not consensual, but in politics, there is nothing impossible. Therefore, if Washington and Israel are serious in their efforts to dwarf Iranian expansion in the Arab region, they should support the Arab countries against Tehran with intelligence and logistics, in order to provide Al-Sadr with what enables him to eliminate his opponents and restore the Shiites Iraqis for the Iraqi identity, and this matter is met with thirst by all Iraqis who have realized that the Iranian project in Iraq is a subversive project and cannot become a development project.
