The Ghost of John Kerry Lingers

Yeah, we should really stop doing stupid things that prop up Iranian influence inside Iraq:

U.S. officials acknowledged Iranian-backed forces in Iraq could be using American-made arms, an admission that comes amid growing concern on Capitol Hill the U.S. government is quietly working with militia fighters in Iraq who are directly tied to the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), according to multiple sources familiar with the situation.

This is where a face palm emoji would go.

This practice began in the Obama administration and the State Department is still doing it.

This is nuts. We should not be helping Iran with the equivalent of more pallets of cash to carry out policies that hurt us.

Inconceivable. Yeah, I know.
