About this episode
On New Year’s Eve, the US Embassy in Baghdad was set on fire by Iraqi protesters. This was in response to the US killing 25 members of Kata’ib Hezbollah, a Shia militia which is pro government. Today we break down what led to this and what actually happened.
IMPORTANT NOTICE – This was recorded before the US killed Suleimani in response to the riots. Regardless, this episode will give you more context on the political situation in Iraq and Iran.
