Looks like the good Iraqi’s trying to establish peace and a unified government are getting fed up with the Iranian backing of Al-Qaeda and the on-going insurgency.
A number of senior Awakening Council officials in Iraq have accused Iran of coordinating aid, including funds, weapons, and training, to Al-Qaeda in Iraq, which is acting to eliminate Awakening leaders.
The officials said, “The tool by which the terror operations were carried out is Al-Qaeda, but the engine is Iran.”
The officials are also demanding that the Iranian ambassador to Iraq be expelled since he is “a direct cause of the crises afflicting the country.”
