• Tuesday's attack on American embassy in Baghdad by Iran-backedprotesters

Right now, while you're totally obsessed with really important news
like the latest Pelosi quote, there's a major attack going on by
Iran-backed protesters in Baghdad, Iraq, attacking the American
embassy.

Apparently the embassy has not yet been evacuated, although the
American ambassador to Iraq is not present.

As I wrote in today's article, this kind of thing is fully in Iran's
playbook, trying to repeat the success of the 1979 civil war in
uniting Iranians behind the clerics by attacking the American embassy
in Tehran, causing the "Iranian Hostage Crisis."

However, this will fail for the reasons that I've explained in many
articles -- what works in a generational Crisis era (1979) fails in a
generation Awakening or Unraveling era (today).

The Iraqi armed forces are supposed to be protecting the American
embassy.  Events are developing.

Uh, sounds like some sort of Shiite payback to me. Btw, I think the 1979 hostage situation was due to the US./UK coup in 1953.  The US should just fucking leave the Mideast. We've trashed the place enough already and I'd reckon lots of folks there just totally hate us.
