On August 26, an improvised explosive device exploded near the highly-fortified Green Zone in the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, as an Australian diplomatic convoy was passing by.
Despite the explosion, the Australian diplomatic convoy was able to enter the Green Zone. No casualties were reported as a result of the attack.
Two security officials told The Associated Press that the attack took place as Australia’s diplomatic mission in Iraq was making efforts to mediate between influential Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr and a coalition of rival Iran-backed Shiite groups called the Coordination Framework.
The followers al-Sadr and the Coordination Framework have been at odds since last year’s parliamentary elections. Al-Sadr won the largest share of seats in the elections, but failed to form a majority government. This led to one of the worst political crises in Iraq in recent years.

The Iraqi Foreign Ministry condemned the attack on the Australian diplomatic convoy, stressing its commitment to the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations that calls for the protection of all diplomatic missions.
Australia is yet to release a statement on the attack. However, the country’s football association announced its withdrawal from the Under-20 Asian Cup which will be held in the southern Iraqi city of Basra between September 10 and 18, citing security concerns.
No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack, which may have been carried out to inflame the crisis between al-Sadr and the Coordination Framework.
It is the work of al-Sadr “supporters”. Think about it for a sec the “Coordination Framework” couldn’t give a fuk about what Australia tries to do – but the al-Sadr militia loves to put the blame on Iran – “the Coordination Framework”.
The thing is the West love to blame Iran or Iran’s allies in the Middle East as much as they can… Austalia is the child of the UK and the cuck sucker of the USA. Oh boy, I wonder who they going to blame without ANY evidence.
You can tell who benefits from this fake attack, the “coordination Framework” or al-Sadr?
Look what Sadr is going in Iraq – he is like a frog jumping and yelling only that he can do better but he has done nothing.
Sadrist Movement: “Its goal is a society ordered by a combination of religious laws and tribal customs.” As if, as if he could do that or his party – just know in his party he got the support of some Shia, the Kurds, and Sunnis. HE FUKING NEED BOTH THE KURDS AND SUNNIS or he can’t do shit. For a sec think how fuk Iraq would be by having his party running the country. The Kurds cry about Turk-isis – Sunnis cry about Shia and those Shia who support him going to STFU and do nothing.
“After fresh protests in October were met with resistance by the government, Sadr called on Sairoon to boycott parliament and urged the government to resign and hold early elections. By January 2020, however, he had withdrawn his support for the anti-government protests.”
“In June 2022, after months of stalemate in forming a government, Sadr called on his movement to resign from parliament. Although his rationale was to remove his movement as an obstacle to the formation of a government, the resignation raised concerns that his supporters would again register their opposition to the government through popular protests instead of through a representative political process.”
There is so much more to him and you can go down the rabbit hole but he can’t achieve anything.
Remember Iraq under Saddam? He used force, he wasn’t smart or loved by his people – he was a moron.
The bigger ethnic group should have the power and protect the smaller ethnic groups within the country. But you face a lot of problems if you have smaller ethnic groups running the country. Religion plays a role as well in a government.
The Kurds and Sunnis should never be the shot caller in Iraq – Kurds support Zionism and Yanuqis (They fight Turkey by their terrorist groups PKK and YPG). What would Turkey do? <- that is a problem by having Kurds in your party.
Sunnis in Iraq still don't see eye to eye with the Shia or the Kurds. They do anything in their power to undermine Shia and Kurds. They "support" Sadr because he is the only one willing to give them some room. They coping, matter of fact Sdar party is coping.
Racist Australian war criminal boot lickers doing their American masters message service in Iraq. 99% of ignorant Aussies could not find Iraq on a illuminated map. They are doing slave work for the US loser warmongers who are stealing Iraqi oil.
Again, “Muqtada al-Sadr’s followers occupied the building after the influential Shi’ite cleric announced his retirement from politics”.
“Al-Sadr claimed that al-Haeri’s resignation was “not of his own volition,” seemingly implying covert Iranian influence.”
DO YOU SEE what is he doing?
If you didn’t know, he wants to work with Zionists and yanquis (West). From the start, everyone knew he couldn’t get in power…he never prove he could in the first place, and Zionists and yanquis used him to the end. Kurds in Iraq NEVER dare to undermine the US and Sunnis allied themselves with yanquis and what do you know Sadr had the support of BOTH groups.
He is lying like Zionists, watch him come back in a few years’ time from his “retirement”.
At least they try, which is more then you can say for any resistance in the West.
All Western diplomats are tools of Zionism, so it would have been good if they died!
ALBO NEEDS TO ADHERE TO MUCH NEEDED REFORMS INSTEAD OF HIKING UP THE COST OF EVERYTHING FOR ITS HOMOSEXUAL ASKENAZI MASTERS,HARDEN THE FUK UP AUSTRALIA,GET OUT OF THE MIDDLE EAST,BEFORE YOU DIE FROM FEAR OR UTTER STUPIDITY WHICHEVER COMES FIRST?
Looks like self-inflicted hype to me.
A spit in one of Gorgon’s scaly five eyes is always good. Next time poke it deeper.
