An Iraqi analyst said the United States and some domestic political groups in Iraq are working to oust al-Hashdal al-Shaabi inside and outside Iraq.
Mohammed Karim al-Saadi, an Iraqi political analyst, said the Iraqi government was not on the side of al-Hashdal al-Shaabi, especially in terms of terminating contracts, and that some pro-terrorism parties were propagandizing against the resistance.
He told Al-Ma’louma website that a political conspiracy was being carried out by the United States to overcome al-Hashdal al-Shaabi and the group’s notoriety inside and outside Iraq.
Al-Saedi added, “The media affiliated with some pro-terrorism political groups have started broadcasting and presenting programs against al-Hashdal al-Shaabi to take over the media space.
The government is also one of the first parties to fall short of al-Hashdal al-Shaabi; “Especially in the case of terminated contracts, the issue is presented in a different way, while a large budget has been allocated to al-Hashdal al-Shaabi and the situation remains unclear, and the government does not give a clear answer to this issue.”
In this regard, Abdul Amir Tayban al-Dubai, a representative of the Iraqi parliamentary faction Al-Sadiqun, announced that the US Embassy in Baghdad had prepared a list of commanders of the Al-Hashd al-Shabi organization and resistance groups to target them.
“This will sometimes be done through cleansing and assassination, and sometimes by detaining them,” Taeban said, stressing that the US embassy has become the source of all Iraq’s problems and crises.
