The chaos in Iraq has been going on for a long time, and this time the situation is out of control because the Iraqi people are dissatisfied with Iran. Since 10, people all over Iraq have held demonstrations to protest against Iraq's high unemployment rate, government corruption and lack of public services. Later, the demonstrators criticized the huge gap between the rich and the poor in China and demanded reform and abolition of the sectarian decentralization system that existed after the Iraq war in 2003. Later, demonstrators protested against Shia-led Iran's interference in their own politics. Demonstrators attacked the residence of dignitaries, burned cars and set fire to the Iranian embassy in Iraq. Violence escalated and at least 4000 people were injured.

However, the Iraqi government is at a loss for this kind of chaos, and the solution has limited effect. It can only watch the situation get out of control and the whole of Iraq fall into chaos.

02. Iraq: the victim of the game between the United States and Iraq.

The Iraqi people's attack on Iran is not impulsive, and Iraq is the chessboard of the game between the United States and Iraq. Li, dean of China Arab Research Institute of Ningxia University, said this:

"In Iraq, both the United States and Iran have important interests and influence."

After the Iraq war, the United States firmly controlled Iraq, but Iran's influence on Iraq should not be underestimated. For the United States, Iraq is the key point of the Middle East hegemony blueprint and an important source of oil. For Iran, Iraq is the second largest foreign market, the driving force of domestic GDP and the link between Shiites. The turmoil in Iraq is, to some extent, a microcosm of the conflict between the United States and Iraq.

The United States and Iran have frequently clashed this year, even rising to the military level to exchange fire. The United States has repeatedly sanctioned Iran. Last year, Trump announced that the United States would withdraw from the nuclear agreement and constantly put pressure on Iran. In this regard, Iraq's position as a neighbor of Iran is of vital importance. Both the United States and Iran want to put their favorite people on the stage as puppets to rule Iraq, so as to safeguard their interests in Iraq to the greatest extent.

Chaos in Iraq

After the war, Iraq implemented a sectarian decentralization system, namely:

The speaker is Sunni, and the president and prime minister are led by Kurds and Shiites respectively.

Iran under the leadership of Shia firmly supports the Shia Revolutionary Guards, while the United States tries to support the leaders of other factions. Coupled with the frequent friction before religion, many contradictions have accumulated in Iraq. So in more than two months, Iraq quickly lost control. In addition, the United States demanded that the Iraqi military cease fire and sent spies to incite the masses, which also accelerated the collapse of the situation in Iraq.
