#BREAKING
Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi has reportedly ordered the closure of armed militias HQs in cities across Iraq.

My take:
Considering the fact that nearly (if not) all Iraqi militia groups are funded by #Iran, this is quite a significant development.

#BREAKING
Iraqi PM orders closure of all pro-Iran Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) offices.
This comes after WSJ cited U.S. officials accusing Tehran-backed militia groups of launching a drone attack targeting Saudi oil facilities from Iraq.
wsj.com/articles/u-s-s…
-Iranian IRGC Quds Force chief Qassem Suleimani (R) has very close relations to PMF commander Hadi al-Ameri.
-Abu Mahdi al-Muhandi is al-Ameri's deputy, seen also shaking hands with the "moderate" Hassan Rouhani.

So ...

■ Obama never would do anything to hinder #Iran, let alone strike directly

■ Even on PJW's terms, Trump can hardly claim credit for sparing people from orders he gave, BUT

■ Trump never gave orders to attack; this is messaging in search of a summit and "better deal"
DoD prepared contingencies for strikes on #Iran, and Trump turned them down when asked for approval.

Some officials got the impression on the day Trump supported strikes, but in the middle of that day he also said Iran's attack could be an "accident". washingtonpost.com/politics/i-sto…
Note: nothing got past the planning stage.

Trump never gave an order to attack #Iran that was revoked.

The administration's spinning it that way in the aftermath via the controlled leak is part of the attempt to gain leverage without actually doing anything to get to new talks.

#SUICIDE
DOES IFA ENCOURAGES SUICIDE???

From the below write-up, I can CAPITALLY say 'NO' to the above question. Read what Ifa says about suicide 👇👇👇

Ifá ní;Tí o bá ní tì ẹ pọ̀ lápọ̀jù,
Tí ó bá gbọ́ tọmọ ẹlòmíràn wa dúpẹ́ dúpẹ́,
Thread
Adífá fún Àràǹdẹ̀dẹ̀ tí ń lọ sí mọ̀run Àìkú,

Ó sì gbẹ́bọ níbẹ̀ ó rúbọ,
Ǹjẹ́ Àràǹdẹ̀dẹ̀ mọ́mọ̀ so!
Àràǹdẹ̀dẹ̀ mọ́mọ̀ so!!
Iré kù níwájú ó, Ire kù lẹ́yìn,
Àràǹdẹ̀dẹ̀ mọ́mọ̀ so.

Ifá says:If you say your life situation is too much to bear,
If you hear about others' you will surely be grateful cast divination for Àràǹdẹ̀dẹ̀ who wanted to kill himself(simply because of his life situation).
He was asked to make Ẹbọ which he did.
He says "Àràǹdẹ̀dẹ̀, do not commit suicide!"

#Iran is the hot topic these days and I've seen lots of theories floating around on social media about possibility of war with US. This thread will feature my two cents on the situation 👇
Firstly, I don’t think so that war is about to happen. US will increase pressure on Iran, they have already sanctioned them heavily and forced the Oil/gas importers of Iran to back out and Iranian oil exports have fallen significantly within a year.
To know what impact and kind of sanctions US has on Iran currently, go through this article so that we're on same page on how US is pressuring Iran by economic squeezing. aljazeera.com/news/2019/05/s…
