One of the men leading the pro-Iranian rioters as they stormed the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad was disturbingly familiar, having been a guest of former President Obama at the White House.
The Washington Post reported on Tuesday that one of the leaders of the riots that threatened the embassy in Baghdad was Hadi al-Amiri, head of the Badr Organization, one of the largest pro-Iran militias in Iraq.

Hadi Farhan al-Amiri, the Iraqi Minister of Transportation at the time, was a guest of former President Barack Obama at the White House in 2011. What is perhaps even more disturbing is that even then, Amiri had a powerfully anti-American background. At the time of his visit, he was the head of the Badr Organization, the military wing of the Supreme Islamic Iraqi Council (SIIC), fighting on the side of the Iranians during the Iran–Iraq War. Amiri was the leader of the Badr Organization, Al-Amiri had very close ties to the Iranian leadership—and in particular, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which was responsible for training the Badr Brigade during Saddam Hussein’s rule or Iraq.
Amiri was part of a delegation from the Iraqi government visiting the White House in December 2011 at which President Obama proudly announced the end of the Iran-Iraq War.
Obama responded to criticism concerning his hosting Amiri by saying, “He has shown himself to be willing to make very tough decisions in the interests of Iraqi nationalism, even if they cause problems with [Iran].”
At the time, the U.S. allied with pro-Iranian Iraqis like the Badr Organization in the effort to depose Sadaam Hussein, who Iran perceived as an enemy they had in common with the U.S.
Kataib Hezbollah carried out a rocket attack against a military compound near Kirkuk, in northern Iraq in which 30 rockets were fired, killing a U.S. defense contractor and wounding four U.S. soldiers. Approximately 25 Hezbollah were killed in the U.S. air-response to the attack. The funerals for some of the Hezbollah led to the riots at the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad in which Hezbollah flags were visible.
President Obama’s connection with Iran was embodied in the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), known commonly as the Iran nuclear deal or Iran deal, which removed economic sanctions and greenlighted Iran’s nuclear program. The JCPOA culminated in the Obama administration paying $1.7 billion to Iran, much of it in cash.

FATHER,
Forgive us for calling good evil and evil good. Forgive us for listening to lies and calling it truth. We come asking on behalf of our country’s wicked ways that grieve YOUR HEART! Things that have happened by The hands of the USA! Thank you for making changes now LORD! Thank you for President Trump and YOUR light breaking through the oppressive darkness! Thank you for the 2020 evangelical awakening like the dawn! YOU ARE BREAKING FORTH FATHER! You are waking up YOUR Sleeping Beauty Bride!
We also pray for all those that stand against YOU LORD, no matter what country! We ask your mercy and grace! Forgive their rebellious stiff necked ways. Remove their hardened hearts and give them a heart of flesh. Let your bride, the church, be one family unit, with one voice as your hands and feet standing for YOUR truths in unity lifting YOU high all around the world, LORD.
We ask that you turn goat nations into sheep nations! That they miraculously turn 180 degrees and become nations who worship I AM in Spirit and in Truth. May they long to bless Isreal and bring their gifts to Zion! Turn hearts to YOU, like only YOU can do FATHER!
We pray your WORD back to YOU – There is a way that seems right to a man but the way there in leads to death.
Run quickly to repent! Come and reason with THE LORD. Thou your sins be as scarlet HE will make them whiter than snow! Let everyone who will – come! Drink from HIS WATER OF LIFE! Let hearts run to repentance to YOU LORD and choose THE WAY TO EVERLASTING LIFE! THANK YOU FATHER!
