Isn’t there something actually useful to do in Iraq… Just asking.
Who cares if some idiot wants to burn $insertReligiousBook in some forgein country?
Oh yeah, religious zealots, that’s who. /s
People protest a lot of stuff in Iraq. Just nobody cares about what the Iraqi public thinks.
After the removal of the Iraqi government and army in the Iraq war, Iraq has essentially become a failed state run by Iranian mafias and tribal militias. There is literally nothing useful to do in Iraq.
removal is a nice euphemism for a foreign invasion and installation of a government hostile to most of the people during a decade of occupation and ressource exploitation.
Fragile religiosity, they don’t really trust god to punish the sinners…
that’s such an interesting take on religious people forcing their beliefs on others: so what if they sin? Let your god take care of it, or do you think he’s too incompetent to deal with it himself?
