BAGHDAD — A DEVASTATING VACUUM has been created. In a shocking move that experts warn could UNLEASH chaos across the Middle East, the final U.S. forces have ABRUPTLY abandoned the critical Ain al-Asad air base in western Iraq, leaving the nation dangerously exposed. This isn’t a peaceful transition—it’s a RETREAT under pressure, a capitulation to Iranian-backed militias who have relentlessly attacked American troops. The Iraqi military, rife with internal divisions and militias loyal to Tehran, now holds the keys to a fortress that once anchored regional stability against the Islamic State.

Washington’s SILENCE is deafening. With no official statement, the Biden administration has executed a COWARDLY withdrawal, betraying allies and emboldening America’s fiercest enemies. This isn’t about a finished mission; it’s a strategic SURRENDER. Prime Minister al-Sudani’s hollow promise that militias will now disarm is a FANTASY. The very groups that celebrated rocket attacks on U.S. personnel are now poised to fill the power void, with Iraqi state forces unable—or unwilling—to stop them.

The implications are CATASTROPHIC. With this base handed over, the final pillar of U.S. influence in western Iraq has COLLAPSED. Iran’s revolutionary guard corps is celebrating tonight, while ISIS remnants watch and regroup from the shadows. Every rocket, every drone, every act of intimidation by proxy forces HAS WORKED. America has been chased out, proving that relentless violence is the only language this administration understands.

This withdrawal doesn’t bring peace—it IGNITES the next phase of a proxy war. The Kurds in the north are now isolated, Syria’s conflict will spill over unchecked, and the hard-won gains against terrorism are on the brink of REVERSAL. The world is watching a superpower in retreat, and the wolves are moving in. The lights are going out over Ain al-Asad, and a DARKER era is dawning for the Middle East.
