New Iraqi PM Kadzimi calls for national sovereignty. US grasps at straws

US base Ayn al-Asad in Kurdistan, target of Iraq resistance bombs in December 2019. 
In January 2020, Iran launched retaliatory bombs on the base after the assassination of General Suleimani. 
Iraq resistance bombed it again in February.
Rather than just leaving, as the Iraq government requests, the US imported its new air defense Raad-500 short-range ballistic missiles (without any authorization from Iraq) aimed at ... guess who?.
Kadzimi has his work cut out for him.
