American newspaper: Iran launched air strikes in Iraq puts Washington in a dilemma



"USA Today" newspaper American spotted reports that Iranian aircraft launched air strikes on targets to regulate "Daash" in Iraq this week, which raises the likelihood that there is an exchange of intelligence between Iraq and Iran, a development that puts the United States in an awkward position between ally and enemy of the other for a long time.

The newspaper quoted, in a report reported on its e-mail on Saturday, Michael Rubin, a military researcher analyst at the Institute, "American Enterprise", as saying that Iran were not able to hit targets without access to intelligence information reliable and that can be obtained from the Iraqi government, which confirms the existence of close ties between the governments of Iraq and Iran, which leads them both Shiites.

He explained Rubin, it is also possible that Iraq passed the information obtained from the United States, where the US military has established centers of joint operations in Baghdad and Erbil, where exchange US officers and Iraqi information and coordinate to launch US air strikes against al "Daash."

He added that the second possibility is that Iran has entered Iraqi airspace without permission, which indicates that the central government in Iraq remains weak and vulnerable to Iranian interference.

She drew the American newspaper to the US military denied having made any coordinate attacks with Iran, despite the fact that the two countries share a common enemy targeting, tanker spokesman for the US Department of Defense, "Pentagon" John Kirby said, "We have not any coordination with the Iranian army."

She explained that the organization Daash, which is one of the forces that are trying to overthrow Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's regime, which is supported by Iran in the nearly three years of war and civil, despite US opposition to the Assad regime, but they now see that Daash poses the greatest threat, making the organization extreme, a common enemy of both Tehran and Washington.

The newspaper found that this puts Washington in a dilemma diplomat, where she invited a number of Arab allies to join the international coalition against Daash, including Qatar, Jordan and Saudi Arabia, but at the same time, the Arab Gulf states consider Iran as a major threat any alliance with Iran or any cooperation between Washington and Tehran will not support
