As reported at The Gateway Pundit, Hezbollah terrorist group leader Hassan Nasrallah is now dead. Apparently, this didn’t go over so well among Shiite Muslims in Baghdad. According to Geller Report, thousands of Iraqis attempted to storm the US embassy in Baghdad.

On her blog Pamela Geller says, “Videos show protesters clashing with security forces in riot gear can be seen among the large crowd, along with flags of Iran-backed militias in Iraq known as the Popular Mobilization Force.”

One Twitter account described these rioters as -affiliated.

Another pointed out, “Harris may have a Benghazi-like disaster on her hands unless something is done quickly. Pray for our embassy staff, their families, and those tasked with protecting them.”

While our embassy seems to be safe as of now this highlight yet again how the Iraq war was a disaster creating civil unrest in Iraq and allowing the Mullahs in Iran to add it to their Islamist sphere of influence.
