Iraq: Your tax dollars at work

The Iranian government is a theocratic dictatorship bent on the destruction of western democracy.

Why are we paying for an army in Iraq (we pay their salaries, we buy their weapons, we train their officers) to fight and kill opponents of the Iranian regime?

"Iraqi military and police units clashed with members of an Iranian opposition group for the second day on Wednesday as security forces sought to seize control of a camp previously protected by the American military. At least six people who lived in the camp were killed during the assault, two of whom had been shot to death, according to the Iraqi government and residents of the camp. . . . The site, Camp Ashraf, is home to about 3,400 Iranian exiles committed to the overthrow of the Islamic revolutionary government in Tehran."
