Reuters: Tom Barrack will take over the Iraq file.

And Mark Sfaya returned to the US after failing to stop Nouri al-Maliki from becoming Prime Minister!

Commentary: Once again, Washington swaps faces and shuffles envoys, but the core project remains the same: domination of Iraq and turning it into an American sphere of influence. Yet the reality they refuse to admit is that Iraq is no longer managed by embassies or businessmen sent as “special envoys.” Maliki rose despite their will, and resistance imposed its equation despite all pressure.

The irony is clear: those who imagine themselves as “deal-makers” discover that spilled blood and accumulated popular consciousness are stronger than any corporate or banking deal. Iraq today is not an American file—it is a battlefield governed by the equations of resistance:

• Militarily: asymmetric deterrence that enforces red lines.

• Politically: a national narrative breaking Western media hegemony.

• Economically: survival under sanctions and siege.

Faces change, but the Axis of Resistance remains the one force that cannot be bypassed.
