Hundreds of thousands of mourners gathered to pay their respects to general kasem salim money killed in a u. S. Drone strike in iraq on friday. While balika. His assassination is considered a declaration of war by many iranians. Speaking at her fathers funeral the generals own daughter has promised reprisals part ever the higher than army quite that either of our families of american soldiers in western asia have witnessed americas humiliation and syria iraq levanon afghanistan yemen and palestine they will spend their days waiting for the death of their children.

The only thing you want to know the disadvantage will have painful consequences for you. And the anger is spreading across borders in lebanon the ran back to hezbollah militia has threatened to hit American Forces in the region meanwhile the Iraqi Parliament has voted to end the u. S. Military presence in the country some 5000 u. S. Troops are there officially to help defeat socalled islamic state. U. S. President donald trump has already warned baghdad that it could be hit by tough sanctions if it follows through with this threat but its irans promise of revenge thats focusing minds to iran has already announced it will no longer abide by the 2015 nuclear deal raising the stakes even further. Lets bring in tyson barker here he is a transatlantic analyst with the Aspen Institute here in berlin good to see you tyson so tell us is it any clearer now whether theres a coherent strategy behind the trunk administrations decision to kill some selling money i think everything that were dealing with on the table is unclear right now both the decision to kill the money and the reaction to it what we have heard from reporting out of washington is that there were a range of options on the table in reaction to the attack on the u. S. Embassy in baghdad and this was the most extreme and that was the one that was chosen to go with to the surprise of many in the National Security community and the National Security and intelligence apparatus in the u. S. Government. Now as the u. S. Braces for retaliation from tehran and were hearing that iran is planning some form tell us we just dont want it dont know what it is President Trump is now threatening to strike iranian cultural sites which some say would be a war crime how does this reflect on americas image abroad what were already starting to feel the range of instruments that iran has at its disposal in the region 1st this vote he in the iraq he parliament the decision to withdraw from all of the conditions of the j. C. B. Away and whats happening there exactly the Nuclear Agreement and whats happening within the n. T. Isis coalitions were already feeling the scramble that iran has at its disposal to kind of scramble the security situation in the region an acute attack specifically a security attack on a military installation that the u. S. Has in the region or in the United States would would change the calculus an attack a counterattack on a Cultural Institution would be a vial it would be a war crime and many have noted that also in the United States including in congress. Iraq is also playing an element of his course the killings took place on iraqi soil iraq is now voted to expel all foreign troops including u. S. Troops from its country the Top Administration says that if u. S. Troops are expelled then the u. S. Would retaliate with sanctions is this a further escalation were seeing here. I mean clearly and the point is were seeing a major shift in the relationship with the United States in iraq and the iran iraq relationship where its tilting its always been kind of push and pull between iran iraq and the United States in iraq where both are kind of the big players in iraq but were talking more towards iran being more the lets say that iraq is more of a client state of iran and if the United States basically pushed out including the military presence in iraq that really changes the game for the United States there tyson thank you very much tyson barker from the Aspen Institute here in berlin thank you.
