Iran Ready To Make Iraq Proxy

WASHINGTON [MENL] -- Iran has significantly expanded its intervention and is
ready to transform Iraq into a proxy, a report said.
The Center for New Politics and Policy asserted that Iran was filling
the vacuum left by the U.S. military withdrawal from Iraq. In a report
titled "Iraq's Shi'a Leadership Crisis and the Iranian End Game," the
Washington-based center said Iran was using both Shi'ite and Sunni militias
to destabilize Iraq to prevent the emergence of a pro-U.S. government in
Baghdad.
