Recently, Iraq has experienced a notable increase in crises between Iranian-backed factions and the Iraqi government, leading to escalating tensions. Some political circles suggest a potential resumption of operations against American forces if certain red lines are crossed. Ali Al-Asadi, the head of the Political Council of the Al-Nujaba movement, argues that the authority to declare war should reside with the people and the resistance. This standpoint sparks questions about Iraq's future within the regional and international landscape. On the other hand, the Prime Minister is striving to maintain the state's positions through its institutions, indicating that matters of war and peace are solely governmental responsibilities and not under the purview of factions. Amid various overlapping issues, including foreign interventions and internal conflicts, the Iraqi scene seems poised for a unique phase of tension and escalation that could have adverse social and economic consequences. This situation reflects the suffering of a country that has been in a state of continuous turmoil for decades. Some experts call for effective steps toward rebuilding Iraq and leveraging the current economic condition to enhance the living standards of its citizens while the main narrative remains focused on overcoming fears of repeated war and tension scenarios.
