Iran's allies in Iraq, Yemen threaten U.S. over intervention in Israel

BAGHDAD, Oct 10 (Reuters) - Powerful Iraqi and Yemeni armed groups aligned with Iran have threatened to target U.S. interests with missiles and drones if Washington intervenes to support Israel in its conflict with Hamas in Gaza that already shows signs of expanding to further fronts.

The comments come amid strong support by the United States for Israel's response to the attacks and a U.S. pledge to rapidly provide additional munitions to Israel and deploy a carrier strike group to the Eastern Mediterranean.

In Iraq, Kataib Hezbollah, a powerful armed faction with close ties to Iran, said it would target U.S. bases with missiles, drones and its special forces if Washington intervened in the conflict.

Hmm, amazing the little pests that come out of the woodwork when they sense opportunity. Hopefully they smarten up before they get badly hurt.

Wagner tried sneak attacks on the US presence in Syria a couple of times and got walloped before they ever even got close enough to threaten anybody. As long as US Warriors are getting the support they need, it's anyone who might attack them who should worry.
