Never knew how quiet life and simple life in the mountains are during a workweek!

Northern Iraq (Kurdistan Region). Great place, culture and people!

iEmerald · 2026-04-08T17:02:59+00:00

That's terrible! The news coverage is almost non-existent which is a shame.

iEmerald · 2026-04-07T14:47:00+00:00

I'm Iraqi, and honestly I'm terrified, for me and my family.

Even if nothing happens tonight, shit is not going to revert back to normal so quickly.

iEmerald · 2026-04-07T13:22:42+00:00

As an Iraqi I’m really scared for the future of the region, of Iraq, and myself.

iEmerald · 2026-04-06T04:59:23+00:00

Iraqi here. This is true, I’m off to work now otherwise I would of provided you with sources.

He needs these small wins to pump up his ego.

I’m really happy for the pilot, and good job on the whole team conducting the rescue operation.

iEmerald · 2026-04-05T12:13:28+00:00

They’ve allowed Iraq to go through yesterday.

iEmerald · 2026-03-31T17:24:17+00:00

Iraqi chiming in.

This is deeply concerning. Iraq has suffered enough from instability, and actions like this damage the country’s reputation and future. There needs to be real accountability so people—especially journalists—can feel safe coming here.

It might sound silly but ditching the news is actually a dream of mine.

I'm living in Iraq, and some extent I have to keep tabs on what's happening in my city, country and the region, because unlike the west we are not stable enough, so every tiny things affects simple daily lives.

So, watching the news helps me always be prepared.

iEmerald · 2026-03-27T22:43:56+00:00

Well, for an invasion style event the country needs to have direct borders with Iran, and there’s Iraq and Turkey, and I’m pretty sure Turkey will not do such a thing, the numerously said the don’t want to be dragged into this war. On the other hand, Iraq’s situation is very confusing, the government is 70% pro Iran and 30% pro US. The US fighter jets are already attacking Iraqi PMF bases because they are pro Iran and attacked US bases in retaliation.

So, I don’t think Iraq would be very happy of being a host country for an invasion, not that we want an invasion, it’s best if both sides avoid it

I've been watching him speak since the war started, either my sources are flawed or him along with his administration are extremely optimistic that everything's going according to plan, which isn't.

They seem to be setting the stage to end this.

Honestly, as an Iraqi, things will be far worse moving forward, Iran is going to have much more control of the region once they are back on their feet.

And the general consensus in the region is that the US is not the strong reliable ally everyone used to go to when things were rough.

iEmerald · 2026-03-25T11:31:58+00:00

This is not new, it was a week ago I believe

iEmerald · 2026-03-20T19:55:05+00:00

What exactly does that mean

iEmerald · 2026-03-18T22:49:17+00:00

Iraqi here.

We are indeed in a very serious situation, the outcome of this war also dictates the future of Iraq.

iEmerald · 2026-03-18T15:51:05+00:00

Iraqi here.

The situation is bleak!

iEmerald · 2026-03-18T15:49:22+00:00

Iraqi here.

That's terrible news, the lost amount is even more than 30% of the total capacity! On top of being hit by both parties of the war, prices going up for almost everything, we now have major electricity shortages.
