On lesser note, America threatens to cut off Iraq's access to its Federal Reserve deposits if its demand our troops leave is enforced... "money is the sinews of war" meets "that. 'quid' ain't pro quo"?

The prospect of sanctions is still fresh from the UN embargo of the 1990's; and access was suspended in 2015 when cash was flowing to ISIS thru Iraq's loosly regulated banks, so the threat is real to Iraqui finance ministers
