Robert Steele: US Embassy Baghdad — CIA’s New Global Smuggling Headquarters?
Corruption, Government
The two largest US Embassies in the world are located in Baghdad, Iraq and in Yerevan, Armenia. There is no possible legitimate excuse for “Embassies” of this size. They should be deeply investigated, square foot by square foot, and shut down if they are found, as I believe they will be found, to be smuggling centers for the CIA and the US military as well as contractors known to be engaged in trafficking drugs, gold, guns, cash, and small children.
