Iraq’s government has been under pressure to expel the US since January 2020, when a US drone strike in Baghdad killed Iranian Gen. Qasem Soleimani and PMF leader Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis. After the strike, the Iraqi parliament voted to expel US forces, but the US refused to leave.

Probably something about not having all your eggs in one basket.

Yeah, but after a certain number of baskets, it turns from using baskets to store eggs, to using eggs to mark baskets.
