US arrests 39 Iranian-funded 'criminals' in Iraq
The U.S. military said on Friday it had arrested 39 Iranian-sponsored "criminals" in Iraq this month and had seized some $500,000 meant to fund militancy in the war-wracked country.

"This month alone, coalition forces apprehended 39 Iranian-sponsored criminals and seized nearly $500,000 in funding, supporting terrorism in Iraq," the military said in a statement. "Iraqi and coalition forces are working together to prevent Iranian lethal aid from endangering Iraqi people."
Iraqis might want to think about what it means if we have no status agreement on January 1st, and these jokers get to run free ...
It said one of those arrested was a key member of the Iranian-sponsored Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq criminal network, who was captured on Friday in Baghdad. The detainee is an alleged financier responsible for funding militant operations against Iraqi and U.S. forces, the statement added.

The U.S. military regularly and correctly accuses Iranian-linked groups of arming, funding and training Iraqi militants to fight U.S. forces in the country.

Tehran denies the charges.
"Lies! All lies!"
