Iraqis

Description

Bill's hushed plea in the press room's shadows brands the Iraqis as elusive recipients of Bonamo Energy's drilling equipment, cargo that slices through sanctions like a covert blade—now ensnaring a grand jury investigation that leaves C.J. hollow-eyed and silent. This third-party foreign cluster eludes definition, shapeshifting as potential government conduits, corporate fronts, or rogue operators; their alleged uptake ignites journalistic pursuit, strains White House defenses, and yanks loyalties like Ainsley's into the legal abyss, all without revealing hierarchies or named operatives.
