Probably because the best way to get Chad points in Iraq is burning down the local US embassy.

The Chad invasion was brilliant since torching the fortress style Green Zone embassy and then withdrawing after the prestige damage is done is really great tactics.

Plus the troops will looks like idiots shuffling around on TV with nothing meaningful to do or standing guard over burned out buildings.

It's even better it refocuses the Iraqi Nationalist protests on the US. It's not Iran that was flying attack Helicopters over Baghdad or is deploy more troops into the region.

Turning Iraq into a battle ground to fight Iran is not going to be a way to get the Iraqi people on side of the US.

Iraq isn't gonna be a battleground because we can't deploy there anymore. All the troops being sent to the region have to go to Kuwait, and the Iraqi government will not let us stage operations to attack Iran through Iraq. This is all purely for domestic consumption to prevent the chuds from experiencing any kind of humiliation, and if the administration is dumb enough to attack Iran then they'll really be humiliated.
