Despite ongoing strained US-Iranian relations, US Secretary of State John Kerry has come out with some unlikely comments praising the Islamic Republic for being “helpful” in the common mission to stamp out the Islamic State terror group in Iraq.

When asked whether Iran’s influence in Iraq was “more helpful or more harmful” at the Aspen Ideas Festival in Colorado, Kerry gave an unexpected response.

“Look, we have challenges with Iran as everybody knows and we are working on those challenges,” Kerry told reporters. “But I can tell you that Iran in Iraq has been in certain ways helpful, and they clearly are focused on ISIL-Daesh [IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL], and so we have a common interest, actually,” he added.

This was accompanied by an assessment from Brent McGurk, the US envoy for the war against IS, who conceded that Iran’s role in Iraq was positive, despite the view that the Shiite forces backed by Iran and operating in Iraq are not all that loyal to the common cause and tend to go rogue. McGurk claimed that “about 15-20%” of those forces “are a fundamental problem.”

Iran is fighting on the side of Assad, which the US has repeatedly declared is a bigger threat than ISIS. Although he was speaking on Iraq and not Syria, it’s all the same fight with the same groups involved. As such, effectively, by saying Iran is helpful, Kerry is also saying that Assad’s forces, as well as Russia and Hezbollah, are also helpful.

This was definitely veering from the script. He will either be forced to correct this statement or they will just try and forget he ever said it.
