There's a major upset in Iraq about a selfie posted on Instagram. It's a picture of two women. The Iraqi woman who posted the photo has been forced to flee the country after getting serious and repeated death threats leveled against her and her family. So what's the photo?
It's a picture on Miss Iraq and Miss Israel that the two took at the Miss Universe International Pageant. It has the caption "Peace and Love from Miss Iraq and Miss Israel". Pretty heinous, right?
After the photo was posted, Miss Iraq was warned that unless she took it down, she would be stripped of her title. She also started getting death threats directed at her and her family. As a result, they all left Iraq, although the photo is still up on Instagram.
I haven't yet heard anyone in the media blame President Trump for this, but that, no doubt, is coming.
