Iraqis need, like any other people, basic infrastructure like to make their society work. Propaganda or not, a school is a school. Children and adults getting educated and having chances of getting better jobs, instead of falling into traps like the so called Islamic State that brought only death, rape and suffering.
Now if the Iraqis themselves want to argue if they prefer watching their schoolchildren singing in English or Mandarin, that should ultimately be the Iraqis decision, not ours.

This reads like Chinese propaganda. It is not unbiased.
-
Reads a fact that China built a thousand schools in Iraq and proceeds to screech about Chinese propaganda exposing own biases. This is the brainrot we now have to deal with on daily basis here after the reddit migration.

You didn’t read the article. It makes broad assertions about the US’s dealing in Iraq, calling it all atrocities. This is not good journalism.
-
Iraq paid for those schools (a 2021 deal is referenced, where this was in exchange for oil - a fact the article specifically avoids mentioning).
This is essentially an article about someone ordering a product, paying for it, and getting it delivered.

I once posted some stuff in a signal group about China's school building efforts in Africa and the Middle East and a lib friend piped up saying "Colonialism is colonialism, whether it is done with schools, or with bombs". Good lord that annoyed me.
Immortal Technique did a colonialism by building that orphanage in Afghanistan, I am very smart
