Iraqi Kurdistan Region has a significant position politically and geostrategic ally in the U.S. military strategy. This equation emerged at the political and security levels after 2014 in the Middle East. Due to the anti-terror war, the security field has become the core of the U.S. and Iraqi Kurdistan relations. Especially when the United States relied on regional and local partners and proxies and the support for security and military strategies in Iraq and the Middle East. For instance, the threat of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) to the U.S. strategic interests strengthened the relationship between the United States and the Iraqi Kurdistan region military forces known as Peshmarga. It was an effective force in defeating ISS and eliminating the danger and threat of IS
