Given that when Iran actually launched a retaliatory strike on America's air bases in occupied Iraq (and since the American military presence has been officially invited to leave Iraqi territory by the recognized government of Iraq, that is where these bases are now located) it owned those bases defenses even though it called its shots in advance, these ineffectual drones definitely weren't an Iranian action.
The American attribution claims are to distract attention from the reality that the Iraqi population wants the US gone NOW, and do these sort of actions to underline that message.
