It doesn't seem to be the position of the Prime Minister of Iraq. He has made three visits to Iran in the last three years. President Ahmadinejad made a publicized state visit to Iraq, one where the visit was public knowledge before he arrived, he arrived in broad daylight and where he traveled from the Baghdad Airport to the city by motorcade (unlike George Bush, where none of those are true of his visits).
But Prime Minister Maliki probably has a view of the world more advanced than that of Mr. Bush, who evinces the world outlook of a slightly retarded 13-year-old.
Well said. I bet this prick sleeps well at night knowing so many around the world hate his guts.

Well, given that Prime Minister Malaki spent most of the Saddam years as an honored guest of the Iranian government, and his Badr Brigade militia is funded by the Iranian government, err, yeah, I think he talks to the Iranians :-). Indeed, Prime Minister Malaki is one of those common interests that both the U.S. and Iran share. There's absolutely no reason not to talk about shared common interests with the Iranians, other than a naive notion of "good vs. evil" that is charming in a toddler but idiotic in an adult. Nations don't have friends or enemies, they have interests, and our interests overlap with those of Iran when it comes to Iraq -- neither of us want a failed state there. Adults would talk about such things. Idiots... not so much.
ReplyDeleteOne Fly, the B2 bomber post wasn't a plane post? Now we know why the Busheviks are so hot to hit Iran -- it's the only place they can send B-2 bombers where it won't melt in the rain!
