In recent weeks we have all heard of the good news coming out of Iraq and how Shia and Sunnis have some sort of agreement to end the violence. Good news indeed but how do you explain this picture?
Is Maliki making deals with the devil? Has he tired of American politicians and taken matters into his own hands? Can you blame him after the many stupid comments from the Democrats in this country?
I'm not certain what to make of this picture without more of a story, but it doesn't look good. Not good at all.
"Now say 'How high?,' Nouri, come on, 'How high?' When I tell you to jump, that's what I want to hear, capisce?"
Little did Noah Feldman and his ilk realize that when they so fervently propounded blue-thumbed Iraqi democracy, that the apparent Shi'ite enthusiasm for Jeffersonianism would come to this. "President Ahmadinejad Says Iran Ready to Fill Power Vacuum in Iraq," from
AP (thanks to all who sent this in):
TEHRAN, Iran — President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad warned Tuesday that a power vacuum is imminent in Iraq and said that Iran was ready to help fill the gap.
"The political power of the occupiers is collapsing rapidly," Ahmadinejad said at a press conference in Tehran, referring to U.S. troops in Iraq. "Soon, we will see a huge power vacuum in the region. Of course, we are prepared to fill the gap, with the help of neighbors and regional friends like Saudi Arabia, and with the help of the Iraqi nation."
Yes, watch for him to get very chummy with the Saudis.
Never trust a politician whether he is Democrat or an Arab. They seem to be cut from the same cloth having sold their souls to the devil himself.
