Oh boy. This is going to be interesting the more it develops. Apparently PM Maliki and Ahmadinejad met up yesterday to chat about Iraq’s future. So how’d that go?
“Iran will provide assistance to the Iraqi government to establish full security. We believe strengthening the Iraqi government is tantamount to promoting security, peace and friendship in that country,” Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying.
Hm, it looks like Iran and Iraq are forming a union of some sort. That handshake seems to indicate that. Response, US and UK?
American and British officials have claimed that Iran is attempting to fan the flames of insecurity in Iraq, where the government is trying to promote national unity among Sunnis, Shiites, and Kurds.
Of course. No surprises there. Regardless, it seems Maliki and AhmadineMichaelMoorejihad got along well, with Iran’s Pres claiming they have a “common stance on regional and international issues. Both sides are determined to consolidate brotherly ties.” I hate to say it, but this seems to indicate one thing: even when allowed to vote democratically, the Middle East drifts toward fundamentalist dictatorships.
