Iraqi PM Visits Iran
By Micah Halpern

Tuesday October 19, 2010

I've Been Thinking:

Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al Maliki is trolling for support.

Yesterday Maliki visited Iran. He is trying to shore up strength and end the period of limbo that the Iraqi government has been struggling through since their March elections where no clear victor emerged.

Maliki heads the Shiite coalition and he needs support from Shiite Iran.

The Iraqi leader has also appealed to other neighbors, but Iran is probably the most important neighbor of all. This was Maliki's first visit to Teheran since the elections.

How's this for a plot twist? Iran may be the country that brings calm and security to Iraq.
Frightening, truly frightening.
