So who's surprised? These guys could screw up the proverbial you-know-what. While they're screeching and threatening to bomb Iran, the Iraqis are embracing the very people they're trying to vilify.
WASHINGTON (CNN) – One of the most awkward developments for Bush administration and McCain campaign officials to defend is the appearance of Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki in Iran, embracing and kissing Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The Iranians are widely accused by U.S. military and civilian officials of helping to kill American troops in Iraq. The Iranian leader is widely accused of supporting a covert nuclear weapons program. He has been quoted calling for Israel to be removed from the map. So why is the top U.S. ally in Iraq kissing him?
Wonder what the Iraqi response to this headline is, or doesn't the administration care? Silly question...
