This is rich! They'll arrest him for defamation of character, but not for spilling the beans to Tehran.
If he gets handed to Interpol, they'll send him to Jordon to serve time for his conviction there.
this Chalabi guy is the the biggest lying scum out for himself jackass that has come around the bend......WAIT, we just found the new DNC chair
""We will arrest him based on facts that he wanted to malign the reputation of the defense ministry and defense minister," Hazim al-Shaalan told Al Jazeera television, adding the measures would start after the Muslim holiday which began on Jan. 20.""
I guess since that Chalabi as Iranian Spy story didn't fly, this is the best they can do.

I am still waiting for the evidence against Chalabi. This looks like a State Dept vendetta. There were charges against Fieth and then no news. Let us see the evidence and then decide. I reserve judgment until then.
They should beware of the Eid's of March.
Here's a crazy idea: arrest him, THEN go public with the charges against him instead of giving him a head's up that he has until the end of the holiday until Interpol comes knocking at his door.
