He is right. Not saying it’s good, but he is right.
The Democrat idiots Levin and Co. are calling for his ouster although they aren’t in a position to do so.
At the same time those very Democrats are calling for our withdrawal. What are the Iraqis supposed to do? Of course they will look for other patrons and partners. Maliki and the Shias naturally will look to Iran.
This is the reaction to Democrat bitching.
This is the natural consequence of the President's foolish belief that a consensual and pacific government could be established among the inhabitants of the former Ottoman vilayets of Mosul, Mesopotamia, and Basra, as a unitary state under the name "Iraq".
The Democrats are merely opportunistic scavengers.
“Of course they will look for other patrons and partners. Maliki and the Shias naturally will look to Iran.”
Totally agree. Maliki is quite possibly the Shia’s one and only shot at this, except for a widespread escalation of their violence, which at this time still appears very factional and uncoordinated.
I think Maliki’s next act will be to invoke Colin Powells statement that we will leave when asked.....and that....with the “friends elsewhere” threat above is I think exactly what Levin et al are shooting for, possibly set into motion by Pelosi when she visited Syria, from where Maliki has just returned, hint hint.
Even a blind pig can find an acorn now and then.
Our military officers IN IRAQ are saying Maliki is part of the problem and ought to be replaced.
I agree. This is the expected response to asshat Levin and Co.
