Iraqi PM arrives in Iran capital

Not a good sign that your prime minister has fled the country.

Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki arrived in Tehran on Tuesday for an official state visit, Iranian state television reported.

Hey, everyone needs a vacation from complete fucking violent chaos once in a while.

Maliki had been expected to tell fellow Shi'ite Muslim leaders in Iran that Tehran should not interfere in Iraqi affairs, a message likely to please Washington which accuses Iran of backing militants fighting U.S. troops in Iraq.

We're still playing politics with these people? The definition of insanity is performing the same action over and over and expecting a different outcome.

But Maliki and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad gave few details about their talks on Tuesday, except to say that the two neighbors which fought a bloody war in the 1980s had agreed to cooperate in political, economic and security fields.

That should curb the instability. A lot was accomplished today. Somewhere.
