Let’s assume for a moment that Maliki’s intention is not simply to get rid of an evil militia, but to destroy a political rival before the upcoming elections. In that case, should the US provide its full support for that? Is supporting Maliki in that endeavor really supporting freedom and democracy in Iraq?or is it doing exactly the opposite. Seems to me the word quagmire rings truer and truer with every passing day.
