People Let Me Tell You...

...'bout my best friend....



Iran's president -- hosting a visit from Iraq's prime minister and expressing support for his country's beleaguered war-torn neighbor -- says the Islamic republic supports a "united" Iraq and will help the nation "establish full security," an Iranian news agency reported.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad spoke at a news conference with Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki after private talks were held on Tuesday, the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency reported. It is al-Maliki's first visit to Iran since he became prime minister earlier this year.

"Iran will provide assistance to the Iraqi government to establish full security. We believe strengthening the Iraqi government is tantamount to promoting security, peace and friendship in that country," Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying.


Does anyone think there's a difference in Iran's mind between "establishing full security" and "murdering all the Sunnis"?

By the way, this would be yet another example of Bush and Ahmadinejad in full agreement: they both think Nouri al-Maliki is a great guy.
