Iran's vice-president has said efforts to improve security in Iraq depend on the withdrawal of US-led forces and an end to US interference in the country.
I love this story. The U.S. still contends that it is trying to enable the al-Maliki-led Shia-majority government while at the same time Nouri is getting along great with his friends in Tehran.
Nouri might as well be Iranian. How's come the U.S. can try to ally with Nouri but not with the Persians?
Most Iranians and Iraqis are Shia; The Sunni minority has ties to Saudi Arabia
