Informative interview conducted by a German reporter with Prime Minister Malaki who indicates that he prefers Obama's plan for troop withdraw. Will MSM pick up on this story and report that Malaki who is on the ground in Iraq every day prefers Obama’s plan even though McCain is running his campaign on the premise that he has the experience and not Obama? The timing of Malaki making this statement is very important with Obama's planned trip.

This interview is well worth reading because it eliminates any doubts that the Iraqi leadership want the US miliary out of the country as soon as possible. Perhaps John McCain should have a look at it.

Good interview in terms of getting it "from the horse's mouth". Tell me again why this interview will most likely not appear in the US domestic media.

The Spiegel mistranslated Prime Minister al-Maliki's remarks, rendering this piece essentially worthless. The magazine has already changed its article to correct its mistakes. Note: Der Spiegel is well known for its unreliable and highly slanted articles. NewsTrust reviewers should be very cautious with anything from this magazine.
