Yes, but if you remember, the party that won the elections was not the one that our government preferred. The party that won is the party that the Iranians supported, and that is why the current government has been so friendly to Iran.
If they had intelligence that Iran was arming the insurgents that they are fighting, do you think they would continue to be so friendly towards them? al-Maliki, the Prime Minister of Iraq, is good buddies with the Iranian regime. He has already made all kinds of trade deals with them, including the opening of an Iranian National Bank in Baghdad. And according to memos issued by al-Maliki's office last week, those military advisers that we arrested last week were invited by his government.
