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.

Of course the Iraqi government wants to be friends with Iran. If they aren't they will be destroyed seconds after the US military pulls out.
