Chalabi, in Tehran, Meets With Iranian President Before Traveling to U.S.


Hell he is on his way to

America, the main

instigator of the war

with Georgie and his

Goons, Go figure


In a series of closed meetings, Mr. Chalabi saw Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the tough-talking Iranian president; Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mattaki; and Ali Larijani, the head of the Iranian National Security Council.

Mr. Chalabi said he also made clear to the Iranians that the Iraqi government would maintain close ties to the United States.

For their part, Iranian leaders asserted that they had indeed exercised a strong force in internal Iraqi politics, and they said they intended to continue to do so. Last January, after the Shiite coalition's selection of Ibrahim al-Jafaari as its choice to be prime minister, rumors swirled about Baghdad that the Iranians had intervened strongly on his behalf.

When asked about this, Mr. Larijani said the Iranians had indeed intervened strongly with Iraq's Shiite leaders, but he said the Iranians had not sided with a particular candidate.
