The al-Maliki ultimatum
Roger Zelazny said it in Lord of Light:
It is written that he who gives orders without having the power to enforce them, that man is a fool.
Not sure if Nuri al-Maliki is a sci-fi fan.
A little more certain that the American “advisory role” will need to become a little more than that if Maliki is going to make good on his challenge to the Mahdi Army militias.
