Maliki Endorses Obama

Or at least he endorses Obama's withdrawal timetable. From Reuters:

In an interview with Der Spiegel released on Saturday, Maliki said he wanted U.S. troops to withdraw from Iraq as soon as possible.

"U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama talks about 16 months. That, we think, would be the right timeframe for a withdrawal, with the possibility of slight changes."

Looks like that "general time horizon" might not be so general after all.
