I will not be forced out by US and UK, says Iraqi PM -Guardian UK

Iraq's embattled prime minister has defiantly refused to give up his claim to head the country's next government in spite of strong American and British pleas for an end to a deadlock which has paralysed the country for almost four months.

In an exclusive interview with the Guardian in Baghdad - his first since Condoleezza Rice and Jack Straw pleaded with him and his rivals for an immediate agreement to prevent a slide to civil war - Ibrahim Jaafari insisted he would continue to carry out his duties.

"I heard their points of view even though I disagree with them," he said, referring to Ms Rice and Mr Straw's hectic arm-twisting visit to the Iraqi capital which ended on Monday.

Wonder what forcing out Iraq's prime minister has to do with implementing democracy in Iraq?

Maybe they should release Saddam, if they plan on totalitarian regime tactics to govern Iraq. After all the US put Saddam in power before and they can take him away again if it doesn't work out (sarcasm).

What a hypocritical web we weave...

Our nutbag leaders are destroying what little credibility we have left.
