Charles Krauthammer has joined the growing chorus of nay sayers against Iraqi PM Nouri al Maliki (like Senators Clinton, Reid, and Levin) in calling for his removal.
Just something we might want to keep in mind: the last time the United States President ordered/authorized a coup de tat against an the sitting head of allied state, that President was dead two months later from an assassin's bullet.
President Kennedy authorized the coup de tat that resulted in the murder of Ngo Dinh Diem on November 2, 1963.
Now, before the Oliver Stones of the blogosphere start going nutso over this bit of trivia, I am not trying to establish a conspiratorial cause to the Kennedy assassination.
I am just pointing out that George W. Bush doesn't have much incentive to tease a repeat of history.
