Iraq’s grand Mufti, Sheik Abdolmalik Al-Saadi reiterated that Maliki’s government is built on sectarianism. He said this illustrates the gravity of Iran’s involvement in Iraq. Maliki is acting on the directions of the Quds force and Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Corp and Iran’s ambassador to Iraq. He accentuated that the current Iraqi government is pursuing Iran’s interests in Iraq better than if there was a direct invasion by the Iranians.
