Iraq to receive $1B from Iran

hmmmmm... mmmmm-hmmmmm...

Iran has pledged to give Iraq a $1 billion loan and help with tackling insecurity, Iraqi President Jalal Talabani said at the end of a ground-breaking visit to the Islamic state.

Talabani stressed the improving political and commercial ties between two countries which fought a bitter 1980-1988 war in which hundreds of thousands died.

"All the officials I met said there are no limits to Iran's support for the Iraqi nation," he told reporters.

this seems to have slipped under the domestic msm radar...

(thanks to raw story...)
