One day in the autumn of 2007, attended by President George W. Bush, Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki in a video conference to sign a "declaration of principles" on the future of US-Iraqi relations.
While Mr. Bush signed over his name, al-Maliki has to pass its version of the pen on the demonstrators to sign the document. At the last minute, Maliki decided not to sign impossible that he did not read the final version of the document, but did not mention it to Bush, who were not of had the idea that the pen counterpart did not touch the paper, noted one American officials so as soon disappeared image of Bush from the screen, DNA one aide to al-Maliki him saying "Do not manipulate with the head of the United States."
That incident that took place before nearly seven years extolled the relationship barbed fluctuating between the prime minister and American officials, were not events often as they seemed, had not been working out because it was supposed to raise al-Maliki of the unknown to power with the help of America, but the Bush and then President Obama discovered that fickle ally and is actively causing them severe headache.
Today accuse al-Maliki, President Fuad Masum, violating the constitution, now and after Maliki arrived to the moment of truth, he will either step down or trying to retain power, for its part is trying to Obama and the American government maneuver for the last time, hoping to replace the character more reliable can reunite divided country and work in cooperation more with Washington.
Weeks ago, said the president and his aides that it is not their duty to nominate the prime Iraqis, but made clear Monday that the time has come to step down al-Maliki in favor of Haider al-Abadi - who belongs to the same party - named by President infallible to be the next president of the minister.
President Obama and Vice President Joseph Biden contacted Balebadi to congratulate him, and when it appeared the president in front of the camera to repeat the greeting in public, he did not mention the name of al-Maliki, and when asked by a reporter whether he had a message for the owners, the president left the place without saying a word, was the message.
He says James Jeffrey, who was watching the two presidents deal with al-Maliki in his capacity as first deputy national security adviser and then Obama's ambassador in Baghdad, "he was tenacious and a fighter and will resist this, everyone has pulled it."
He added Jeffrey, saying he was "in the end would be the responsibility of the Americans or others to persuade al-Maliki to leave, I think he would step down if he is forced into it instead of the coup, he would do what he could publicly to derail it, including the arrest of people, but the one to talk to him sometime."
Al-Maliki - Shiite politician not known much and who spent most of the reign of Saddam outside Iraq - a surprise choice for prime minister in 2006 after months of stalemate and deadlock.
At the time, Bush was careful to choose the Iraqis finally Prime Minister more decisive of Ibrahim al-Jaafari, and encouraged Bush's ambassador in Baghdad, Zalmay Khalilzad, al-Maliki to take over the job and run the country.
Americans did not know much about him, so they initially were using his name, where they were mistakenly call it his nom de guerre, Jawad - that Maliki himself corrected it for them, but Bush flew to Baghdad to meet him and "felt solidly internal" It is what it looks like.
Jeffrey says, "You have to understand in order to understand al-Jaafari, al-Maliki, with al-Jaafari, we could not make it take a decision, but al-Maliki was a better leader, at least initially."
However it was complicated, when solutions that autumn was the Americans frustrated by al-Maliki, who refused to rein in Shiite militias, and Tell adviser Stephen Hadley president's national security, Bush in a confidential memo was leaked that al-Maliki was either "ignorant of what is going on and misrepresenting his intentions," or Unable to take any action.
In the end, Bush doubled the pressure on al-Maliki through risk perpetuating momentum and American forces maintained a weekly video conference with him in an attempt to teach the art of policy alliances.
But the story of the signing of the placebo increased the frustration of the Americans, despite the fact that al-Maliki finally signed the agreement when the enemies of the Iraqi masterminded a plot to get him out of office.
And some members of Congress were in agreement on the necessity of his departure, including Brett Mcgork official, who faced Maliki aide on the signing placebo.
Bush rejects the idea, but he sent Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to Baghdad to tell Maliki that develops itself, where she said the owners "you are the Prime Minister of annoying and terrible, without progress and without the agreement will be on your own dangling from a light poles."
And stayed Maliki hasty, where is the process of hasty Random against Shiite militants in Basra that nearly caused a disaster, but succeeded at the last minute with the help of the Americans, and wrote Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South California, says, "I've turned Maliki man docile to John Wayne."
