The New York Times is reporting the Bush administration is expressing growing doubts about Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. In a classified memo, National Security Adviser Stephen J. Hadley writes: “The reality on the streets of Baghdad suggests Maliki is either ignorant of what is going on, misrepresenting his intentions, or that his capabilities are not yet sufficient to turn his good intentions into action.” A member of the Bush administration deliberately released the memo.
