Iraq PM gives gov't 100 days to improve -- or else

[usndiver]

BAGHDAD – Iraq's prime minister says he is giving his ministers 100 days to improve their performance or risk losing their jobs.

Nouri al-Maliki's warning came two days after thousands of protesters across the country demanded better public services.

The prime minister told his Cabinet on Sunday that he would evaluate each ministry's performance. His office said personnel changes would be made, depending on the outcome.

In Friday's demonstrations, thousands had marched on government buildings and clashed with security forces. Fourteen protesters were killed in the largest anti-government protests in Iraq since political unrest began spreading in the Arab world weeks ago.

Rights groups asked the prime minister to investigate the use of force by his troops.

He's a fine one to talk.

Like the pot calling the kettle black.

Past two months, its him stalling and not doing his job. They're just following his example.

At another point, makes you wonder if all the positions have been filled all the while.
