#6  As per #3 + Maliki's appearance on CNN, IIUC Maliki is refusing to step down as it goes against the post-Saddam Iraqi Constitution, + argues that it is these calls for him to step down so that a new Obama/US-supported
"inclusive" Govt. can be quickly formed that is actually "unconstitutional" vee Iraqi law.
