So, it now appears that the 24 interior ministry officers arrested for either plotting a coup, or plotting to revive the Baath party have been released.
I believe that Robert Farley's analysis is spot on.
There never was a coup or a Baath party plot, there was just a power grab by Nouri al Maliki, and when too many people called him out on this, he folded.
Not sure what this means, though it will make the next round of elections in Iraq interesting.
