Shaman made a sudden visit to Iraq, shaking both Saudi and Iraq to their cores.
Shaman made a sudden visit to Iraq, drawing side glances from the United States and shocking anger from the CIA.
What exactly did Abdulla mean to Shaman, to warrant such a display of national strength with a formal diplomatic stance?
It must be noted that Shaman's first visit was not only abrupt but also conducted with a disregard for diplomatic protocol, before he had fully seized control and while his foundation was unstable, accompanied only by a small entourage.
To put it nicely, it was brave; to put it bluntly, it was reckless.
Was Shaman's visit nothing more than a demonstration of his stance to the United States, a declaration of his refusal to be manipulated and controlled by them?
No one could truly fathom Shaman's thoughts.
Because no one would believe that Shaman's visit was simply a mission to save someone.
