Maliki hopes to end insurgency, dissolve militias in six months
(AP)

30 January 2007



BAGHDAD, Iraq - Prime Minister Nouri Al Maliki said in remarks published on Tuesday that he hopes sectarian militias will be dissolved and the Sunni insurgency ended within six months.


Al Maliki made the optimistic prediction in an interview with the Arabic newspaper Al-Hayat as US and Iraqi forces prepare for a major security crackdown in Baghdad - the third attempt within a year to curb sectarian violence.

“The militias have to end and be transferred to political organizations and any competition with the state in its attempt to bring about security must end,” said Al Maliki, who owes his job in part to the backing of radical Shia cleric Muqtada Al Sadr, leader of the biggest Shia militia, the Mahdi Army.

The United States is sending additional 21,500 troops to Iraq for the security plan. Most of the additional troops are headed for Baghdad and a brigade of the 82nd Airborne Division was already in place, the US military reported.

Asked how long it will take to dissolve militias, Al Maliki said “I don’t want to tie myself to deadlines but my intention is to end this matter. I have two matters that I want to finish as soon as possible and they are terrorism and militias from one side and then national reconciliation and outlaws.”

“I have hope that those two matters will be done in less than six months since militias have started complying and the government is imposing itself. Our success in ending the militias will lead to a success in national reconciliation,” Al Maliki said.

Al Maliki announced a 24-point national reconciliation program in June that offered amnesty to members of the Sunni Arab-led insurgency who were not involved in “terrorist activities” and amend a law that removed senior members of Saddam Hussein’s Baath Party from their jobs. Hundreds of former Baathists have been reinstated in recent months.

The prime minister acknowledged that infiltration by Sunni and Shia extremists was a problem in both the army and police. He said the problem was worse in the army because armed group sympathizers hold high ranks. He mentioned an army officer who was involved in Sunni insurgent activities in Baghdad’s Haifa street that witnessed clashes last week between US and Iraqi troops against insurgents.

“We have sacked thousands of members of the police and armed forces,” he said. Al-Maliki added that authorities were screening all Iraqi officers expected to take part in the upcoming crackdown to identify militia and insurgent infiltrators.

He said he understood that the United States would not continue its support indefinitely unless the government showed progress in addressing sectarian and other problems.

In remarks prepared for a speech Tuesday, Sen. Bill Nelson, a Florida Democrat on the Senate Armed Services Committee who recently returned from a trip to the region, delivered a sharp rebuke of Al Maliki, saying he “either lacks the will, or the nerve, to take on the Shia militias.”

The prime minister blamed Baathists for the deadly bombings that killed hundreds of people this month saying “they aim to spread fear and bring down the government.”

البرلمان العراقي يدرس اقتراح قانون لتوزيع مخصصات النفط على المواطنينIraqi Parliament studying a proposed law for the distribution of oil allocations to citizens
بغداد - عادل مهدي الحياة - 30/01/07//Baghdad-Adel Mahdi life-30 / 01 / 07 / /

وقّع عدد من الشخصيات البرلمانية العراقية اقتراح قانون مخصصات النفط للمواطن العراقي، وقدمه أعضاء جبهة التوافق في مجلس النواب إلى هيئة رئاسة المجلس. وطالبوها بدراسته وإدراجه على جدول أعمال المجلس، بهدف مناقشته وإقراره، في حين قدّم النائب مهدي الحافظ ملاحظاته لـ «الحياة» في شأن اقتراح القانون، تضمنت تعديلات واقتراحات إضافية مكملة له.A number of parliamentary figures Iraqi oil allocations proposed law for the Iraqi people, and the Accord Front members in the House of Representatives to the presidency of the Council. And demanded that she be examined and included in the agenda of the Council, with a view to be discussed and endorsed, while deputy Mahdi Al-Hafiz told his <life> on the proposed legislation, including amendments and suggestions additional supplement.

وتتضمن أهم البنود في القانون المقترح، توزيع مخصصات النفط للمواطنين العراقيين على أساس 20 ألف دينار من واردات النفط لكل طفل وُلد في العراق، حتى بلوغه السادسة من عمره، و 30 ألف دينار لكل عراقي تجاوز السادسة من العمر حتى بلوغه الثامنة عشرة، 50 ألف دينار لكل عراقي أتم الثامنة عشرة.The most important items in the proposed law, the allocation of oil to the Iraqi citizens on the basis of 20 thousand dinars from oil imports every child born in Iraq, until the age of six years old, and 30 thousand Iraqi dinars each exceeded the age of six until the age of eight years, 50 thousand Iraqi dinars each completed eight years.

وتستقطع نسبة لا تقل عن 30 في المئة من واردات النفط وتوزّع على الفئات العمرية المذكورة أعلاه. وتقوم «لجنة النفط والغاز والثروات الطبيعية» في مجلس النواب بتقدير نسبة الـ 30 في المئة نهاية كل سنة، لتعمل الحكومة على صرفها شهرياً على الفئات العمرية المشمولة بالمخصصات.And deduct a proportion of not less than 30% of oil imports and distributed to the age groups mentioned above. The <of the oil, gas and natural resources> in the House estimate of the 30% end of each year, the government is working on the monthly disbursement of the age groups covered allotments.

ووضع النائب الحالي ووزير التخطيط والتعاون الإنمائي سابقاً، مهدي الحافظ، ملاحظات قال فيها ان الفكرة جيدة من حيث المبدأ ومبررة للأسباب المذكورة في اقتراح القانون، ويجب تناولها في إطار الموازنة العامة للدولة، بالارتباط مع حجم المخصصات المرصودة للخدمات العامة والبطاقة التموينية ورواتب المتقاعدين وشبكة الأمان الاجتماعي.And the current Deputy Minister of Planning and Development Cooperation earlier, Mahdi Hafidh, remarks in which he said that the idea is good in principle, and justified for the reasons mentioned in the proposal of the law, and must be addressed within the framework of the State's general budget, in conjunction with the size of allocations for public services and the ration card and the salaries of retirees and the social safety net.

وأضاف أن رَصد نسبة 30 في المئة من عائدات النفط، أي اكثر من 10 بلايين دولار سنوياً غير ممكن مع الاحتفاظ بحجم الإنفاق نفسه على المجالات المذكورة أعلاه. فالتعديلات في الموازنة ضرورية لتشمل النسبة المقترحة للمخصصات في اقتراح القانون والاعتبارات أو المعايير المهمة لوضع المقترح بصيغته المناسبة، تشمل إعطاء أهمية خاصة للمخصصات المدرجة في موازنة السنة الجارية في شأن المجالات الاستثمارية، البالغة 10 بلايين دولار.He added that the monitoring of the proportion of 30% of the oil revenues, or more than $ 10 billion annually is not possible while maintaining the same volume of expenditure on the above-mentioned areas. Changes in the budget necessary to include the proposed allocations in the proposal and considerations or standards task to develop the proposal, as appropriate, including giving special importance to the provision included in the current year's budget, in the areas of investment, amounting to 10 billion dollars.

ودعا الحافظ الى التفكير في اقتراح صندوق مستقل لهذه المخصصات بنسب توزيع جديدة، في ضوء مجالات الإنفاق الأخرى على رفاهية المجتمع المذكورة أعلاه. واقترح له تسمية «الصندوق الاجتماعي» أو «صندوق الرفاه الاجتماعي» كما في بعض البلدان الأجنبية النفطية.The keeper to think about the proposal for independent fund these allocations new distribution rates, in the light of other areas of expenditure on the welfare of the community above. He suggested naming him <SFD> or <Social Welfare Fund,> and in some foreign countries oil.

We know according to a recent news item, that we're getting a reval in the new budget - but can we get any kind of confirmation from valued contacts on the ground in Iraq?

It would sure give us something to chew on while we're waiting!
