Baghdad


Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri Al Maliki has announced a new four-point plan aimed at reducing sectarian violence.

The plan, involving setting up local security committees in each area, came after intensive talks with top politicians.

They have been engaged in bitter recriminations as violence has risen, especially in Baghdad.

Shia politicians had accused senior Sunni figures of providing cover for terrorist attacks.

With the situation on the ground worsening rapidly, the political climate within the national unity government was also becoming increasingly envenomed.

The Sunnis accused Shias in the government apparatus of allowing their own militias to carry out sectarian abductions and murders on a huge scale.

With the death toll from sectarian violence reaching ever-higher levels and new atrocities happening every day, something had to be done.

Maliki held emergency talks with senior figures from all the major factions represented in the government.

He gave them a stern warning that the situation was getting out of control.

They agreed to a four-point plan aimed at stemming the sectarian violence.

Special committees are to be set up in each district with representatives of all the major factions to monitor the drive to halt the carnage.

A similar central committee will co-ordinate with the security forces involved.

One senior Sunni leader said that if everybody stuck to their commitments, sectarian strife would be ended.

If not, he warned, Iraq would be finished.

BAGHDAD, 03 October 2006 (Middle East Online)
Baghdad was abuzz Sunday over revelations of a plot to attack the heavily fortified Green Zone, the seat of the government, as parliament cancelled a session to discuss a contentious law.

Traffic was moving again on Baghdad's streets after the end of a total curfew, which brought the city to a halt between Friday evening and Sunday morning, trapping residents in their homes during the holy month of Ramadan.

Shortly after the curfew's end, however, a car bomb exploded near a US patrol killing at least one bystander, in a sharp reminder of the conflict that was killing more than 100 people per day before the lock-down.

The vehicle ban was believed to be prompted by US revelations that a security guard working for senior Sunni politician Adnan al-Dulaimi was involved in a plot to carry out multiple car bombings in the Green Zone.

Parliamentarians decided to postpone their session, which would have featured the second reading of a contentious law on federalism that would lay down the mechanisms for carving the country up into autonomous regions.

"The session is postponed until tomorrow because of what happened with Dulaimi - we want to know what is going on exactly," said a deputy from the Shiite parliamentary bloc.

Another parliamentarian, however, rushed to say there was no relation between the two events and insisted the decision had been made three days earlier, though this was the first indication there would be a delay.

US officials and Sunni leaders were careful to say the arrest of Dulaimi's guard in no way implicated him in the plot, but Shiite politicians were quick to demand that any possible links must be investigated.

Ahdab field, was given to China National Petroleum Corp. and Chinese state arms manufacturer Norincom, with an estimated development cost of $700 million. Sources at the Iraqi government said that Ahdab is taking a high priority because of its closeness to new power stations and refineries.

Iraqi oil minister said that his country desires to raise exports to the Asian market, especially China and Japan, due to the growing economic in those countries.
