Iraqi to reshuffle Interior Ministry chiefs: NYTimes
(Reuters)

14 October 2006

NEW YORK - The Iraqi Interior Minister said he plans to reshuffle the ministry’s leadership to rid it of sectarian influence, after pressure from Western officials and with political support within Iraq, The New York Times reported on Saturday.


Jawad Al Bolani, in a Friday interview with several US newspapers, affirmed that he had the support of Prime Minister Nuri Kamal Al Maliki, a Shia, to make all necessary changes among his top commanders.

‘We have an urgent need,’ the Times quoted Bolani as saying in what it characterized as his first in-depth conversation with the Western news media. ‘We have to have changes at this level.
He added, ‘All the senior employees of the Interior Ministry are in a cycle of change,’ he said, although he did not elaborate on any plans for changes. Bolani did say that his recommendations were being reviewed by a government committee.

Since taking office in May, Bolani has vowed to clean house at the agency, which oversees Iraq’s police forces, the Times said.

Western officials and Sunni Arab leaders have accused the ministry of harboring senior managers who, during Iraq’s previous government, tolerated or encouraged Shia militias to infiltrate the police forces, the newspaper said.

Bolani, it added, had made some progress in reforming the ministry, such as firing thousands of employees, but Western officials and some Iraqi leaders say he has not had the political support for the necessary purges, especially at the ministry’s higher levels.

Citing US officials close to the ministry, the Times said that among commanders Bolani may replace is the deputy minister of administration Adnan Al Asadi, who is suspected of supporting the Shia militias.

But Bolani denied that, the Times said, though it reported that he insisted he was trying to transform the ministry from top to bottom.

The Times said Bolani sidestepped questions about sectarian and political influence in the ministry and repeatedly refused to confirm or deny whether there was militia influence in his security forces.

But he said he did not approve of the militias, calling them ‘a new threat to the political process of Iraq,’ naming the Mahdi Army, a huge force loyal to the Shia cleric Moktada Al Sadr, the Times said.

Policy - : Rumors about the government save the national government after the failure of a new course of all the traitors to save the Golan. Is there Mtak* but to escape and leave Iraq to the Iraqis. Oh Khun e
By Aliraqnews In the 14 / 10 / 2006 9:29:09 ( 77 readers )

The Washington Post newspaper said that the drop in the security situation in Baghdad has led some politicians to talk about the government of national saving, or what he called the writer David Ignatius military coup, where the government declare a state of emergency and the suspension of parliament, The replacement of Nuri al-Maliki, the Prime Minister's composed of five calls a number of leaders of the former Iraqi army.

The writer says that the rumors about the coup came from more than one source, as curator of the leader of a Sunni Arab States, carrying with him the idea of a government of national salvation, and gave the impression that the United States supports this idea, but a number of Iraqi intelligence officials discussed plans to isolate and unseat the government of Maliki save, he did not rule out the possibility that the members of Iyad Allawi, the former interim Prime Minister. The paper says that the frustration of the government and clear-Maliki year but Shiite leaders said they support the idea of a semi-coup to isolate Maliki. And because the situation is descending into anarchy and chaos, the young leader Muqtada al-Sadr complained of chaos, then according to security sources America, Al-Sadr spoke with officials at the military intelligence saying that there is new numbers from the Shiite death squads are using the Mahdi Army to carry out its work, With the forces of the Revolutionary Guard, Hezbollah and the Iranian activities killings and executions and the al-Sadr that he did not know the activities of these groups and that they knew outside the scope of his authority.
In explanation of the causes of the spread of rumors of a coup in Iraq. The writer says that American officials are questioning why and say that one of the reasons is the past history of the country, which has witnessed a number of bloody coups. The reason is very discouraging of Al-Maliki, The idea that America is given a deadline to move against the militias means that under heavy pressure.
The third reason the writer says that this might have been part of the efforts of the United States to reach a number of leaders and the leaders of the former Ba'athist fighters for the deployment of stability in the country. There is a concept that is spreading within the administration is that the country is standing on the brink of collapse and that is what must be done.
Hence When is the Bush rhetoric in letters, the only hope for is a federal Iraq is through the marginalization of the regions and the delegation of security and administrative functions in the distribution of oil quotas are equally divided, The army remains in troubled areas, which gave the Americans enough time for the withdrawal. But the problem with this option to the Sunni Triangle area of disturbance which will affect these arrangements, At the time, which confirmed last week when Iraqi tribal chieftains for their willingness to stand up to armed groups, However, the strategy relied on the tribes did not succeed in the past. The writer says that America's opportunities in order to achieve an exit strategy in the coming months and creative diplomacy, at the end of the first month of December (December) the date of the next renewal of the legal mandate that the United Nations has told coalition forces. Al-Maliki and Ranger being dragged his feet on the matter, which did not submit to the National Assembly for ratification of the continuation of the occupation. The writer finds that the deadline given America an opportunity to negotiate a phased withdrawal. The other option is a James Baker's proposals revealed by the beginning of this week, that is directed towards a recommendation from the federal to achieve stability in the country.
The writer believes that James Baker, who architect of the Madrid conference in 1991 had not only this, but is moving towards a broader solution to the other issues in the Middle East.
In the same context, the newspaper was suspended Los Angeles Times on Bush's recent statements on Wednesday addressed the Americans saying that America will not defeat terrorism in Iraq, but within the United States. Referring to Bush's problem is that it continues to remain within Iraq would not prevent the collapse of the country towards civil war. especially that the government has become Maliki government factions and parties, not the national government, the second option quick exit means that America will lose its credibility coming out of this, and the impact in Iraq, she would not be able to influence Iraq's neighbors. The newspaper said that with the existence of a link between the defeat of terrorism and securing America and the Iraq war only to simplify things by talking of which Bush meant that the reduction of the two. The paper expressed disappointment at the postponement of the announcement of the results of a study group to study Iraq after the mid-term elections next month, and the disappointment of Bush's recent statements before the election.
