Thread: Iraq/Dinar News. 09/05 to 01/14/07

Seems that the Iraqiis are somewhat concerned about the sudden change in the political waters here in the good ole USA.

Adoption of the failure of Bush administration in Iraq would affect the government's support Maliki

Voices of Iraq : Baghdad
Following the adoption of American President George Bush that his policy in Iraq was a major reason for the defeat of his Republican party in the mid-term legislative elections, and Democrats control both houses of Congress seats, Analysts expected the Iraqis Siasieon affect this delayed recognition of the American support to the Iraqi government headed by Nuri al-Maliki.
Member of the House of Representatives on (the coalition ideology) Mahmoud Othman said that this recognition would influence the American policy in Iraq. He pointed out that there will be pressure on Maliki. With the continued support in order to speed up the training of Iraqi forces, disbanding the militias, and the implementation of national reconciliation.
He explained Osman News Agency (Voices of Iraq) Independent Thursday that the rapid creation of Iraqi forces will be to prepare for the gradual withdrawal of American troops from Iraq.
He admitted to the American President Bush. during a press conference held at the White House, following the announcement of the victory of the Democrats, that Iraq had a major impact on the election results, He acknowledged that the American people a voice to express his dissatisfaction with the development has not been achieved in Iraq.
Among the Democrats control of both houses of Congress, after that harvested fewer than 229 seats in the House of Representatives. For 204 seats for the Republicans, It also won 51 seats in the Senate, of the total 100 members. .And competing for another seat.
He Mohamed Osman expressed his belief that the national reconciliation in Iraq might mean for Americans to involve the largest possible number of the Baathists who have not committed crimes against the Iraqi people. as well as opposition leaders abroad.
.He continued : "America does not have a policy against Baathists. there's contacts with representatives of Iraqi opposition groups abroad.
The press reports stated that the American administration had sent representatives to an Arab capital (Oman) to hold meetings with representatives of the Iraqi armed groups and the identification of the demands to stop military operations and engage in the political process in the country.
The Kurdish political, a member of the second largest parliamentary bloc (55 seats in the House) saying : It may be pressure in the direction of the demands of the (Iraqi) claimants greater role in the political process. pointing to what he had said to the king of Jordan a few days ago in Britain when he said that we have to understand the suffering of the Shiites and the Kurds previously. And the suffering of the year now.
Othman commented on the speech of the Jordanian monarch, King was not speaking in isolation from Britain and the United States.
And on Bush to dismiss Minister of Defense Donald Rumsfeld after the announcement of the election results, Kurdish MP pointed out that the impeachment was too late. Has been imposed on President Bush because of the serious errors committed by Rumsfeld on the Iraqi file over the past three and a half years.
The American president announced Wednesday. to accept the resignation of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, and nominated Robert Bob Gates to replace him. in the first result of the vote against the policies of the American administration in the current Iraq.
Osman said : it must be changed (Rumsfeld) for a long time and not now, I asked a parliamentarian for more than two years after his dismissal (scandal) Abu Ghraib prison. He was responsible.
The American administration can save by his dismissal in a timely manner. A review of the overall policy on Iraq.
He expressed confidence that the American strategy in Iraq will changeThere must be a common look between the Republicans and Democrats, It will take into account the recommendations of (the Baker) on the reforms needed in the Iraqi reality.
.But a member of the House of Representatives from the United Iraqi Alliance, Dr. Nadim Al-Gabri expressed his belief that the Americans support to the government of Maliki shrink in the coming days.
He told Al-Gabri (Voices of Iraq) to imagine that they (the Americans) will not be able to continue to support the government to indefinitely. And I would imagine that the coming days will witness a contraction in support, Perhaps their negative attitude. Because they supported the former Iraqi government but did not Thaqqk nothing, It may pay to reconsider their support.
He pointed out that all possibilities are open in the American administration dealing with the Iraqi government. in exchange, without clarifying whether it is (changing) the government or changing American policy towards it.
He expected member of the largest parliamentary bloc (130 of the 275 seats in the House) the coming period to witness important changes on the level of military strategy and political strategy. Perhaps rebuild (the Americans) to look into the mechanisms that were built by the experience in Iraq. The review (thus) in alliances with Iraqi forces.
Al-Gabri and drew a professor of political science at the University of Baghdad. that failure in the American military strategy in Iraq to control the security situation caused by the military strategy itself. The leadership and political strategy.
He added : The contribution of the Iraqi political elites in this failure for not possess a democratic culture. The sum failure occurred in the building of political experience in Iraq. , which quoted from the hateful dictatorship to the chaos abhorrent, But a member of the House of Representatives (Accord Front), Dr. Iyad al-Samarra'i is another point of view, it is believed that the Masrah Bush announced yesterday following the outcome of the elections was an attempt to coordinate between him and the Democrats, to prevent confusion in the administration. Which will have a negative impact on U.S. foreign policy.

Maliki :He will put in a historic upset that to my partners.
The consensus being urged not to withdraw from the statements made Alamlihalsiasih
Baghdad / long
Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki that the recent statements made by a number of leaders block consensus on the possibility of withdrawing from the political process. do not express the opinion of many parties in the fall (consensus), He pointed out that he had received communications from members of the bloc deny that those statements reflect the view of the overall (consensus) stressing the importance of strengthening the bonds of understanding and the National Coalition for the completion of the requirements of the political process and to work to end the tensions and strife and violence that impede the progress of political, social and Alaghtasse led in the country.
Al-Maliki said in a comprehensive dialogue yesterday morning with the chairpersons and directors of a number of local newspapers : "What we are hearing from the statements do not represent the view of all the (consensus). we have other statements correspond to those statements, The lack of adoption. He added that the brothers who contacted us interpret such statements as a result of pressure or a certain belong to their aspirations. "
Asked whether the statements threat to withdraw from the political process, the product of pressure or regional applications, in particular, most of the statements stem from the politicians when they are outside the country and in certain countries, the premier said that he has no confirmed information on whether those statements pursuant to the requests of regional, But he added : "We say to our partners in the political process that such statements give messages suggest that it reflects the regional applications," saying : "This process is not useful Ankvaih destructive one. The introduction of the regional group does not serve anyone. The government has legitimacy and strength that can and qualifies as refuse to come to one of the alternative design governments, " asking the States launching such statements "that do not allow this to not be counted by those statements."
The Maliki that "some partners did not take responsibility. They want to reap the benefits and the payment of damages. But what is important and what is required is reaping the benefits of the people and to pay him damages, "saying : "How could they be partners in the political process without that bear their consequences?" as described by some as "Baacletin thinking, and speaking Blsanin. " Emphasizing that the facts and after the change that took place did not allow minor relapse and irreversibility of the development path trodden by the people through elections and the referendum on the constitution, and the face of violence and terror over the past three.
He condemned all relics and statements that are outside the usual political line by calling for the withdrawal from the political process or the threat of bear arms or the launch of adjectives and descriptions for the poor. He pointed to the need "to go back to the level of responsibility and vision of reality Bassirtin eyes. As the pain is suffer the same pain suffered by all Iraqis. "
He criticized Maliki and frankly some mistakes which led to perceptions that the "bodies that meet in the state's institutions, But the vision different. " He said : "The difference firmly led to the clash and conflict." This has led to differences in their positions and statements of the parties in the political process. He attributed this situation to Maliki errors in the accounts and the previous readings of the country's internal and regional levels.
Regarding the statements made secretary general of the Association of Muslim Scholars, Harith al-Dhari of the Arab satellite channel Al-Maliki yesterday I only comment : if the statements are different from what they are raised for the attention. men Aithaddth otherwise. if not believe in these issues, which speaks to the part of the process of rebuilding Iraq.
And on the developments arising from the American elections, and their reflections on the Iraqi Al-Maliki said : "Part apparent perspective of the American role emphasizes the need for the United States to the success of its project in Iraq. Perhaps the outcome of events in Iraq to the American home is clearly a reflection of the importance of success in Iraq. " But he pointed out that in addition to "the Iraq crisis is not security but political crisis between its components, which, if agreed to the besieged security deterioration", "the Iraq crisis was the regional crisis faced with the problem hinder policies and strategies among the regional and international levels." stressing on the importance of regional convergence Ocean and the agreement with the state of political relations and be positive.
He said : "The common vision with great Americans. This experience must not be left to the ideas that do not rise to the level of responsibility. we want Iraq to the level of completion of full sovereignty. "
Commenting on the report published by an Iraqi newspapers recently attributed to the well-informed American sources unidentified, on the option of dollars to save the national government could be led by al-Maliki himself, the Prime Minister strongly denied such allegations. He pointed out that "it is not possible for America to be a party to a coup d'etat in Iraq" can be done to ease the bottleneck other movements such as the withdrawal of troops or withdraw support, but not to go to coups, and he "would not put in a historic upset that the partners, to deceive or partners. these industries chambers of the dark and delusions. "
In another context, Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki government endeavor to the inadmissibility of a combination of the authority of the State and militias. He said : "I do not hesitate for a moment to say that he could not combine the state and the militias. The state's right and responsibility to protect the citizens and use its powers to impose it. " He continued : "If we adopt the option of militias, the country is not possible to apportion areas, but to the streets as the influence of this group or that. " But Maliki said that "the disbanding subject solve political, economic and security." Pointing out that "the militias known owners know it is possible understanding with them, and this is what is happening, unlike is armed terrorist groups. "
On the normalization of the situation in Kirkuk. the premier emphasized the government's commitment to law and the Constitution with regard to addressing the issue of Kirkuk. Pointing out that it was he who was behind the initiative to form a committee of Kirkuk, stressing that "the wheel in this regard may cause irregularities" which is agreed upon by everybody.
Al-Maliki said : "The leaders together more core partners in the political process and this regard, he referred to contact yesterday with the leadership of Kurdish parties in Arbil which has been reaffirmed by the Kurds not to allow the space-Zawra broadcasting from the territory of Arbil. He denied that the rumors recently that the channel Al Zawra, which has been broadcast for the songs and songs of the rules of earlier broadcasts from the city of Arbil. He said "we await the arrival of the brother of Masoud Barzani, president of the government of the Kurdistan for consultation in the overall public issues. With regard to the relationship between the central government and the territorial government. "
The Prime Minister also emphasized that the cabinet reshuffle expected in the government is "changing the tires. The list of specific targets, "expressing his belief" the faith that the change will include ministers from all the lists. But this will not happen at the expense ratios redistribution. "
Al-Maliki said : "We will discuss the best. after this I will not accept unless sure of the validity of the minister and efficiency. "
The Prime Minister did not rule out the possibility that the change affects ministers, saying security positions : "Everything is possible. But what is important is the consensus of opinion. "
Regarding the impact of political differences to the members of his government, Al-Maliki said : "The Minister detected in the performance depending Katham. The government has maintained a high degree of harmony. political differences do not affect the performance of the government and its work. "

Pulling the troops out before a reval and kiss goodbye to this investment.

Hello Adam and others...I know you're in the UK so you may not be as familiar with the inner workings of our U.S. "guvment". The President as Commander in Chief of our armed forces dictates where those troops will go and where they will stay. The problems that the Democrats can cause (and they will cause them) will be in the areas of budgets and investigations. They can make it very difficult to get funding for our troops' activities in Iraq by holding up appropriations in Congress and/or attaching funding for their own failed programs to spending bills. This forces the President to either veto the whole bill, denying funding to our continued actions in Iraq, or to sign off on it thus allowing the Dems the "pork" they want. Much like the U.S. troops didn't get pulled out of Serbia/Kosovo when Mr. Bush became president, the troops won't get pulled out of Iraq just because the House and Senate have changed dominating parties. The stakes are too great and regardless of what the Dems were preaching while campaigning, they will not do anything to make things in Iraq fail. It would be political suicide for them to repeat what they did back in the days of Vietnam. If they do things that demean or hurt our troops and they'll be right back out on their asses come 2008. Just my take from observing things on this end.
