Despite remaining in the Dawa Party, current Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi and his predecessor, Nuri al-Maliki, will run the elections on two separate lists. The neutrals of the Dawa Party leaders say that this diversity will be a source of benefit for the party and the coalition of the state of law, because there are those who support Abbadi and do not support al-Maliki, and vice versa, so the voices of those who support this and those who oppose it will return like Haroun al-Rashid's outfall to the main coalition. 

But opponents, some of whom are leaning against my slaves against Maliki, and vice versa see that the reason for the separation between the two men back to the "number one", which should top the list. 

"Maliki refused the conditions that Abadi wanted to impose on him, which is either to be number one on the list, while Maliki occupies the number 2, or to accept Abbadi to be the number 2 versus the number one of the owners, Provided that Maliki pledged to Abadi support the second mandate ». This still gets the "number one" in many of the lists and blocks that have been announced is the obstacle to the official announcement, although it was officially registered with the Electoral Commission late yesterday because of the refusal of the Commission extension. Stressing that «differences between Abadi and Maliki did not stand when the registration number one in the list of one election, but back to the origin of the story of the arrival of Abbadi to the post of prime minister, contrary to the desire of Maliki, which has taken root during the past four years of the receipt of Abadi prime minister», Abadi, when he put such conditions on al-Maliki was well known that a stubborn man like al-Maliki will not accept them, and therefore was a justification for his exit from the coalition of state law and running the elections in the list called (Victory) is holding talks with the (crowd) With them'.

A leading figure in the Dawa Party and pro-Maliki Khalaf Abdul Samad, believes for his part that «the Dawa Party is greater than the people who belong to him, even if they are leaders the size of Maliki or Abadi», indicating in television statements that «everyone who came out of the (Dawa) Many of whom were Ibrahim al-Jaafari (former prime minister and current foreign minister).

Haider al-Abadi Nouri al-Maliki Iraq

A+AA-

WASHINGTON DC, United States (Kurdistan 24) – Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi is little but “another sectarian Iran proxy, just like [Nouri] al-Maliki,” Iraq’s previous prime minister, a regular blogger to the prestigious Foreign Policy magazine wrote on Tuesday.

The US helped Maliki become prime minister in 2006, but by 2014, when the Islamic State (IS) attacked Iraq, he was seen as a Shia partisan, whose sectarian policies had contributed to IS’ emergence and its conquest of one-third of the country.

As a condition of US support system" rel="">support for the fight against IS, Washington demanded Maliki’s resignation, replacing him with his deputy—Abadi.

The State Department, charged now with executing US policy in Iraq, has embraced Abadi as the man who can contain Iran in Iraq. Foreign Policy echoed the State Department’s position last month when it named Abadi as one of the 100 most prominent global thinkers of 2017.

In explaining why it chose Abadi for the honor, Foreign Policy made a fundamental mistake. It asserted: Iraq’s “prime minister is already gearing up for his re-election campaign in the spring of 2018.”

Abadi was never elected Iraqi prime minister, so he cannot be re-elected! Abadi simply replaced Maliki, when the US insisted that he step down.

As a Kurdish member of Iraq’s parliament remarked to Kurdistan 24, in the last Iraqi elections—in April 2014—just before IS’ onslaught into Iraq began, Abadi received only 4,000 votes. That is a small number.

And, Rachel Avraham, a regular contributor to “Foreign Policy Blogs,” strongly criticized the magazine’s decision to honor the Iraqi Prime Minister as a significant global thinker.

“Under Abadi,” the Kurdistan Region “is gravely suffering” after 180,000 Kurds “were forced to run for their lives when the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, the Iraqi Army, and the Shia Popular Mobilization Forces invaded” the city of Kirkuk and other disputed areas.

“Following their invasion,” Avraham writes, “the Iraqi Army and its allies have been kidnaping, gang raping, and arresting people” whom they regard as Kurdish nationalists.

The Kurdistan Region hosts 1.8 million Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and refugees from IS, including many Christians and Yezidis. Their numbers have swelled the population of Kurdistan by 30 percent, and their humanitarian needs have imposed a significant financial burden on the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG).

Baghdad has contributed “zero funds” to support system" rel="">support the IDPs and refugees, even as its seizure of Kirkuk and its oil has cut the revenues of the KRG in half, Avraham noted.

Moreover, Abadi has imposed an embargo on international flights to the Kurdistan Region’s two major airports “making it difficult for other countries to send humanitarian aid to Kurdistan,” while imposing further economic hardship on the Region.

“If Abadi was a unifier of Iraq and not a sectarian dictator,” Avraham asked, “why has he refused to have any dialogue with the Kurds?”

“Why has he imposed such a brutal blockade on the Kurds, just for expressing their democratic rights” in their independence referendum?

“Why does he have his forces arrest, kidnap, and gang rape Kurdish citizens?”

Indeed, Avraham suggested that Abadi is no great thinker at all, but is most comparable to “Maliki, Bashar al-Assad, Ayatollah Khomeini, Ismail Haniyeh, or any other Iranian-backed sectarian dictator.”

Maliki and Abadi compete to miss the "call" for the elections for the first time

 Baghdad / Mohammed Sabah 
 

The Dawa Party leadership decided during a meeting of the two parties yesterday evening to remove the party from the elections and allow its members to stand on other lists. It will be the first time that the Dawa Party will be absent from the elections.

The agreement came as a compromise to overcome the growing competition within the Dawa party to preside over the electoral lists between party secretary Nuri al-Maliki and Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi. 
The move comes two days after the end of the registration period of political alliances. And after the prime minister failed to resolve his options in the next phase, unlike Maliki, who seemed confident of running the elections by presiding over the lists of the Dawa party and the coalition of the rule of law. 
The Electoral Commission has kept the door close to the Dawa Party leaders to resolve their differences, as did not announce, as expected, the names of the alliances and the number of the end of official office last Thursday. 
"The leadership of the Islamic Dawa Party met on Saturday afternoon and decided to adopt a series of decisions in favor of the call and unity of ranks and submitted a request to the Electoral Commission," a source in the Dawa Party said late on Saturday.
The source added that "the meeting agreed not to enter the Islamic Dawa Party as a political party in the political and electoral alliances registered with the Department of Parties in the Electoral Commission, specifically in the elections of the Council of Representatives and the provinces of 2018. 
The source added that "the meeting agreed that the members of the party at all levels of organizational and leadership full freedom to participate in the elections with their personal addresses and not partisan and nomination in any list or another coalition." 
The Dawa party leadership decided that "members of the party at all levels of leadership and organization with their personal addresses will preside over any of the electoral lists and decided to establish an organizational forum for preachers and form a coordination committee between the two lists and useful technical decisions."
Later, the Dawa Party, through its political office headed by Haider al-Abadi, issued a statement saying that "the party will mobilize its energies in supporting the loyalists and national lists, leaving its members and supporters free to vote, vote and vote in the lists and political coalitions registered within the principles, Framework of laws in force ". "The party does not see the need to come down in its name in the upcoming elections of 2018." 
Under the Dawa Party's ruling, party candidates may run as members of other lists or lead other alliances, as the prime minister, who intends to run for election, wants through the Alliance of Victory and Reform. 
However, individual candidacy in any of the lists requires joining after the break from the other party, and political alliances are not considered a political entity according to the instructions of the Electoral Commission.
Yesterday, the Electoral Commission clarified the gap facing the decision of the Dawa Party, but the members of the Council of the Commission apologized for the answer to their preoccupation with a trip to the Kurdistan region. 
On Monday, the commission is expected to announce final results for the registration of political alliances that plan to run in the next election. 
"After the election commission announced the closure of the registration of coalitions for Thursday's elections, it has become unable to register a new entity or allow alliances to manipulate its lists," said former election commissioner Gulshan Kamal. 
"There is a problem in the election coalitions of the Dawa Party, which has been divided into two electoral lists, which is prohibited by the law of the influential parties," Kamal said in a statement.
And draws the former member of the Commission to "the existence of another problem is the registration of the entity of the Dawa Party and a coalition of state law in the name of Nuri al-Maliki is prohibited by the law of parties," considering that "the solution to this problem lies within the Dawa Party and not the Electoral Commission." 
Kamal stressed that "the law of the parties in force does not allow any party to participate in the electoral process on two separate lists on the grounds that each party has its own program prepared to participate in the upcoming elections," calling on the Commission to "intervene to prevent the splitting of any party to the lists." 
The former member of the Commission to "the existence of another problem facing the election process of delayed legislation of the election law in the House of Representatives," noting that "any electoral process needs ninety days to legislate the election law to complete the elections."

But the member of the legal committee MP Sadik al-Laban says that "is unlikely to ratify the Parliament on the law and the dates of the elections in Sunday's session," pointing out that "the heads of blocs will intensify their meetings to reach compromise solutions to resolve all the problems." 
"I expect the adoption of the law and the timing of the parliamentary elections during the meetings of the Council of Representatives this week," pointing out that "the parliamentary blocs will meet in the House of Representatives to develop a plan to resolve all the differences that hinder the passage of the election law and the approval of the dates" . 
The (extent) has revealed on 24 December last a scenario traded by political parties and proposed by one of the blocks to get out of the election crisis, including the delay of the ballot for five months, instead of the next May, which was approved by the government.
And on the alliances of an independent bloc to which he belongs, says frankincense that "the cluster has decided and joined with the list of victory, headed by Haider Abadi with other political parties."

The Iraqi Communist Alliance with the Sadr Party confuses civil coalitions

 Baghdad / Wael Ne'ma 
 

The Sadrist movement decided to form a coalition of currents that did not participate in the previous elections, except for the Communist Party and the Republican Rally led by Saad Assem al-Janabi.

The exit of the Iraqi Communist Party from its ally, the Alliance of Civil Democratic Forces (Progress), led to the disintegration of the latter and replacing it with the "democratic civil coalition" which includes four streams. The "civil" expresses its regret for the dispersion of "non-Islamic" political forces in multiple lists. The number of lists bearing the civil slogan of 40 parties and political entity out of 204 recorded by the Electoral Commission. "The Party of Integrity", formed by the leader of the Sadrist movement recently, at the top of the pyramid of the new alliance, which combines with the Iraqi Communist for the first time. The new party is considered an alternative to the Liberal bloc, which will forgo the political work of the next four years, at Sadr's direction. Until now, al-Sadr has not ruled out any of the Liberal bloc members from blocking the 2018 election.
Unlike the Sadrists, Ammar al-Hakim, the leader of the National Wisdom Movement, decided to stand alone in an alliance (wisdom and construction). The youthful stream of wisdom is counting on the confusion of its rivals and the recycling of faces and alliances to raise its fortunes in the upcoming elections. 
The Shiite forces had decided to form a coalition of state law, led by Deputy Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, with other lists close to him. 
In front of the alliance (Fatah Almubain), headed by the leader of the Badr bloc Hadi al-Amiri, and includes figures who have already announced their resignation from military action in the popular crowd in preparation for the election, most notably Asaib Ahl al-Haq as well as 13 political parties, particularly the Supreme Islamic Council.

Sadr alliance 
and on the movements of supporters of the Sadrist movement in the upcoming elections, says Amir Kanani, "Sadr did not form any list, but said he would support the coalition that will enter the party of integrity." 
Late last year, Jaafar al-Moussawi, deputy head of the Sadrist political movement, announced the formation of the National Integrity Party. Moussawi said at the time that "the party came under the guidance of His Eminence Mr. Moqtada al-Sadr to form a national bloc cross-sectarianism and nationalism and quotas." Amir al-Kanani, in a statement to (the extent) yesterday, that "the party of integrity includes academic cadres and figures of independent technocrats." 
The party is headed by Hasan Abdullah al-Aquli, who is the head of the Najaf medical clinic, and has previously run for the Liberal Party in the 2013 elections.
The Al-Istiqama party, according to Kanani, entered the Alliance of Reformers, which includes the Communist Party, and Saad Asim al-Janabi, head of the Republican Rally, which failed in the previous elections to win any seat. 
The member of the political body of the Liberal bloc that "the alliance is the National Alliance, which joined the party supported by the Sadrist movement," denying "the participation of the Liberal movement in the coalition, despite being registered as a political party." 
The leader of the Sadrist movement announced, in December, his intention to form a "national bloc passing", and called the Liberal bloc to not run for elections. 
"Al-Kanani has not yet allowed the participation of any of the Liberal bloc, or former deputies to run for the upcoming elections." Bahaa al-Araji, the former deputy prime minister, had previously confirmed to al-Mada that he was "not interested in Sadr's orders because he left the current for a period."
In the meantime, unconfirmed reports of Araji's intention to enter the list of Iyad Allawi, which includes Parliament Speaker Salim al-Jubouri and Saleh al-Mutlaq. 
On Thursday, the Electoral Commission called on registered coalitions to submit names of candidates from January 4 to February 10. 
The former MP of the Liberal bloc believes that "the registration door will be extended until February 20," noting that "there are prominent figures will join the alliance are among the candidates of the list." The Sadrist movement has entered the previous elections with 3 lists, which received 34 seats.

The absence of communists 
In the meantime, the coalition of civil democratic forces, known as Progress (Progress), to form a new alliance after the withdrawal of the Communist Party, and join the coalition, supported by Moqtada al-Sadr. 
Ahmed Ali Ibrahim, a member of the Executive Office of the Social Democratic Movement, one of the components of the new civil coalition, said that the latter "entered into a new alliance instead of the alliance with (Progress), which is called the civil democratic coalition." 
"The coalition includes a rally for democracy and the fingerprint of Iraq, in addition to the national initiative led by Ghassan al-Attiyah," Ibrahim told Al-Mada. 
The new alliance is headed by Ali al-Rafi'i, former head of the Progressive Alliance, which was surprised, late, to register another party of the same name (Progress).
The member of the civil current regrets what he called "the dispersal of civilian forces, despite the arrival of 40 of the 204 parties registered in Iraq." He stressed that "the node of leadership in the civil currents, much more complex than in the Islamic forces, which differ at times because of the number one on the list." 
The civil current had won 3 seats in the 2014 elections, and split two deputies, namely Shorouq Al-Abiji, and Sheikh Ali. The two deputies joined the Tamden coalition, which is close to the Sason alliance. The head of the civil coalition bloc, Mithal al-Alusi, is absent from the political scene, as it is not clear whether he will participate in the upcoming elections.

Hakim solo 
In parallel, the stream of wisdom led by Ammar al-Hakim out of the limelight. The head of the wisdom bloc Habib terminal that the alliance "will compete alone." 
In July, al-Hakim decided to split from the Supreme Council, which was founded in the 1980s, because of disagreements with the veteran council leaders. 
"The current alliances are confused, and if they win the elections, they will form a government that is far from the technocrats," Habib said. "Our current is tired of talking about political participation that is becoming a quota." 
The party criticizes the programs and similar orientations of the parties, which announced their intention to run in the new elections, and stresses that "the stream of wisdom alone can be a high voice in the upcoming elections." 
The Supreme Council had won 29 seats, in the elections of 2104, which fought under the name of "

Iraqi PM Abadi announces candidacy for May elections

Shiite Muslim who led Iraq in four-year war against IS set to seek re-election in May parliamentary vote as head of new coalition.

Middle East Online

Abadi is credited for quickly rebuilding the army after its collapse under al-Maliki BAGHDAD - Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi announced plans Sunday to run for re-election in May at the head of a new coalition separate from key rival and Dawa party co-member Nuri al-Maliki. Abadi said in a statement he set up the "Victory Alliance" coalition as a "cross-sectarian" list aimed at overcoming divisions and battling inequalities in the country. The coalition, the 65-year-old premier said, would strive to "protect the victory and the sacrifices" of the Iraqi people and to "fight against corruption... (and for) the unity of Iraq". Abadi declared victory in December in the three-year war by Iraqi forces to expel the Islamic State jihadist group from the vast areas north and west of Baghdad it had seized in 2014. Abadi had announced the previous month that Iraq's next parliamentary election would be held on May 15. The capture by jihadists of nearly one third of Iraq came under the rule of Maliki, the current vice president and former prime minister who ceded power to Abadi in August that year. Abadi and Maliki are both members of the Shiite Dawa party which has held the Iraqi premiership since 2006, three years after dictator Saddam Hussein was ousted in a US-led invasion. Maliki is running in the parliamentary election at the head of his "State of Law" alliance, which won most of the votes in the previous polls of 2014. The creation of separate lists seems to indicate deep personal divisions within the Dawa party. But Maliki's spokesman, Abbas al-Mussawi, said the party backs both lists. "The fact that two list are being put forth does not mean a clash between two people, but a confrontation between visions, programmes and different alliances," Mussawi said.
