  2. BAGHDAD (Reuters) – Iraq's Shi'ite-led blocs on Tuesday gave themselves five days to pick a single candidate for prime minister, and one politician said the incumbent, Nuri al-Maliki, was in a strong position to gain a second term. Members of the Iran-friendly Iraqi National Alliance (INA) and of Maliki's State of Law coalition met in his office to try to end six months of political deadlock since the March vote. They said afterwards they had decided to pick one candidate by consensus, and to abandon all coalition talks with other parties until they had a single nominee for prime minister. "Doubtless all the indications suggest that Mr Maliki has the best chance," former deputy speaker of parliament and senior member of State of Law, Khalid al-Attiya, told Reuters. The March 7 election produced no outright winner and as yet no new government, pitching Iraq into political uncertainty just as U.S. troops scaled back their strength to 50,000 before an August 31 deadline to end combat operations. Frequent attacks by insurgents linked to al Qaeda have tested the mettle of Iraqi security forces, raised tension and tried to undermine the Shi'ite-led authorities. Overall, violence has fallen sharply since the height of sectarian carnage in 2006-07, but Iraq remains fragile, and the protracted political impasse has raised fears the country could fall back into bloodshed on a broader scale. The alliance that won the most seats in the 325-seat parliament was former premier Iyad Allawi's cross-sectarian Iraqiya alliance, heavily backed by minority Sunnis. But Iraqiya, which has 91 seats in the new parliament, two more than State of Law, has been unable to win others to its side to form a working majority. Maliki's State of Law merged with the INA after the vote to form the National Alliance, with a total of 159 seats, but his partners refused to support his bid for a new term and nominated outgoing vice president Adel Abdul-Mahdi as a rival candidate. State of Law and the INA will have to choose one of the two but participants at Tuesday's meeting did not say how they would do that. "It has been agreed that consensus will be the basis for choosing the prime minister and a period of five days has been set to agree on a single nominee for the National Alliance," said Nassar Rubaie, a lawmaker from fiery anti-American cleric Moqtada al-Sadr's movement. "Otherwise we will try other mechanisms," Rubaie said. Rubaie said that once the National Alliance had selected a single candidate for prime minister, it would reach out to other alliances to form a government "of national unity." A senior member of Iraqiya, Salman al-Jumaili, said his coalition would not join a sectarian government. "Iraqiya ... will not deal with a sectarian government that adopts sectarianism as a principle," said Jumaili. (Writing by Michael Christie; editing by Tim Pearce)
  3. BAGHDAD (AP) -- Iraq has signed a deal with an international company to jointly operate 66 ships in a major step toward restoring the country's war-ravaged cargo fleet, an Iraqi official said Tuesday. Iraq currently has only two cargo ships and four oil tankers. The country's fleet of oil tankers and cargo vessels was devastated by shelling during the 1980-88 war with Iran and attacks during the 1991 U.S.-led Gulf War. Ismat Jiad, head of the state-run Maritime Transportation Co., said the five-year deal with Global Refinery, a unit of a company based in the British Virgin Islands, will help Iraq develop its maritime business and train merchant crews. "This deal will give us the opportunity to develop our infrastructure and business in addition to upgrading our staff," said Jiad, adding that the deal could later be extended for five more years. He said the fleet will transport goods to and from Iraq and will work mainly with the Iraqi government. "All these 66 ships are ready for work now," he said. The company is part of Saracen Trade and Investment Inc., which is registered in the British Virgin Islands
  4. Thank you so much for taking the time to speak with me today, I really enjoyed your honesty and look forward to your many posts. God Bless!
  5. This is my first post even thou I have been following this site for some time. I have spoken with Rudy today myself after reading his very knowledgeable post. I feel that he has nothing to lose or gain in posting his theory. I have read many many others and I found his to be RIGHT ON TARGET! I am a small town middle class stay at home mom who has lived pay check to pay check for years. I read some of these posts and think "wow what did he say?"But after reading Rudy's I can totally understand everything. He talks about things that I have thought about my self. It just makes since. Why would we go over seas to help another country unless we were going to get something back in return, face it people the U.S. is not that nice.
