The last date I read for the Arab Summit was March 29th But you know how things change by the minute in Iraq !!!!!

Najafi seems like he's on a mission to get SOMETHING DONE !!! Yea !!! Every step counts.

I think I took this article the way you meant it GregP.... That they will have interesting news by March 1st that they will want out in all languages ??? anyway , it made me go HMMMMMM.

Thanks Carla, Happy Valentines day to you too !!!!!

Thanks for the post papster, I so hate hanging my hopes on this Summit, like I did last year.... But I am !!! So Carrello I'll take March 4th Come on guys get this done, You've got Kings and Queens coming for dinner !!!!

I gave up on Bahrain and it took me about 20 mins do the rest !!!! I guess I really shouldn't be admitting this

And from 1 article yesterday... they only have to impress everyone for 3 hours

I agree.. good catch, The Arab Summit is supposed to be 3/29 so I would think that the National Meeting should be first.

Okay they are in line now, so give them something to work with !!!! Thanks for the post Trooper

Absolutely not Stryker... there are way to many of us here at DVland that look for your posts, your breakdown and your opinions !!!! your spelling is fine with me !!!

Your statement of " over time " makes me want to vomit right on you !!!!! Being on this ride for over 8 years I feel enough time has passed for this to come into it's own !!!!! What is your idea of time ???? We are still there helping Iraq become a player in the big world, it is time for them to stop talking and start doing !!! And it's time for you to stop typing and sell what you have. Carrello I don't know why you were negged I gave a +1 to even you out.. the nerve of some people Thanks Stryker for your break down always a pleasure to read

Carrello.... Help please, I don't understand the translation... Is he saying they should hit rock bottom so they can come to a conclusion... I'm sorry but I'm lost

There's that phrase by Najafi again ALL parties KEEN on ending crisis !!!! I like it Thanks RSS all good posts should be rewarded

I thought that also, but who knows now ??? Hell they only have to impress them for 3 hours now Keep the quips coming Carrello, I think we are in the need

Absolutely not !!!! I'm not letting this article affect me in anyway, I honestly believe the Big Boys in the sandbox like, Talabani and Barzani are tired of Sadr, Allawi and the list. I don't think any of them hold much weight anymore. Oh by the way this is JMHO !!

Hot Diggity dog.... seems like our train is doing a little more than a chug lately I like that all parties are keen to end the crisis.... About time Thanks for the news Lady C

Thanks for the post Carrello, Did you let them know that you are in charge of the party hats???? Seriously, I can not believe in my heart, they will host Kings and Queens with out a currency worth being proud of !!!!

I wonder what Allawi's part in this is ??? Such corruption in one country. Thanks for the post Carrello

Ali Hussein’s challenge to find a person who feels comfortable and happy in Iraq, except for politicians and their families and Mqrbém and those who followed them, when they removed the statue of Saddam from Firdous Square thought the Iraqis that they will live happiest days of their lives did not expect the bonds of the country Sfk and people Sttafrq sects and following thanks to the wisdom of our leaders the distinguished have not stopped since that day for all that is Athafena failure and impulsive. If Afterdha that nothing in politics happens by chance, it is supposed to draw the greeting great for the owners and some of his associates because they have traded files such as development, health, education, unemployment and housing to another file named apology Mutlaq, every day, wake up the Iraqis to a new question Do you apologize Mutlaq? To inflict on another question whether al-Maliki would accept the apology? To find all themselves in front of a new game called Game-Maliki and al-Mutlaq, which until this moment no one knows how to decrypt Who would have believed that the change made ​​for him the Iraqis for three decades sacrifices could end up into the arena of boxing between Kamal Saadi and Haider Mulla, and whether it is fair Dulaimi, the first Arab woman to become Secretary of touring Boukhatrha days that the issue of women and their freedom will end to the Minister are equal abomination of the devil, and is home in mind Mohamed Hadid and Hussein Jamil, Mohammad Reza Shabibi, Jaafar Abu Altman that the corridors of Parliament will give speeches resonant received high Nassif or lecture in love Government was sought by Abbas al-Bayati. day wonder all do what we got was due to the advance planning or is it the result of policies of random produced all this bitter reality. regardless of the answer result and one which we are after more than nine years of change, we do not find two people only agree on one thing It is the apologize Mutlaq, what are the benefits that would accrue to the Iraqis if al-Maliki before the apology. almost that I am confident that the Prime Minister, along with some of his associates laugh every morning as they watched busy people the issue of apology Mutlaq, so that the emergence of this issue and other issues at this time, in itself, an opportunity for the disappearance and the disappearance of files related to people’s lives and their future and their security and their economy. Today, we lost and wonder; whichever is the most dangerous in Iraq, the issue of apology Mutlaq?, or avalanche of political favoritism and opportunism and conflict on the benefits and positions and the absence of security and lack of services and rampant unemployment?. Thus in every time you put us government and Mqrbuha two choices only two, silence, this option poses in every crisis faced by the government, of course, with the engagement debate about which is better for people, to become Mahmoud al-Mashhadani, a deputy prime minister, or give the job Emeritus to Sheikh Abdul Latif Alhmim, do you go-Mutlaq, crawling on his knees begging for sympathy Maliki to forgive him or expelled to begin the construction phase and development, Sathemena some Baltgni on the government and I made ​​up the facts and events, but believe me this what is going on behind the scenes at the government and on boards of many Mqrbhe things go this way, everyone wants us not to talk about Timeout percent on given by Maliki himself and the absence of justice and the accounting looters of public funds and disable the economy, do not move any file unless the al-Mutlaq, raising his book to apologize on his hands, so jump the government, above all demands of the people to get an earful overwhelming close they declare clear voice that the services and security and providing the requirements of a decent life parked on the paper’s apology written by al-Mutlaq, His blood. Imagine with me, if the government made ​​peace with its people, instead of push is not reasonable in the battles of determination, I will ensure in this case, you can find the same cover Istrha and exempting them from the humiliation of stand naked under the eyes of all Iraqis.

I hope they go through with it this year March 29th sounds great to me
