  1. CNN. Broadcasting While Sounding The Iraqi Battle Horn Kazoos - Which Is Sure To Strike Epically Paralyzing Fear Into ‘The Shiite For Brains’ Iranians ! Al-Kazemi responds to Iran's provocations with the Battle of the Land Ports - 4 Hours Ago BAGHDAD - Baghdad responded strongly Saturday to indications indicating Tehran's intention to stimulate hostile security activities inside Iraq, when the Armed Forces Command in Basra, in the south, announced direct drilling of a trench in the vicinity of a border port to cut off drug and arms smuggling from Iran. Pictures showed mechanisms operating under the guard of Iraqi army soldiers to cut off irregular dirt roads used by smugglers linked to armed militias, to introduce drugs and weapons from Iran to Iraq and transfer the US dollar from Iraq to Iran. And the sale of Iranian drugs in Iraq generates big profits, after this country turned from a mere passage of this substance to other countries, to a consumer. Iran depends on selling drugs in the southern Iraqi cities, exchanging the return for the American currency, then returning it from the borders. Iran also provides weapons to its militias and sells to all clans and those willing to possess all the weapons and ammunition they need. Most of this material is introduced through dirt roads near the Shalamcheh border crossing between Iraq and Iran in Basra Governorate. Military sources said that the Iraqi army forces received direct instructions from Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi to stop smuggling operations between Iran and Iraq urgently, confirming that the Basra Operations Command has started since Saturday morning the establishment of a trench protected by an earthen shield that runs along the flat area near the Shalamcheh port, where it was built Militias are dirt roads. This development comes after the Iraqi authorities announced hostile security activities - believed to be carried out by pro-Iranian groups in Baghdad and southern cities - targeting American interests. It also came a few days after Al-Kazemi ended a visit to Tehran, which was surrounded by widespread controversy, and leaked from her that the Iraqi Prime Minister rejected an Iranian request to facilitate Tehran's acquisition of the US dollar. The Iraqi and Iranian governments are reluctant to disclose the nature of the relationship between the two countries now, and whether they are really tense, against the background of the failure of Al-Kazimi's visit to Tehran. Al-Kazemi’s directives did not stop at the level of stopping the smuggling of drugs and weapons from Iran to Iraq through the Shalamcheh outlet. Rather, it extended to include 13 other outlets, the most prominent of which is with Iran, including one with Saudi Arabia that was not opened mainly. The Joint Operations Command, which is the highest military formation in Iraq, said that Al-Kazemi issued directives to “seize all border crossings, enforce the law in them, combat abuses and corruption and waste public money,” announcing its initiation of “allocating security forces to all outlets and the size of the assigned security force according to the nature of each Outlet, where protection responsibility has been defined for all outlets on the Iraqi army’s parts. ” The leadership indicated that the forces empowered to protect the port and the customs sanctuary are “empowered with all legal powers to hold accountable any violation and from whomever it was.” Sources say that this type of measure directly affects militia activity linked to Iran within Iraqi territory. The government's actions reveal a clear plan to tighten control of the road linking Iran and Syria, via Iraq. And if Iran uses its ports with Iraq in Basra and Diyala to introduce weapons, then it uses Anbar outlets to transfer weapons from Syria to Iraq. These measures may provide a picture to answer the question that arises in multiple circles regarding the nature of the relationship between the Kazemi government and Iran. But Al-Kazemi, according to observers, does not want to enter into an all-out war with Iran's arms in Iraq, which is besieged by the stifling economic and health crises. Therefore, Al-Kazemi moves slowly and chooses files that do not raise media hustle, with the aim of strengthening the state’s influence versus that of the militias. Observers say that without the support of the international community, Al-Kazemi may find himself powerless to cope with the tremendous momentum that Iran can manufacture in Iraq, through forces that view the country and its organs lightly.

  3. CNN. Broadcasting While ‘Advising’ The Iranian Puppets In Parliament - That They Have The Right To Be ‘Silenced’ ! Trump's adviser talks to Shafak News about new US sanctions against Iraqi figures 2020-08-09 23:53 A- A A+ Shafaq News / Gabriel Saouma, a member of the advisory board of US President Donald Trump, revealed today, Monday, that the US administration is planning to impose new sanctions against Iraqi figures. And the US Treasury Department previously announced sanctions against a company based in Iraq and two Iraqis for smuggling hundreds of millions of dollars of weapons to Iraqi militias supported by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. This was followed by sanctions against leaders of the Popular Mobilization Forces, Waad al-Qaddo, Rayan al-Kaldani, as well as the former governor of Nineveh, Nawaf al-Sultan, and the former governor of Salah al-Din Ahmad al-Jubouri, linking them to files of corruption and violation of human rights. Soma told Shafaq News, "Frankly, until now, we do not know who are these new Iraqi figures that could be included in the US sanctions, but there is a tendency for the American administration to impose new economic sanctions against Iraqi personalities, because they are also involved in corruption operations, and others." Trump's advisor indicated that "Iraq has many political and governmental figures involved in corruption and has links with international bodies that also have sanctions, explaining," This matter will motivate Washington to impose sanctions on these figures. " And Soma added that" American laws allow the president or the US Treasury Department. " , to impose sanctions on any personal or party, carried out corruption in his country or violated human rights and international law. " Under the US sanctions freeze any assets or potential assets in the United States of individuals and entities concerned, and denial of access to the international financial system.

This decision is the first of its kind; The United States has never classified any foreign governmental entity as a "terrorist organization". Tensions are escalating in the Middle East region, between Iran on the one hand and the United States and its allies, especially Israel and the Gulf states, on the other hand, against the backdrop of the Iranian nuclear program and Tehran's support for armed groups in Arab countries. link

Baglan told (Baghdad Today), "In every meeting between the Kurdistan Regional Government and the federal government in Baghdad, the region demands the application of the constitution and asylum to the Federal Court in contentious issues, but different governments in Baghdad apply it selectively." He added that "any agreement between the two governments will be temporary, because all previous agreements are not implemented and Baghdad will soon be disavowed due to the failure to apply the articles of the constitution." And he stated, "We need a comprehensive legal agreement that guarantees the rights of citizens in the region, as well as the rights of Baghdad, and this matter will not be applied through visits or relations between two governments because it will soon end as it happened with the previous agreement in the government of Abdul-Mahdi, for that constitution is Al-Faisal." Before that, Baglan confirmed that the Kurdistan region is owed 27 billion dollars because of Baghdad's failure to pay the region's dues. Baglan said that "the Kurdistan region was delivering 250 thousand barrels according to the 2019 budget while receiving half of the agreed amount and not more than 450 million," stressing that "the Kurdistan government does not take a share of the petrodollars like the Iraqi provinces." He added: "In the days of the war against ISIS, the government borrowed 65 billion dollars and did not give it a dollar to the Kurdistan Region in the face of terrorism and now deducts part of the payment from the region." He stressed that "the Kurdistan region owes $ 27 billion, which is because Baghdad stopped paying the region's dues at a time when it was fighting terrorism and saving the salaries of its employees forced." A delegation from the Kurdistan Regional Government is preparing to visit the capital, Baghdad, as a prelude to completing negotiations on an agreement to deliver oil and revenue from border crossings in exchange for the federal government sending financial dues to the region's employees.

  5. CNN. Broadcasting While The Ayatollah Sits On A Popsicle And Tries To Guess What Flavor It Is ! Hint: It’s A Jamaal Watermelon ... And Notice The Grandma Shawl And The Kitchen Towel That He’s Using For Warmth ... In his meeting with the Iraqi Prime Minister .. Khamenei vows to strike the Americans in response to the killing of Soleimani - 19 Minutes Ago Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that his country would deal a blow to America in response to the killing of the prominent commander of the Revolutionary Guards, Qassem Soleimani, adding that his country would not interfere in Baghdad's relationship with Washington. Khamenei made his threat in Tuesday's meeting with Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kazemi, according to the official website of the Iranian guide. Khamenei told the Iraqi Prime Minister - who is visiting Tehran - that his country will not interfere in Baghdad's relationship with Washington, but he warned that the American presence on the Iranian border is causing security chaos. Al-Kazemi met Khamenei in Tehran on Tuesday during his first official visit abroad since he took office in May. Khamenei said that "Iran will not interfere in Iraq’s relations with America, but expects Iraqi friends to know America and realize that its presence in any country causes corruption, destruction and destruction." He continued, "The Islamic Republic expects to abide by the decision of the (Iraqi) parliament to expel American forces, as their presence is a reason for insecurity." America and Iran Khamenei indicated that Soleimani was killed in an American air strike by a plane near Baghdad airport at the beginning of the year, after which the Iraqi parliament requested the withdrawal of American forces. "They killed your guest in your house and rudely admitted that," he said. He added that Iran "will never forget this and will certainly strike a retaliatory blow to the Americans." Tehran responded to the killing of Soleimani by launching ballistic missiles at bases used by American forces in Iraq, knowing that Trump refused to respond militarily to this strike. The missile attack targeting the al-Asad base in western Iraq did not result in deaths among US forces, but it wounded soldiers with brain tremors. Khamenei said that Iran opposes "what weakens the Iraqi government," contrary to Washington, which he said does not want "an independent and strong Iraqi government elected by popular vote."

  6. CNN. Broadcasting An Actual Iraqi With ‘Intelligence’ ! A prominent negotiator and a cunning player" ... Who is the Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi? Posted in: 05/08/2020 - 17:37 Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi. © AFP Text: Boualem Ghobshi On Thursday, Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi managed to extract the confidence of parliament in the formation of his government to put an end to five months of political labor, during which other personalities were unable to carry out this task. Al-Kazemi has run Iraqi intelligence since 2016, and he is originally a writer, journalist and human rights activist who lived for years in exile before returning to his country after the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime, and a huge task awaits him given the scale of the crisis in the country. Who is Al-Kazemi? Will he succeed in overcoming this crisis? After five months of political struggle, the political parties in the Iraqi parliament met around the government of Mustafa al-Kazimi, which Thursday won the confidence of the political blocs in the legislative institution. Al-Kazemi is a well-known name for the Iraqi political class by virtue of the fact that he occupied the mission of head of the intelligence service since 2016. The first test that the new Iraqi Prime Minister will face is the extent of his ability to send signs of hope in the present and future of the country, to gain the confidence of Iraqis who are angry at the country's bitter economic and social reality, and who have intensively taken to the streets in demonstrations that rocked the country for several weeks. However, this matter seems difficult with the increasing financial expectations, which worsen day by day, and the country is entering a difficult economic year, and its GDP is expected to decrease by 9.7 percent, according to the World Bank. The media also reported that Baghdad was considering the possibility of deducting the salaries of employees, in a move that would undoubtedly receive popular rejection, and put the new prime minister face to face with the street. Al-Kazemi’s choice is the third attempt to form a new government since the beginning of the year 2020, after Adnan Al-Zarfi’s apology, and Muhammad Tawfiq Allawi accepted it. How to shine star with Al-Kazemi? In 2016, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi surprised the Iraqis by appointing a figure as Mustafa al-Kazimi, the journalist and human rights activist, to head intelligence. This is at the height of the war against the "Islamic State" that occupied part of the country in a period of time before the Iraqi army, with the support of the international coalition, succeeded in defeating it. Al-Kazemi's complex relations with the political class inside and outside Iraq helped him find his way to the premiership steadily, knowing that his name has been frequently reported to hold this position since 2018 after the legislative elections that resulted in Adel Abdul-Mahdi, the resigned prime minister. Al-Kazemi took advantage of his position as head of intelligence, to forge several links with dozens of countries and agencies operating within the international coalition. During a rare visit with former Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi in 2017 to Riyadh, he was seen embracing at length his personal friend, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Al-Kazimi is said to know how to be a friend to everyone. He is considered "a person who is not hostile to anyone, who has a pragmatic mentality, and has relations with all the main players on the Iraqi scene: a good relationship with the Americans, and a relationship that has recently returned to Iran," according to what one of his close associates told Agence France-Presse. About a month ago, an Iraqi faction close to Iran accused Al-Kazemi of having a role in the assassination of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani and Deputy Chairman of the Popular Mobilization Organization, which was carried out by Washington in Baghdad. He had to re-polish his image in front of the Iranians, and he did. Al-Kazemi is seen as a skilled negotiator, who Iraqis are counting on today to harness his extensive network of relations in Washington, as in Tehran, to save Iraq from an economic and political disaster. "He is a prominent negotiator and a cunning player," said Tobi Dodge, director of studies at the Middle East Institute at the London School of Economics, in a statement to Agence France-Presse. Press, intelligence, and then prime minister Al-Kazemi, whose real name is Mustafa Abd al-Latif Misht, was born in Baghdad in 1967 where he studied law before leaving his country for Britain in 1985. He chose the title of Al-Kazemi during his exile in Britain and columnist and director of the liberation of the Iraq section of the American "Monitor" site. After the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime in 2003, Al-Kazimi returned to Iraq to participate in the founding of the Iraqi Media Network. He also ran the "Iraqi Memory Foundation", which worked to document the testimonies of the victims of Saddam Hussein's regime. Al-Kazemi also worked as editor-in-chief of the "Weekly" magazine, which was issued by a Kurdish institution in the Iraqi city of Sulaymaniyah during the years 2010-2011, and published several books including: "The Iraq Question ... Reconciliation between the Past and the Future." Will Al-Kazemi succeed in overcoming the current crisis in the country? It seems that the nature of the Iraqi political system makes it difficult for the new prime minister’s mission to lead a ship this stage according to what the Iraqi street expects, according to the interpretation of the Iraqi analyst Maan Al-Jubouri in an interview with France 24. Al-Jubouri says, "Successive government failures are many and expectations are great." The prime minister's margin is very narrow. "The Iraqi street is betting on Al-Kazemi's arrangement for this stage to allow the dissolution of the parliament and the organization of elections," Jubouri explains, adding that the new prime minister, "even if it is not counted on religious parties, and this is a positive thing, will collide with the parliament in the sense of the parties in power, if he wants Do any repair step. " Al-Jubouri did not seem very optimistic about what Al-Kazemi could do to overcome the current crisis in which Iraq is floundering, because "any major accomplishment the prime minister is trying to do cannot be passed in parliament, because these parties are in control of it," the analyst said. Al-Jubouri continues that the only remaining bet is: "pressure the street to impose change on these political organizations." Boualem Ghobshi link

Nassif said in an interview with {Euphrates News} that "the official is immune in relation to financial and administrative matters and the sanctions extend to those without the official," noting that "the wrong establishment of the political process led to parties engaging in quotas and sharing the spoils." Nassif added that "the parties were talking about economics lightly and today began to announce their economies clearly and those responsible for the economy have become well known," stressing that "this indulgence made them immune to the law." Nassif continued, "Many of the files, such as oil and ports, the central bank or banks and the Internet, are political fronts for the powerful parties and built empires immune to the law, and therefore the implementation of the law is weak against them."

The leadership stated in a statement: "Our Iraqi people and the world have been busy launching indirect fire at the country's headquarters, Iraqi military camps and foreign embassies protected by the state for the past years, and because of the importance of the issue and its negative repercussions on the Iraqi national security, has become a follow-up topic from the highest levels."

  11. CNN. Broadcasting While Trying To Rub Off Some Of That ‘Prestige’ Onto Their Currency ! The prestige of Iraq ... the ultimate goal of Mustafa Al-Kazemi - 4 Days Past Because Iraq and its financial and economic capabilities are an ethical trust and a national responsibility under the responsibility of Mustafa Al-Kazemi, Prime Minister of Iraq, the Ministry of Communications announced the launch of the shock operations under the guidance of Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi to detect and combat the smuggling of Internet capacities in Iraq, pointing out that it is the largest joint specialized operations. In a statement, Minister of Communications Arkan Al-Shaibani said that the operation was launched with the direct guidance of the Prime Minister and with support, cooperation and joint coordination with the intelligence and national security services and rapid response forces to uncover sites, towers and smuggling systems of Internet capacities in Diyala and the rest of the provinces - Mosul and Kirkuk - adding that these operations It will continue until the smuggling is completely eradicated and the authorities behind this issue are reached. The statement called on the national companies working in the communications and internet sector to support the process and report any smuggling operation to the capacitors in a manner that guarantees the preservation of the national security and the Iraqi economy. This operation aims to combat smuggling in the international information network “the Internet” and eliminate thefts in this vital economic services sector in Iraq. Because its smuggling and theft negatively affects the Iraqi state’s treasury revenues, which causes it to lose hundreds of millions of dollars. This smuggling is not a result of this moment, but rather dates back to previous years, and its source is in northern Iraq. Mustafa Al-Kazemi profoundly realizes that countering these robberies is like a person who enters himself with a "nest of the hornets", yet he does not care about him as long as the goal is moral and patriotic, which is re-imposing the prestige of the Iraqi state on Iraqi soil. The prestige means to Mustafa al-Kazemi restoring the citizen’s confidence in the state and its institutions, and getting Iraq out of the failed state classification circle. And save the Iraqi state from fragmentation and weakness. And the restoration of Iraq as an active country in the Arab, regional and international environment, meaning that Iraq is a player in the region and not just a playground for regional and international countries. In this context, the trauma process comes as an entry point for Mustafa Al-Kazemi to fight a form of corruption in Iraq. Therefore, the Iraqi national forces must stand by him and work with him to overcome the difficulties that he will surely face in combating corruption. The fight against corruption comes as a priority for Mustafa Al-Kazemi because he understands that the corruption that is rampant in the Iraqi state detracts from Iraq's internal sovereignty and embarrasses Iraq externally. This matter is not accepted by its moral and national conscience. Whoever confronts him in the recent past and with great determination the ISIS terrorist crime, is able to confront the wasp's nest. In line with the economic aspect of imposing the prestige of the state through trauma operations, once Mustafa Al-Kazemi formed his government and won the confidence of the House of Representatives, the security services carried out an intelligence operation regarding the authorities that strike rockets at the headquarters of the Iraqi army and arrest those who carry out these actions who are . Because the prestige of the Iraqi army is prestige of the Iraqi state, and individuals or armed groups outside the law cannot tamper with the reputation of Iraq and its military establishment. He directed the armed forces to operations in Kirkuk to pursue the terrorist cells of ISIS, whose activities diminished after these operations. Also, Mustafa al-Kazimi, the Prime Minister of Iraq, directed the prosecution of all those who committed crimes and fled outside Iraq, and appeared to arrest a criminal who killed a group of Ponmer clans. Because this directive sends reassurance to the hearts of citizens and sends messages stating that the state is able to extend its authority over all, and that the application of the law is the exclusive right of the state to all those who begged themselves to break the law. In addition to the arrest of criminals who tamper with the security of citizens in the regions, many of them have been arrested. Mustafa Al-Kazemi understands the importance of security. Security, economic prosperity, and political stability are two sides of the same coin, because no state in modern and contemporary history has advanced economically without stabilizing the security situation.

  15. CNN. Broadcasting From The State Department - Just Go With It ... Washington and Baghdad are preparing for a realistic strategic dialogue - 49 Minutes Ago BAGHDAD - The initial composition of the Iraqi delegation tasked with participating in the strategic dialogue to be held later this month with the United States of America carried features of a realistic approach away from the exaggerations of some Iraqi political parties known to be close to Iran, which were promoted for a dialogue that would be a radical change in relations between Baghdad And Washington does not fully exclude the end of the US military presence on Iraqi soil. The delegation, whose members were leaked to the media, included former and current Iraqi diplomats with experience in international relations and the laws that govern them, at the top of which are the common interests between countries, knowing the extent of the great connection between Iraq and the United States and the goals that Washington cannot abandon in any upcoming dialogue. Informed Iraqi sources revealed to the Arabs that there was some pressure from the hawks of the pro-Iranian camp to push the Iraqi side during its negotiations with the American side to toughen the issue of removing American forces from Iraq, but the same sources added that this camp will not be effective because of a conviction that prevails even within the parties Pro-Tehran that the current circumstances do not allow Baghdad to negotiate with Washington in terms of strength, and that the economic conditions that the Corona pandemic has complicated will make Iraq’s success in obtaining American aid and its exclusion from the sanctions imposed by Washington on Tehran itself an achievement. On the procedural side, Al-Arab learned that negotiations to be held between Iraq and the United States will take place via closed-circuit television, instead of direct meetings due to the restrictions imposed by the outbreak of the Corona virus. Baghdad lacks power cards in its negotiations with Washington. And collecting American aid will itself be an achievement Senior diplomatic sources said that Baghdad and Washington agreed to start the dialogue via closed-circuit television after abandoning the idea of exchanging visits between the negotiating delegations in the two countries. The sources added that the first television meeting between the delegations of the two countries will take place in the middle of this month. Until the beginning of the month, discussions between Baghdad and Washington revolved around arrangements for a US delegation to visit Iraq to start the first round of the upcoming dialogue. On the composition of the Iraqi negotiation team, Al-Arab learned that it includes Baghdad's ambassador to Washington Farid Yassin, the former Iraqi ambassador to Washington Lukman Al-Faili and a prominent official in the Iraqi Foreign Ministry, Abdul Karim Hashem. Yassin and Al-Faili are held accountable for the diplomatic technocrats because of their extensive international relations and the experiences they each had in the diplomatic corps. The names of the Iraqi negotiating team were met with great satisfaction among the observers amid leaks indicating the presence of other names well versed in international affairs and foreign relations. Observers believe that the composition of the Iraqi negotiating team is balanced, which may constitute a message that the Americans may receive comfortably. The sources say that the negotiations of the two countries will focus on four issues, political, security, economic and cultural. In the political file, the two countries may exchange some observations about each other’s mission, but the most important issue is security, as it falls within its items the future of the American military presence in Iraq. The sources say that the United States hinted at the government of Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazimi of its willingness to withdraw all its military forces from his country, in implementation of the parliament’s decision in this regard. The risk of losing American security and military support at a time when Iraq appears to be resuming its battle against ISIS, which in recent months has recorded a remarkable return to activity in a number of regions of the country. Observers say that the Iraqi government fears a repeat of the 2014 scenario when the organization invaded vast Iraqi areas three years after the US military withdrew from Iraq, under former President Barack Obama. According to observers' estimates, the Iraqi side will try to maintain American military support now, provided that its points of departure are at home from the west of the country, where the Ain al-Assad base is in Anbar province, and from the north where the Silk base is in the city of Erbil. On the other hand, the American negotiator will seek to extract a complete Iraqi commitment to rein in the Shiite militias loyal to Iran, accused of bombing the Washington embassy in Baghdad again and again, and attacking Iraqi military bases hosting American forces. Iraqi government sources say that Washington understands the complexities of this file, so perhaps you will not press Iraq to open it soon, with the aim of giving Al-Kazemi’s government a breathtaking opportunity, after being born in a jungle of dangerous challenges. The sources add, that the Al-Kazemi government will take the path of dialogue to disarm the pro-Iranian militias in the first stage, in the hope of neutralizing the largest number of Iraqi factions. Perhaps dealing with this file is an essential pillar in dealing with the great imbalance in the relations of Iraq and Iran, where the former appears to be merely a subsidiary of the second. The sources say that the economic file in the negotiations will receive the attention of the Iraqi team, as Baghdad needs unconventional solutions to overcome its financial crisis, which is renewed whenever oil prices fall. The two parties will deliberate on a package of economic proposals, including increasing Iraq’s share in the international oil market and soft loans, and urging foreign companies to postpone the collection of debts due from Iraq and others. The American Ambassador to Baghdad Matthew Toler had clarified in previous statements the framework in which the strategic dialogue with Iraq will take place, stressing that it is a comprehensive political, economic, cultural, human rights and security framework, indicating that the dialogue will not be merely negotiations on arrangements to withdraw American forces from Iraqi territory.

  19. CNN. Broadcasting On Lockup ! LINK Iraqi judiciary initiates procedures to hold MPs accountable on corruption charges 23rd May, 2020 The Supreme Judicial Council in Iraq has asked the speaker of parliament to lift the immunity of a number of legislators in order for them to be investigated on charges of corruption. While this request was previously made on an individual level, this time around, the immunity lifting request was for a group. On May 11, the judiciary requested that the immunity of 18 members of parliament belonging to various political blocs be lifted on charges of corruption and defamation. The parliament, which has yet to convene, has not been able to respond to the Judicial Council’s request. A source in the office of parliament Speaker Mohammed al-Halbusi told Al-Monitor, “We have received these requests but have yet to respond thereto. We will do so during the coming period. The speaker of the parliament is to include such requests in parliament’s agenda and put them to the vote in a bid to lift the immunity of MPs included in the requests.” According to Article 20 of the internal regulations of the Iraqi parliament, a member of parliament cannot be arrested during their legislative term unless caught in the act of committing a crime or accused of a crime, and only then once a majority approves of lifting the concerned legislator’s immunity. The same article also says that a member shall only be arrested beyond their legislative term if caught in the act of committing a crime or if accused of a crime and only if the speaker approves of lifting their immunity. Among the members of parliament who were included in the Judicial Council's request is the Faik Sheikh Ali, a controversial lawmaker whose immunity was previously lifted at the request of a number of legislators. This time around, however, the request was made by the judiciary. Member of parliament Alia Nassif, who is well known in the Iraqi media for “fighting corruption,” was also among the legislators whom the judiciary is asking to have their immunity lifted. She indicated that she thought there was no real case against her as the charges are related to three cases previously filed against her, two of which were dismissed. Nassif said in a press statement that the first dropped case against her relates to her saying that Mosul residents who approved of Islamic State crimes are partners thereof. She said the second lawsuit was closed after the former defense minister was questioned in the previous parliamentary session. She said the third case concerns the Publishing Court and that will she "will appear in court in response to all the cases filed against me.” Salah al-Arabawi, the former director of the office of the leader of the al-Hikma political coalition and a legal specialist, told Al-Monitor, “I think that the immunity issue will be politicized just like other issues that included the replacement of MPs. The speaker of the parliament should be firm in enforcing the law.” Arabawi said he believes that the measures taken by the government headed by Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhimi can help boost accountability as far as legislative and governmental officials are concerned, and this is “an important message to the Iraqi citizens whereby lawmakers are accountable.” During the protests witnessed in the country, the Iraqi parliament voted Oct. 29 to lift the immunity of lawmakers accused of corruption once their file is received from the judiciary. While this decision can facilitate the implementation of the judicial request, it is expected to face political obstacles. Activists in Iraqi civil society consider the lifting of the immunity of a number of parliamentarrians as necessary and believe it is an essential step toward the Iraqi judiciary exercising its role in holding to account legislators who enjoy “and exploit” their immunity in illegal ways. Musa al-Aaraji, a civil society activist who took part in the protests, told Al-Monitor, “We support such necessary measures. Most MPs took advantage of their immunity to indulge in blackmail practices and pass illegal contracts and deals.” The Iraqi parliament does not seem serious about lifting the immunity of lawmakers and allowing the judiciary to interrogate them. There are many cases where legislators have been implicated in corruption files. About five years ago, former member of parliament Mishaan al-Jubouri admitted on Aletejah TV that he received a bribe during his work as a member of parliament, and no action has been taken in this regard. A professor of political science at Baghdad University, Adel Bedewi, told Al-Monitor, “The judiciary’s request to lift the immunity of some MPs is a positive step, but I believe that parliament will deal with this request from a political rather than technical perspective, and favoritism may get in the way.” Legal expert Tariq Harb told Al-Monitor that in order to lift the immunity of the legislators whose names were mentioned in the request of the Supreme Judicial Council, parliament needs a simple majority during its session, meaning half plus one. “In the event that the parliament does not lift the immunity of the MPs included in the request of the Supreme Judicial Council, the council will have to wait until the end of the parliamentary session to be able to interrogate them. If the immunity is not lifted, it will have no other option,” Harb added. The first decision to lift such immunity in Iraq was in 2008 when the parliament voted to lift the immunity of former member of parliament Mithal al-Alusi following his visit to Israel. In August 2019, the immunity of six members of parliament was lifted, but no action has been taken against them, as their blocs interfered, be it directly or indirectly, to mislead public opinion and accuse the speaker of the parliament of taking “a non-technical decision based on political calculations.” After years of facing accusations of favoring politicians and serving their interests, the Iraqi judiciary is seemingly trying to stand up for itself, but it still may be unable to interrogate lawmakers who belong to large political blocs or are linked to armed factions. In the best case scenario, it will be starting with the most vulnerable members of parliament.

Likewise, Al-Kazimi was chosen by the Kurdish component without prior demands, and there are no blank signatures, and he did not make a secret visit to the region, and he did not submit obedience duties at any table.
