Iraqi Queen Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 We just read on www. nakhelnews.com that President Jalal Talabani has Arteriosclerosis of the legs. That is hardening and blocked arteries in his legs, which is life threatening. He had surgery on his spine and due to his poor health he cannot continue his term as President Of Iraq. He announced that the Ex Prime Minister of the Kurdistan Region, Barham Salih will be replacing him as the President!!! Sorry I have the link but it is in Arabic, and I do not know how to bring it over here. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PTguy Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 I dont know..... I think at this point the over used corporate buzz phrase "Change is Good" applies. Anything to spur some movement, they know what needs to be done for them to start making money they just need to do it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perspective2011 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 I found a different article that says the surgery was successful and that he will continue. http://en.aswataliraq.info/(S(m2rzrq55hxf1ir45om1ak1me))/Default1.aspx?page=article_page&id=146600&l=1 AGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: Iraqi President Jalal Talabani has decided to return to Baghdad within one week, after a successful surgery in Germany, a leading official of his Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) announced on Monday. "President Jalal Talabani shall return to Iraq within one week after his successful spinal surgery in Germany; he is feeling well now," Adel Murad told Aswat al-Iraq news agency. "After President Talabani's return, he shall continue his main activity, especially the planned national conference he recently called for, scheduled to gather the active Iraqi political forces to find a new basis for the joint national political process in the country," he said.

JREDinars Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Thanks Iraqi Queen! Sucks because like the other posters, I thought he was a mover. I will say, that when I saw the caption then the subtitle...I thought it was Thug using a play on words...like Talibani was "stepping" down (for one reason or another) and in Thug fashion it said he had "Arteriosclerosis" as in, a problem with his legs. Then I saw it was Iraqi Queen and realized no joke here. Well, that stinks...we will have to see what other articles say about the situation. I wish him recovery and strength! ¡¡Go RV all frikkin ready!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
