" a big difference between, to see the view and that you think, if you see the view, you have entered in your circle, and if Atqdth was in your blood and secret" / Ahmed Amin and the author of the Egyptian artist /.

When the warrior wants to eliminate his opponent, the element of surprise depends, in that the other party is not counted, and is fully convinced, that he is holding on to Egypt's victory.

In the course of previous sessions, to the governments and the Iraqi parliament, the way to fight corruption, passing through traditional mechanisms, and the chain could be penetrated, and breaking the prestige and infiltration of corruption in them, to reflect in the body of the political process, the government and departments parallel with the weakness of management and planning, And broke his joy when the fall of the idol.

As soon as Iraqi politicians agreed to the appointment of Mr. Adel Abdul Mahdi as prime minister, he began to take steps. Most politicians, especially those who aspired to power, even knew that these steps could not be achieved at the very least. , Including the mechanism of selection of candidates electronically, and made it the right of every Iraqi citizen, if not belonging to a party, which caused confusion to the clutches, which made Mr. Abdul Mahdi, take a break fighter, to surprise all politicians, the adoption of the Supreme Council for the fight against corruption, , Run by judges who consider them competent, and provided them with a safe place, In order to work with confidence to eliminate corruption.

A process characterized by political acumen and boldness and intelligence, did not notify the politicians, whether corrupt or non-corrupt, does Mr. Abdul Mahdi, determination and determination to curb corruption? Will the corrupt, idle, those who are described as whales and mafias, stand by politicians with wide understanding and deep understanding of danger?

Will the measures of the new government restore the citizens' confidence in some politicians to cancel the slogan of generalization of corruption for all the politicians of the new Iraq? Hope may be achieved by the honorable, when they believe, that the vanity round, and that the right state, not a fragile government, even if it facilitates?

If the prime minister proves his opinion, and is not due to a failed mechanism, the hesitation leads to corruption of determination.

Will the prime minister insist on his opinion, or will he return to the old mechanisms that proved their failure?

Past experiences, though few, have proved that hesitation leads to corruption of determination and breaking of will.

NAB pledged to former Prime Minister for Energy, Bahaa al-Araji, to uncover files of corruption in Iraq, including oil licenses and the currency and the central bank. 
Al-Araji said in a meeting with «Al-Quds Al-Arabi», that 'the parliament in previous sessions was much better than this session, in addition to that there was a kind of trust between the Iraqi citizen and these institutions (on the follow-up files corruption),' noting that ' Was one of the most important committees, both at the session in which I was Chairman of the Committee, or the session that preceded it. "We have opened many files, but the commission does not have an investigative status, but is limited to the work on the audit, and when we stand before the violations submitted to the judiciary and the Integrity Committee.
He added that "many files were disabled due to judicial proceedings, as well as the inclusion of many of them the recent amnesty law, and this was a major mistake committed by the House of Representatives to enact this law (in August 2016), which cleared many, especially in large cases, The detection of explosives, which was the cause of the killing of many Iraqis'. 
He added: 'I am more personal with papers and documents on corruption and irregularities, and work with some legal brothers to open files of corruption, most notably the oil licenses that led to the destruction of the Iraqi economy, and this is recognized by Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi, when he was oil minister, Deputy Prime Minister for Energy Affairs, and we were looking into this matter. We are not targeting a certain person. '
Araji pledged to open the file auction currency and the Central Bank of Iraq, explaining that 'the amounts that were converted was supposed to be replaced by goods, whether the state or the citizens and traders and the private sector. We want to check whether goods entered the size of these funds? If we do not get to that, it means that there are senior staff involved in this matter '.

He pointed out that 'all political parties without exception have banks, unfortunately, we were unable to build a banking sector in Iraq, and the bank became like a shop that buys and sells the dollar. The daily interest rate for each bank in the period between 2010-2014 is estimated at one million dollars from currency teams'. 
"There is fraud. Every foreign conversion (of the dollar) must come in exchange for goods, and these goods have not come, so where are these amounts gone? So Iraq is going through a financial crisis, 'noting that' the rate of selling the currency per day is estimated at 230 million dollars (4 billion and 600 million dollars per month), and is supposed to come in this amount of goods, is that Iraq consumes goods by this figure monthly? '
"Today I am free, I do not belong to any party, so it is possible to open these files in the near future. I have the courage to reveal these files and I do not care about any party. I do not intend to target a particular party, as much as I intend to open a case, and the judiciary decides. '

" 
"We have been able to verify the credibility of several details through public and joint documents." The newspaper noted that it had interviewed more than 30 sources, including contractors and people working in the commercial field in Iraq, who asked not to be named for fear of possible reactions, " Saliport operates military facilities in various parts of the Middle East and Central Asia, but the jewel of the company's crown is at Balad Air Base, a base in northern Baghdad that includes F-16s funded by the US government," he said.

"In January 2014, Saaliport received a contract from the Air Force to provide security support, training and protection services to Al Qaeda, including essential services such as food and electric power at the base, where Saaliport received $ 1.1 billion for its services at the base. And expects to earn another $ 800 million by 2021, just before the acquisition of the BALAD contract, Saliport signed a deal with a company called Afaq Umm Qasr Marine Services. 

The paper quotes sources from Saliport as well as other sources of senior associates at the base of Bald and the company's main office in Virginia, described by Afaq as a "partner." According to the paper, four sources said that the alleged activities of Afaq on behalf of the company Saliport attracted The attention of the US Department of Justice. "Waliport is a contract company run by a holding company called Caliporn, owned by DC Capital Partners, a US private equity firm.

The investigation revealed that "documents filed by the Commission for Security and Exchange of Caliborn reveal that in October 2016 claimed an associate in the Iraqi Ministry of Defense that the company Afaq promised Iraqi government officials to provide funds for them to register the name of the company Saliport as a contractor to provide services to the base of Balad. As a country that is an Iraqi base, the Iraqi government has the right to determine the contractor hired to work there.

The newspaper pointed out that 17 sources confirmed the links of Afaq officials of the Iraqi government, a former member of the leadership of the company Taliport in the base of Balad said that "the company Horizons to facilitate matters with Iraqi officials, while revealing ten sources according to the newspaper, some of them have direct information on the involvement of Maliki , Where they said that "Maliki has full dominance of Afaq, while the information of the other section was secondary."

"The US Department of Justice is now investigating possible violations of US laws that limit external corrupt practices that Salliport has committed through its relationship with Afaq. The Caliborn file states that the government investigation looks into whether the former management of Saliport Knowing or supposed to have knowledge of alleged bribes promised by Afaq to Iraqi government officials. "

"Afaq started as a joint stock company with a Kuwaiti company called American United Logistics, or US logistics, owned by former US military logistics officers," the documents said. "American United, In the port of Umm Qasr, and by 2007 the company had a strange control of US military shipments through the port.

According to the investigation, one of the sources of American United said: "There was no competitor to it." But the company was shut down by 2013 due to serious issues related to its reputation. American United was dependent on Iraqi truck drivers to avoid attacks by insurgents who often targeted Kuwaiti trucks. In order to pay the wages of drivers, it created Iraqi companies that were eventually brought together in one company under the management of a person named Sami al-Asadi in 2008. "

The sources said that "this commercial company is called Afaq, and Asadi was the master of cargo traffic in Umm Qasr, and later because of disagreements with American United lost control of Umm Qasr and found Asadi a new way out and appeared to deal with companies such as Saliport." , That "the continuation of Sami al-Asadi with Saaliport was convincing the company because of his relationship with government officials." The newspaper pointed out that the first contract revealed between Afaq and Saliport may have happened in 2012. Where signed the Saaliport contract of security services and other logistics with the base The other is the base Spyker in Tikrit until it happens, but the organization is urging in 2014 . 

Spyker later became the site of the worst war crimes committed by the organization in Iraq, where they massacred nearly 1,700 trainees from the air force near them. But before the fall of Tikrit, Saliport, according to a former contractor, was in debt with Afaq. "A contract was signed in 2012 between Afaq and Saliport for the al-Qaeda administration in Tikrit," a former Saliport official told the newspaper.The contract was in 50/50 arrangement and was paid. " This means that Saalport has paid for half of its interest in Al Qaeda.

"When Saliport was negotiating with Afaq, Nuri al-Maliki was one of the most influential people in the country. In September 2014, after the invasion of a pro-Iraqi organization, Maliki's government collapsed. This was a major blow to Al-Maliki and his family, as well as other commercial entities that supported him, including Afaq. "

"The deal with Afaq lasted for two years after Maliki lost the premiership while Saliport's leadership, which negotiated the completion of the contract, continued to work for the company," the sources said. In the year 2016, Saaliport stopped paying wages to Afaq. "The company is going to hell, we will not pay you to go to court, we do not care," the newspaper quoted a person familiar with the cancellation as saying. 

In August 2016, the Prosecution filed a lawsuit against Taliport in the Iraqi courts to charge it $ 70 million and pay $ 90 million. Both cases were lost in terms of obligations but they did not give up. Then resumed the prospects of the case and won. A Court of Cassation ruled that Saleport was a city of prospects for more than $ 56 million. However, the amount was not reimbursed because Saliport challenged the decision and won again for failing to provide sufficient evidence.

According to the investigation, "sources confirmed that" the loss of Spyker base did not affect the prospects .. Now linked to a contract with the US company SOSi through a joint stock company with prospects called Shahd East. They are partners in two other bases, namely the Taji base and Basmaya base. The Daily Daily quoted a former senior Western official, who served in several rounds in Iraq, as saying after reviewing the story of Afaq that "control of the government took place in Iraq with a broad executive authority over the army and security services And control over sources of money. "The official said:" Suspicious funds as well as our military industry. In the end the US government gave Maliki money to help him build a real shadow government. Maliki's corruption has directly helped the emergence of an advocate. "
