Iraqiya announces its participation in parliament

[sessi]

Baghdad, Nov. 12 (AKnews) - The Iraqiya list led by the former Prime Minister, Ayad Allawi, stated on Friday, that it will attend the coming parliamentary meetings after ending the misunderstanding at yesterday's meeting, indicating that its withdrawal from yesterday's meeting is not related to its position from the political process and the formation of the next government.

It was understood that Iraqiya wanted to withdraw from the parliament for not including the political agreement signed by the outgoing Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and Kurdistan Region's President Massoud Barzani within the agenda of yesterday's meeting.

Jamal al-Battikh, told AKnews, that the list will be present in tomorrow's meeting at the second parliamentary meeting as it accepted to be part of the government national partnership government.

"Our withdrawal from yesterday's meeting was to consult and discuss an issue, and the points of dispute will be resolved before attending tomorrow's meeting” said Battikh

The Iraqiya List agreed with other political blocs that its leader Ayad Allawi will head the National Council for Strategic Policies, which is part of the executive power and replace the National Security Council in addition to other tasks, and commit the ministers, each according to his major to attend the necessary meetings.

The Council includes: The local and foreign policies, the economic and monetary affairs, security and military affairs, oil, gas, electricity, water, environment, and food security affairs.

Its functions are developing common and responsible visions about managing the strategic files in the State's supreme institutions about the economic, political, security, services, energy issues, and others.

So, if Allawi's new position includes "local and foreign policies, economic and monetary affiars, security and military affairs, oil, gas, electricity, water, environment and food security affairs", WHAT is the PM Maliki supposed to do all day?

Glad to hear their explanation on this. It seems as if they're willing to move forward with the on-going political process versus creating opposition. Good news. Thanks for posting.

(Possible Translation.... No we were not really mad,.... we just wanted to show the world that we could be mad if we were to get mad!!)

Count all his money that he stole from the people of Iraq. Maybe watch a little Sports Center and play some COD.

Sessi thanks for the find. I think it will put a lot of minds at ease! I felt like this was pre-meditated posturing from the start.

Peace

We would probably say the house went into recess for 'committee discussion' of a particular item on the agenda.

Sometimes the way they report their happenings always sounds like someone is quitting, is angry, trying to disrupt. It's just them doing business. Don't be discouraged we are on the verge of a real RV here. so Sit back and listen to the tale of a poor mountaineer barely kept is family feed, until one day whle shooting for some food up from the ground came this bubbling crewd..... oil that is". And you know the rest: That's the RV..... it's coming and we are all moving to 'beverely hills' .....Hawaii, the netherlands, Austrailia, wherever your heart and money will take you.

So, if Allawi's new position includes "local and foreign policies, economic and monetary affiars, security and military affairs, oil, gas, electricity, water, environment and food security affairs", WHAT is the PM Maliki supposed to do all day?

It was stated yesterday that Maliki is just a figurehead and Allawi is above him.

[Williamjr]

So, if Allawi's new position includes "local and foreign policies, economic and monetary affiars, security and military affairs, oil, gas, electricity, water, environment and food security affairs", WHAT is the PM Maliki supposed to do all day?

Maliki will be sharpening Allawi's pencils.

Stay grounded, calm and be happy.

Go RV/RI

[ha ha]

Maliki is the figure-head Prime Minister of Iraq. Only Allawi now have the power to RV. Thats what they gave to Maliki when he was hungry.
