Political realignment: Allawi in, Sadr out

In order to reach the agreement, a significant realignment of political forces within the Iraqi parliament seems to have taken place.

The deal brought former Prime Minister Ayad Allawi and his Iraqiya party into the governing coalition in order to support the agreement. The deal included the activation of a national security council that he is to head. In addition it calls for Allawi's party to choose a new defense minister (in charge of the Iraqi Army) in exchange for Mr. Maliki and his allies choosing the interior minister(in charge of the Iraqi Police). Those powerful posts have been vacant because of political disagreements since the governing coalition was formed in December. With Allawi's backing, Prime Minister Maliki now has enough support for the agreement to be passed by parliament, even though the Sadrist bloc opposed it and has been a significant force blocking it.

The Sadrist bloc was an essential part of Maliki's governing coalition, which was put together after Maliki's State of Law party won fewer seats than Allawi's Iraqiya party in last year's parliamentary elections. The Sadrist bloc, with about 10 percent of the seats, became one of the kingmakers in parliament during the deadlock that followed and played a major role in finally electing Maliki to his second term as prime minister. But, yesterday, the head of the Sadrist bloc walked out of the meeting in protest over the agreement. The Sadrist bloc considers the US to be an occupying force and has threatened to return to violent opposition if US troops remain in Iraq.

So now "all political leaders have agreed on the US training mission in Iraq except the Sadrists, who have some reservations," said President Talabani.

"One reason that we were encouraged by what has happened last night and frankly what has happened recently in the political give-and-take here is that there seem to be broad partnerships in political coalitions emerging that take tough decisions," said a US embassy official, according to the Christian Science Monitor report.

Q:How many Iraqi's does it take to screw in a light bulb?

A:Soon

Doesnt make sense, I know but neither does Iraq so i think it fits.

It just appears that they LOVE the word "SOON"

I think we've heard "SOON" from Shabibi himself since last March. And maybe even before that if he has ever gone on record.

But, it appeard back then they knew what they planned on doing.. (Or so it seemed)

Birsco, I think this is good news for the RV. My question, to anyone here, is, IF the seating of a Defense Ministry is important for the GOI to say "we have a military now, and we can defend ourselves and provide security for the Iraqi people and security for the development," how long does it take to make a defensible military? And if the RV is waiting for this one aspect of the government, couldn't it take a while? A year? two? AND won't this give the gurus one more thing to pump on?

I bought some more Dinar yesterday, but I don't think this is even kind of close to RV. Which is good. Gives us more time to acquire IQD before RV.
