    Political alliances in Iraq after the elections .. maps give birth again

    Political alliances in Iraq after the elections .. maps give birth again

    Thu May 22 2014 03:16 | (Voice of Iraq)

    Baghdad: «Middle East»
    I have not had the results that emerged from the Iraqi parliamentary elections that took place on the thirtieth of April last, and the results appeared Finally, any possibility of any party to form a government alone. Although the National Alliance, the Shiite coalition includes the rule of law (95 seats), and the Sadrists (34 seats), and the Islamic Supreme Council (31 seats), in addition to the Badr Organization, virtue and reform, he could theoretically form a majority government in Iraq, but it will be the majority of sectarian and not political as advocated by al-Maliki, in addition, they are rejected from _khasmah partners within the alliance, the two Sadrist movement led by Muqtada al-Sadr, and the Islamic Supreme Council headed by Ammar al-Hakim, and who are seeking to form a government of «strong partnership».
    If the forces of the Shiite coalition Taatqazv ball now, both in terms of the concept of the majority or the candidate for prime minister, who must be in accordance with what is it the norm politically in Iraq from the Shiite community, which reflects the map ambiguous color inside sectarian one, the irony is striking that political map with blocks and other lists no less equivocal. Perhaps the reason for this is the results that emerged from the elections. In a time when Maliki's opponents of Shiites and Sunnis wish to lose or at least decline to what is not allowed to compete for the post of prime minister, who took up twice before, and therefore snatched his opponents within the Shiite house in the third term of it, the results have produced the opposite of what wanted the ships opponents . Maliki first solution, both at the level of voting Profile (700 thousand votes in Baghdad) or the number of seats (95 seats), all eagerly large menus and blocks. But what looks like a victory for the owners, who sees his opponents that he hired the money, power and influence in favor of his election campaign, it is not enough to form a government.

    According to the political terrain in Iraq, which interferes where sectarian Baerqa Palmdna it at a time when it seems the political map distributed to these major features, the fragmentation which has led to the breeding of new maps. Maliki, who is betting relatively National Alliance, as is the largest bloc it hopes to settle the nomination, according to this rule (the base of the numerical majority within the component one) probably bet on the regional position (Iran) and international (United States), but on the other hand is now working and relentless In order to raise the tally of votes from the blocks and small entities, both within the National Alliance (Badr and virtue and Reform), which makes the number of seats than the 115 seats, or by opening up to other blocks of sects and ethnicities outside space Shiite.

    Bet-Maliki here is based on what is owned from the leaves of the pressure or bargaining blocs other major such as the Kurdistan Alliance and «united» for reform led by Osama Najafi (23 seats) and the Arab led by Saleh al-Mutlaq (ten seats) with the exclusion of blocks Sadr and Hakim, and Ayad Allawi, who won the ( 21 seats) because you can not get an understanding with these parties so far. And is based on a bet-Maliki here on the two papers seem to him Rabhtin, namely the demands of the Kurds, who have formed a joint delegation for talks with Baghdad, which means they cut off the possibility of Tvkkhm, especially that al-Maliki was betting on the possibility of joining the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan led by President Jalal Talabani, whose term expired Finally nor still receiving treatment in Germany to form a majority government policy, it may bet on the fact that the map is no longer coherent Kurdish as it was before, but the other is Rjrajh now, so that gives the demands of the Kurds allow them to approval by the party with another objection. The second issue that betting by al-Maliki are the possibility of dismantling the map Sunni suffering since the failure of its list of the (Iraqi) in the 2010 election not to form a government, a win that turned into a curse for the Sunni component, and it waved paper Presidency for the year instead of the Kurds in the case did not fruitless talks with the Kurds on the results inconclusive.

    Since there was no party Sunni strong now, especially after the decline of mass «united» Reform, led by Osama Najafi aspirant largest assume the position of President of the Republic, the al-Maliki would throw its weight Parliamentary (more than 115 deputies with his allies) towards the Grant office for Ngeevi it earns so Sunni bloc larger towards forming a majority government political and stay for a third term, but in return it in case insisted that Maliki's opponents within the Shiite house on a lack of understanding with al-Maliki and succeeded in imposing a candidate from within the National Alliance alternative to the owners even if it led to the withdrawal of al-Maliki This alliance, they can cluster configuration largest with the Kurds and Sunnis various lists in addition to the coalition of the National led by Iyad Allawi (21 seats) and maybe some small blocs such as the coalition Civic Democrats (three seats), and a coalition of Iraq, led by businessman Fadel Dabbas (five seats), and the last Targehh Go with expectations between Maliki or join rivals, especially the process of forming the next government in the light of these ambiguous maps will not be easy.

    Iraqi Premier Leads Vote, Faces Stalemate

    Iraqi Premier Leads Vote, Faces Stalemate

    Maliki Is Poised for Third Term but Faces Long Negotiations to Form Government, Amid Heightened Levels of Violence

    By ALI A. NABHAN and MATT BRADLEY



    BAGHDAD—A coalition led by Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki won the most seats in the country's first parliamentary elections since U.S. troops left in 2011, setting the stage for a lengthy period of political wrangling amid the worst violence since the civil war.

    Mr. Maliki's State of Law coalition won 92 out of 328 parliamentary seats in the elections held in late April, three more seats than it won in 2010, the Iraqi High Election Commission said Monday, putting the Iraqi leader in a strong position to secure a third term.

    The result left many Iraqis wondering whether another four years under Mr. Maliki, a Shiite Muslim, would deepen the sectarian rancor and extend a political stalemate that has left the government adrift. Western diplomats and analysts say that further instability would also add to the region's political maelstrom; Syria's civil war has spilled over into Iraq.

    To form a government, Mr. Maliki faces the likelihood of monthslong negotiations with former allies—many of whom now consider him a political enemy. Following the 2010 polls, lawmakers took nearly 10 months to form a government.

    But while the 2010 elections unfolded during a period of relative calm, the coming talks will take place amid heightened levels of violence. More than 7,800 Iraqi civilians were killed in 2013—the most civilian deaths since the nearly 18,000 killed in 2007 at the height of the sectarian conflict, according to the United Nations. At least 2,300 were killed so far this year.

    Lengthy political talks could complicate efforts to contain a conflict in the Sunni-majority western province of Anbar, where al Qaeda-inspired militants have held the city of Fallujah since early January. Emboldened by their successes against Iraq's military, the group, the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham, has taken to attacking targets far beyond its Sunni heartland.

    Last month, the group, which says it aims to create an Islamist state to straddle the Iraqi and Syrian borders, cut off a crucial dam that feeds water into the agricultural lands of southern Iraq for several days. It also seized territory in the city of Abu Ghraib, well within striking distance of Baghdad.

    If Mr. Maliki feels the need to demonstrate to potential coalition partners that he is tough on terror, he could decide to launch an aggressive clampdown, said Mr. Ali, a move that could inflame the violence. During the campaign, Mr. Maliki portrayed himself as Iraqis' best hope in the fight against Islamist extremists—a move analysts say brought him Shiite support.
    "Certainly the security conditions this time will be impacted by the political negotiations," said Ahmed Ali, an Iraq expert at the Washington-based Institute for the Study of War. "There is a possibility of destabilization, particularly if Prime Minister Maliki uses the results to twist the arms of the other political groups."

    The talks are likely to be fierce. The prime minister entered the April 30 vote with few friends even among other Shiites who emerged as runners-up. Among the other prominent Shiite parties, a list led by hard-line cleric Moqtada al-Sadr won 34 seats; the Iran-backed Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq won 31.

    Both regard Mr. Maliki with hostility, accusing him of dominating power and leading a corrupt government for the past eight years, charges he denies.

    U.S. lawmakers and military officials, too, have voiced frustration over Mr. Maliki's failure to reach out to Sunni groups and many blamed him for exacerbating tensions contributing to the rise in deadly violence and for creating fertile ground for al Qaeda-aligned groups to thrive.
    The Obama administration reacted Monday by saying the country's leaders should move quickly to form a new government "that is supported by all Iraqi communities."

    Given Shiite anger, the prime minister will probably first reach out to his Sunni Arab and Kurdish allies, say some political analysts. If he can cobble together an alliance with them he will be better positioned to tempt Shiite politicians to join him to gain the 165 seats he needs to form a government, Mr. Ali said. Even then, Mr. Maliki may have to accept limits on his now expansive political power. Some Shiite politicians are already talking about giving Mr. Maliki a third term on the condition that he devolve some of his authority to his coalition partners.

    Despite Iraq's growing security problems, Mr. Maliki's victory didn't surprise his opponents. Nada Ibrahim Al Jubori, a former Sunni member of parliament, said the results demonstrate the power of incumbency in Iraq's nascent democracy. "Iraqis still like to go to vote for a man with power as prime minister, even in spite of all the problems, all the disagreements between the Kurds and his blocs and between the Sunnis and his bloc," said Ms. Jubori, a former Sunni member of parliament. Ms. Jubori said Mr. Maliki owes at least part of his victory to his moribund political opposition. Not only is the Iraqi electorate split among ethnic and sectarian groups, but each group is further divided by infighting.

    Iraq's Sunni minority, which makes up about 20% of the population, was unable to unite around a single candidate or electoral bloc despite sharing a long list of grievances against Mr. Maliki's Shiite-dominated government in Baghdad.

    A Sunni-dominated list led by former Prime Minister Ayad Allawi won only 22 seats, while the "Mutahidoon" list, led by Maliki opponent and speaker of parliament Osama Al Nujaifi, won 23 seats. "There is no name to be agreed on," Ms. Jaburi said of the lack of alternatives to Mr. Maliki. "No name who has the acceptance of all other blocs."

    Can Maliki Win a Third Term?



    Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has started the bargaining to form a new government following his success in getting the most seats in the recent elections, albeit falling far short of a majority.

    A similar process after the last election four years ago took nearly a year to complete, but some believe that this time there is already a basis for agreement founded on the coalition that has led the country since then. This may prove difficult in practice, however, as some even within his own block are opposed to giving Maliki a third term in office.

    One possible contender from within his own cabinet is said to be Oil Minister Hussain al-Shahristani, although his chances are not helped by his fractious relationship with the regional government in Erbil.

    In all likelihood we are looking at months rather than weeks before this is resolved, but in the meantime business goes on, and as always you can keep up to date with all the latest developments with Iraq Business News.

    Iraq PM's allies reject 3rd term bid: National bloc



    Nouri al-Maliki's State of Law Alliance was the biggest winner in last month's parliamentary election, clinching 96 out of 328 seats in parliament.

    World Bulletin / News Desk - Two member blocs in Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki's parliamentary alliance have rejected his bid to run for a third term in office, a lawmaker said Wednesday.

    Speaking to Anadolu Agency, Entesar Allawi, a member of former premier Iyad Allawi's National Bloc, said the Badr bloc – which is allied with al-Maliki and has 18 seats in parliament – had rejected his bid to vie for a third term.

    "The bloc led by energy minister Hussain al-Shahristani also rejects al-Malik's third term bid," Allawi said.
    Officials from the two blocs could not be reached for comment.

    According to Allawi, Shiite leader Ammar al-Hakim, whose bloc won 31 seats in parliament in last month's polls, also opposes a third term bid by al-Maliki.

    "Shiite leader Muqtada al-Sadr [whose bloc won 34 parliamentary seats] also rejects a third term for al-Maliki," she said.

    Al-Maliki's State of Law Alliance was the biggest winner in last month's parliamentary election, clinching 96 out of 328 seats in parliament.

    According to Iraqi electoral laws, prime ministerial candidates must have the support of at least 165 members of parliament.
