Iraq 's Sunnis seeking greater power as much as after the defeat Daesh, reflecting the growing sense of the need for the government to be more comprehensive to prevent extremism from control areas again.
But so far there is not a lot of momentum, many Shiite politicians are worried that the Sunni leadership is divided and Nizh.ually ground, increasing tensions because the Shia and Kurdish fighters in control of the predominantly Sunni areas has recovered from Daesh and refuse to withdraw them. The danger that Iraq will miss the chance to break the sectarian cycle that fueled extremism since more than a decade Elzimn.astia year to deprive them of power and the rise of the Shiites after the overthrow of Saddam in 2003, sparked the insurgency and giving al Qaeda a foothold in the country.
The US military, backed by Sunni tribal fighters, spent on al - Qaeda, but the bitterness felt by the year as a result of discrimination helped in the emergence Daesh.
Each time , the emergence of armed Shiite deepens suspicions that the Sunnis can not be trusted. Repeatedly warned US officials of the recurrence of the same thing now what the government were not more comprehensive.
A senior Sunni lawmaker Mahmoud al - Mashhadani said Iraq is divided not reached a historic compromise. Mashhadani also put with some Sunni factions working paper determine their position on the talks on a new system, and calls for negotiations on radical changes in the Constitution.
For his part , has repeatedly called on Prime Minister Haider al - Abadi to the unit after the defeat Daesh, say Shiite politicians that they are aware of the need for more inclusiveness, while MP Ali Keywords says , "We have big concerns for the post Daesh. Appropriate distribution of resources and the rebuilding of state institutions are essential to keep the country united. "
Keywords says about the referendum on the independence of the Kurdistan region , which seeks the vote this year , "We are concerned that calls for it in the same year." But all the talks now hangs while fighting is still going on in the last stronghold of Daesh in Mosul. Indeed , there are wrong foundations about a lot of issues. Where the working paper calling for the Sunni to steps to address complaints that fighting insurgents have harmed their community unfairly.
The paper calls to stop "arbitrary arrests", and the release of detainees not convicted of crimes and review of anti - terrorism law. Opposed to Shiite politicians have long these demands while, calling for tougher more against terrorism, and often accuse Sunnis of sympathizing secretly with insurgents, and trying to seize back on Alsulth.oatalib much of the year , more control over the security forces in their provinces, where he says behind the Iron, a member of Nineveh provincial council, said that it is necessary to give local security forces a greater role in the protection of the province, and that these forces are under the control of conservative rather than multiple outside Mahafezh.lkn successive governments Shiite parties were not trust Sunni security forces and sometimes refuses to arm them or pay their salaries, Since the collapse of the Sunni police forces in front of Daesh 2014 reinforced Shiite fears that Sunnis do not resist the militants.
Linked to the security demands of the Sunni deep opposition to armed Shiite factions that have a significant role in the fight Daesh but also accused of abuses against Sunnis. It calls on the working paper to solve the popular crowd, but the armed Shiite factions , calling for greater official recognition of its authority.
Shiite factions and Kurdish fighters hold large parts of Nineveh and other Sunni areas of the province, and the federal police with a Shiite majority in Mosul fighting alongside the army. Sunnis want to leave these forces quickly. But MP Ali al - Adeeb, the head of state law in parliament, says that these forces can not leave Mosul unless they are sure not to return the thought of Daesh. It confirms "We are concerned about the return of this thought and control Daesh again , " the main Sunni .almtalb is to give provinces more power and resources giving Sunnis more opinion in the areas dominated by them.
The main issue is how the distribution of government funds, where Sunnis complain long ago that the regions with a Shiite majority are more budget and develop more in infrastructure and direct investments.
This issue will become more acute after the fall Daesh, because there is a need for billions of dollars to rebuild the Sunni cities that were destroyed during the fighting Daesh, and there are rumblings of discontent from the lack of a plan for reconstruction in consultation with Alsnh.otdao working paper also to major reforms to ensure that the year the voice of the central government, where the paper calls for an end to the system of the division of government positions , which puts ministries , however , the political factions , especially Alhieih.ala that this could face resistance from Shiite parties that have vested interests. Shiites also say their victory in the elections , giving them the right to form governing coalitions. Some Shiites believe that the Sunni grievances of Shiite domination that is only fueling the Taivih.ovi his comment Tuesday, political prominent Shiite Ammar al - Hakim warned agendas incite societies, religions and sects against each other, as "one of the gaps that the income of which Daesh were playing the social fabric and claim the protection said a certain range ".oausband Iraq conflict a potential least on the Kurds. Kurdistan region has repeatedly called for a referendum on full independence from Iraq. Now the Kurdish leadership says that this referendum could be the beginning of next September. It is likely to raise this crisis because the Kurds seized during the fighting Daesh on large areas outside the autonomous region most notably the oil - rich Kirkuk where the claim has long been that it belongs to them , despite having a lot of Sunnis and Turkmens in which the Arabs.
All Sunni factions did not sign the paper work. Since the fall of Saddam in 2003 Sunni Arabs from the divisions and the lack of a strong political party pushing for their cause in Baghdad suffer. If no settlement is reached with the Baghdad government, the claim is enhanced year self - rule similar to Kurdistan.
But so far this issue is still limited between Sunnis because of their provinces lacking resources, especially oil wealth. However, the Liberation of Iraq, the former governor of Nineveh, calls with a few others to an independent province, says that the priority is the liberation of Mosul and then hold talks with Baghdad. But when that fails, the Mosul residents have the right to establish their own territory own, where "we still need to Baghdad only to protect the border , " he said.
