The growing political fortunes of veteran Adel Abdul Mahdi in the candidacy for the formation of the new Iraqi government, amid uncertainty about its relationship with Iran, and is the candidate directly or minimum candidate to avoid inter-differences between its allies in Iraq, as well as leave a margin of maneuver for the new Iraqi Prime Minister especially In the relationship with Washington, according to Al-Arab newspaper.
This comes as the ambiguity of the US position on the course of the political arrangements that are accelerating in Baghdad continues.
Despite the success of the Iranian-backed Iraqi political axis in the inauguration of one of its members as the speaker of the parliament, the governor of Anbar, Mohammed al-Halbusi, amid expectations to proceed to resolve the candidate for prime minister in accordance with the same formula, but the leaks were conflicting on the fortunes of Abdul Mahdi, who previously enjoyed the support Iranian.
But the hardline Shiite cleric, Moqtada al-Sadr, insisted that Abdul Mahdi was his personal candidate, and that he was stuck in the face of Iranian pressure aimed at pushing Faleh al-Fayadh, a candidate for the Fatah alliance led by Hadi al-Amiri, close to Tehran.
Political figures involved in the negotiations to form a new Iraqi government "Arabs" that "Tehran is about to give up its candidate Fayadh, in favor of Abdul Mahdi Mahdi candidate."
According to these figures, "Abdul Mahdi is the next prime minister in Iraq, unless there are surprises."
These figures say that Sadr is ready to support Abdul Mahdi as a member of his "Sason" alliance, although the latter did not participate in the elections. He left the party and political camps since leaving the post of minister of oil in Abadi's government after a large protest movement in 2005 calling for reform.
These figures corrected reports of Iran's support for Abdelmahdi as prime minister. She said Tehran remained determined to push Fayyad to the post.
Reveals leaks from the city of Najaf, the Supreme Religious Authority, Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, did not object to the nomination of Abdul Mahdi until now, which enhances the chances of the latter.
But the sources say that "the silence of Sistani may mean something other than the support of Abdul Mahdi, so the hypothesis of surprise exists." Sistani's opinion is crucial in choosing the Iraqi prime minister.
Observers take on Abdul Mahdi's desire to avoid confrontation, as he has already withdrawn from two positions as soon as the controversy about them by his opponents. So Sadr's supporters fear that Abdul Mahdi will step down as prime minister if Iran lifts its pressure on Iraq as it enters a critical phase of the US sanctions file.
At the same time, uncertainty surrounds the American position on the rapid political developments in Iraq, most notably the election of the Speaker of Parliament and the current debate over the candidate for prime minister.
It is reported that Washington can see in the new parliament speaker Mohamed Halabousi, a future ally in the pragmatic approach he adopts in political action.
Observers expect Abdul Mahdi to be a candidate acceptable to the United States, which explains the critical negation, issued by Hadi al-Amiri, who is affiliated with Iran, for information that confirmed the approach to the nomination of Abdul Mahdi.
Amiri's move increased his announcement Tuesday that his candidacy for the post of prime minister would be withdrawn soon.
But the information confirms that US diplomacy in Baghdad has not yet moved to support or oppose Abdul Mahdi.
If Iran succeeds in bringing Faleh al-Fayyad or any other pro-government figure to the post of prime minister in the new Iraqi government, the enormous American influence in Baghdad will be in danger. Tehran will have put its hand on the legislative and executive branches of Iraq, The Republic is under deliberation, and it is largely formal.
Observers downplayed that Abdul Mahdi may not be the candidate of Tehran, pointing out that the Iranian plan is to pressure a hardline candidate in his loyalty (Fayadh) in order to accept a candidate seems to be less loyal (Abdul Mahdi), considering it a game exposed.
Abdelmahdi, who studied in France and holds his nationality, lived a volatile political life that led him to surrender to the circle of sectarian influence through his association with the House of the Wise.
If Abdul Mahdi had preferred in previous times not to enter into clashes with other Shiite parties, because he knows that those parties could threaten his interests after Ammar al-Hakim was weakened by parties and militias are closer to the Wali Faqih of others because of its hegemony over the political decision in Iraq Making it able to control its wealth.
Thus, the affiliation of Abdul Mahdi to the Shiite trend weaker is a reasonable reason to contemplate over the past period, which confirms his ability to understand what is happening around him shifts in positions of power.
The Iraqi political observer said that all this is not hidden on the chest, and if it is true that Sadr is behind the nomination of Abdel-Mahdi for the post of prime minister, it means retreat from the conditions set earlier in the forefront of integrity and clean hand and national bias.
The observer points out that many suspicions of corruption hover around Abdul Mahdi and there is a famous robbery of a bank in Baghdad, where his bodyguards were involved. And that, after shaking hands with the national and leftist beliefs and joined the mass of the Muslims, does not believe in the concept of the homeland nor citizenship. It is similar to many who have been associated with the currents of political Islam.
The observer stresses that in any case Adel Abdul Mahdi can not be considered a candidate close to the US Embassy at this particular time. There are a lot of files on the Iranian-Iraqi relationship may not be the presence of Abdul Mahdi, an assistant to open. Not only because it tends to Iran but also because the balance of power indicates that it can be weakened by the forces that tend to support Iran in its conflict with the United States.
He concludes by stressing that Abdul Mahdi is not the strong man on whom the United States can depend. If it turns out to have American support, it means that Washington plans to see Iraq as a secondary target of its sanctions. Which could further complicate the Iraqi issue.
