Wi-News" review the list of "seven candidates" for the post of prime minister



BAGHDAD / Wi-News
Seven names circulated within the Iraqi political center, and with local and foreign press, a different candidate fare, to the presidency of the new Iraqi government.
And called on the Presidency of the Republic, the day Thursday, June 26th, 2014, the new parliament to hold its first meeting, in July 1 next, according to a statement Khodair al, Vice President of the Republic.
According call "official" for Khazaee, to the existence of a preliminary agreement on sovereign positions, must be completed before the date of the first meeting.
Did not reveal the political blocs concerned, the identity of the candidates for the three presidencies, especially the Council of Ministers.
But there are seven names have been circulating as a candidate for the post of prime minister, which was considered "key" with heightened security crisis left by the fall of the Sunni cities, however, militants "Daash", north and west of the country.
The seven candidates are:
Nouri al-Maliki
Is Nouri Kamel Mohammed Hassan al-Maliki, was born on June 20, 1950, holds a bachelor's degree from the Faculty of Theology in Baghdad, and a master's degree in Arabic from the University of Salahaddin in Erbil.
To join al-Maliki of the Dawa Party in 1970, and in 1980 Saddam Hussein issued a decree under which the ban on the Dawa Party, became members threatened to death, prompting Maliki and many members of the party to flee out of the country.
Resorted Maliki to Syria, which remained there until 1982, then moved to Iran, but he returned to Syria, and then split the Dawa party into two wings, one supporter of Iran, and the other refused to join the Iranian army to fight the Iraqi army during the war between the two countries, and in this period Fadel al-Maliki to stay in Syria.
Maliki was elected to form the first permanent government elected in May / May 2006, after being abandoned Ibrahim al-Jaafari, the former prime minister for his candidacy for the position after stiff opposition from Sunni and Kurdish blocs.
And handed al-Maliki office at the height of the violence, and the proliferation of armed groups Sunni and Shiite, but he launched in 2007 a security plan, known as the "law enforcement", targeted the armed factions affiliated to al-Qaeda, and the militia, the Mahdi Army of Moqtada al-Sadr before announcing the freeze in 2008.
Maliki was able to get a second term in 2010, after a legal and political struggle with a severe block "Iraq," led by Iyad Allawi, on the largest parliamentary bloc.
But his second term has seen a severe political crisis, as interpreted by Sunni politicians fabricated with the aim of exclusion and marginalization.
Maliki has faced the most difficult exam, while the year join the anti-central government demonstrations in Sunni provinces centered in the city of Ramadi.
The prime minister refused to meet the demands of the demonstrators, and it seems he has found what it represents a Sunni coup on the political process, contrary to what observers are saying as "a moment of anger Sunni approach of the government."
And politicians opposed to al-Maliki's political approach, and the loss of the ability to invent a good compromise with the political parties, as the focus was on specifications from the point of his strong desire to centralize decision in his hands, feeling skeptically of violators of opinion, not showing its flexibility. But on the other hand, those close to him say that he was "patriotic person."
With the entry of militants "Daash" city of Mosul on June 9, 2014, faded security presence for the government, with the withdrawal of the "shocking" to the officers and soldiers of the Sunni provinces.
And perhaps put the facts of the new security-Maliki in an awkward position, weakened his chances in the third term.
Before the days of the first session of parliament, al-Maliki appears to outside accounts, because of the increasing calls to step down, and with a sense of regional parties that al-Maliki has failed to spare Iraq the deteriorating situation, which is going through today.
But the negotiations now under way, may re-Maliki to the fore, because of the conflicting attitudes and regional interests on who is best suited for the post of prime minister.
Paper-Maliki is weak now, but have a bit of luck.
 
Ahmad Chalabi
The appointment of Ahmad Chalabi, the new Iraqi government, as a tribute to the man who was in on the eyes of the Americans, "the ideal person to be in the place of Saddam Hussein."
In fact, the fortunes collapsed Chalabi, who was a "tongue" audible by many in Washington, during the period that preceded the war.
There was a "whisper" of Washington that Chalabi, a Shiite, deceived Americans of spying for the Iranians.Chalabi has long denied this, saying, "They knew everything, I have funded the U.S. State Department to open an office of the National Conference in Tehran before the war. Think they Achtaroni to unload American anger at the policies of Bush the father." A statement to the Wi-News Winter 2013.
Chalabi was born in Baghdad in 1945 to a wealthy family working in the banking sector, he left Iraq in 1956 and lived mainly in the United States and London, except for a period in the mid-1990s when he tried to organize an uprising of Iraqi Kurdistan. The project ended in failure with hundreds of deaths.
Western diplomats believed that Chalabi, a seasoned politician, learn a lot about the negotiation and management in London and Washington, and possibly came from an academic background, successful majoring in mathematics.
In fact, he sees American people have the charisma and raises controversy, cunning and ambitious.
But many in Iraq accuse him of failing due to "consult" to disband the army and the establishment of a Commission for de-Baathification of Iraqi political life.
Chalabi has remained through the states of al-Maliki in the government, away from the scene, only appearances in the press, and for his constant "need to develop the financial sector and oil."
During the past two days, put his name firmly as an acceptable candidate for prime minister, and the leaks appeared different about the escalating chances to resolve the controversy over the end of the mandate of the second-Maliki.
Chalabi needs today to approve a Shiite and a Sunni and a Kurd, and understandings of an Iranian-American, and although it is available today, but it is still not guaranteed.
 
Adel Abdul-Mahdi
Before the arrival of Ammar al-Hakim to the leadership of the Islamic Supreme Council, Adel Abdul-Mahdi, was the second man in the Shiite party. Ammar is believed that the young man came with the mentality that remove the "old guard" of the command structure.
In fact, secluded himself Abdul-Mahdi, and his voice became confined to an editorial in the newspaper of "justice" that are owned.
Abdul-Mahdi was born in 1942 in the area Alaptowin, central Baghdad. Descended from the family lived in the upper bourgeoisie Almentvk (Nasiriyah now), and the origin of Kut, where he is still known to the family home there. His father was a minister during the reign of King Faisal I, was also a deputy in the Senate representative of the Iraqi Mentvk (Nasiriyah), which won him the title of Almentvki.
Abdul-Mahdi influenced in his youth with ideas of Arab nationalism and his childhood friendships with Ahmed Chalabi and Iyad Allawi, as he completed his secondary education in "Baghdad College" in Adhamiya.
In 1968 he left for France, he completes the fellowship stayed there in 1972, to go to Syria and then to Lebanon, which remained there to the time of the Israeli invasion and then left again to France to be returned to Iraq in 2003.
Built Abdul-Mahdi, socialist thought in the first instance, to that ended up being the moderate Shiite Islamic thought. Although rivals upheld as not religious opportunist entered the Islamic movement in search of political positions, it justifies the intellectual and political transformations by saying that it took 50 years, which is enough to change one.
Today, did not know whether to Adel Abdul Mahdi, any chances for his nomination as prime minister, and especially that of politicians who dominated their lethargy and laziness.
In return, it has the specifications may serve me to win, including his experience with moderation and economic liabilities, and successful relations with the Kurds.
 
Ibrahim al-Jaafari
Is Ibrahim Abdul Karim Acikr, nicknamed "al-Jaafari," was born in 1947 in the city of Karbala.
Moved to Mosul to complete his studies in medicine, where he stayed for four years in this city, and repeating some of the Dawa Party politicians that continue there with the leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood.
In 1989 he moved to London, and the revitalization of the existence of the Dawa Party, the political in Europe.
After 2003, was named the first president of the Iraqi Governing Council, and then as vice president in the interim government. In 2005, he served as head of government, but he did not continue with only seven months, before he relinquishes the post.
I have exposure to the campaign Jaafari fierce criticism from Sunnis and Kurds, while the role of the militias in the escalation of his reign, which coincided with the peak of the civil war in Iraq.
And discusses the candidate concerned file name Jaafari as prime minister as one of the candidates for the position, and it seems that the shares go up, as "an alternative to the call."
 
Faleh al-Fayad
In 2010, al-Maliki decided to shift from office Rubaie, the national security adviser, to submit a new candidate, Faleh al-Fayad, who has remained in this post until today.
I came to this personal Maliki, perhaps to satisfy Jaafari, who in turn lost the leadership of the Dawa party and the prime minister.
But Faleh al-Fayad, whose full name Faleh Faisal Fahd al-Fayad, took in his job security, and grabbed her well during the last period, has managed through the establishment of the institution a major security has a number of experts who reside security situation, and put their own ideas strategy of national security in Iraq.
Believes that Fayad, who hails from a family of Shiite opposition to Saddam Hussein, does not suffer from personal problems in the Shiite center and do not have similar problems with the Sunni parties, and non-financial problems involved. Some of those interested in the Stock Exchange of nominations see Fayad better than his peers in the "rule of law".
The importance of the nomination of the probability of accepting Fayad al-Maliki to step down personally, but he will insist on the survival of the position of the Dawa party, and will pay this name because many people think it should be a candidate, "security" for the deteriorating situation on the ground.
 
Tarek Najm
Named Tariq Najim Abdullah, was born in July 1946 in the city of Nasiriyah in Dhi Qar province.
He earned a doctorate from the University of Cairo in the Arabic language, and worked as a professor at Baghdad University, and the University of Basra until 1991, when he moved to Yemen and was appointed professor at the University of Sana'a, until 1996, when he left to London asking for political asylum in, and received British citizenship in 2002.
When the formation of the government of Ibrahim al-Jaafari, Ain Najm in his office as a "managing director", but emerged when chosen as general manager of the Office of Nuri al-Maliki after the government is formed, the first summer of 2006, the nomination of Abdul Halim Zuhairi, or what is known as a sheikh of the Dawa Party, and widened his powers over time to make it peer-Maliki in weight and stature.
Observers say he disciplined the star of flour, a little talk and laughter, highly secretive raise eyebrows around him. In the absence of many observers said that diplomatic engagement with government opponents reached the low grades, which forced Nuri al-Maliki to return again and meet all the conditions.
Transfer journalists about Salman Jumaili he asked the head of the parliamentary bloc of state law, Sheikh Khalid al-Attiyah for Tarek Najm and rumors about the tasks entrusted to him, was the A Sheikh, said he "does not know"!
But the star of his tasks was articulated regarding the crucial negotiations with the Kurds, and the reference in Najaf, and supervised at some point on a scalable "extremists" within Maliki's office.
May be a "state of law", it is feared that leads him on an offset press Maliki to his exit from the scene, so the push for the protection of the fortunes of 95 seats, the person providing the "new", but an expert in how things inside government offices.
 
Iyad Allawi
Needed for the nomination of Iyad Allawi as prime minister to a miracle. That if chosen, therefore, Iran and the Shiites of Iraq and Washington, received a common understanding of the chosen.
Iyad Allawi, the breed 1945, the Iraqi politician took over the presidency of the Iraqi interim government, following the Governing Council, up to April 2005.
Allawi, a graduate of a secondary college in Baghdad, Iraq, and a graduate of the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Baghdad, in 1970, then earned a master's degree from the University of London in 1975 and a doctorate from the same university in 1979. Consultant and work in epidemiology and environmental health at UNICEF from 1979 to 1981.
A Shiite politicians affiliated with the secular trend, but the Iraqi List, led by in 2010, made a political year, and put in the confrontation with al-Maliki and other Shiite parties.
