[size=52]Concern about the "return of al-Sadr" is causing a split within the coordination framework between the Maliki and al-Amiri wings[/size]

[size=45]Baghdad / Tamim Al-Hassan[/size]
[size=45]Although the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, confirmed his retirement from the political process twice within days, the coordination framework is still worried about the latter's return and "sabotaging" the euphoria of victory.[/size]
[size=45]The "frameworkers" are trying to postpone the announcement of the success of the "consensus government" project, which was demanded after the last elections, for at least two weeks.[/size]
[size=45]Parliament is supposed to resume its sessions around mid-July, after the legislative recess ends.[/size]
[size=45]It is expected, during this period, that the Electoral Commission will send the names of the alternative representatives of the Sadrists, who number more than 70 deputies.[/size]
[size=45]Until that moment, an informed source within the coordination framework said in an interview with Al-Mada: "We will have started the first steps to confront the new government."[/size]
[size=45]And the leader of the Sadrist movement during the past eight months, stood against any attempts by the "coordinator" to implement the consensual project to form the new government.[/size]
[size=45]And the source, who asked not to be named, adds: "We still expect the Sadrists to return at any moment... The current MPs may submit requests to Parliament to return before the names of the replacements arrive."[/size]
[size=45]The leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, allowed one of his bloc's representatives not to resign and remain in parliament after the mass resignations of the current's representatives.[/size]
[size=45]A spokesman for the Sadrist bloc, Haider al-Haddad, said that "the number of the resigned parliamentarians is 73, which is the number of the Sadrist bloc."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Haddad explained, "MP Burhan Al-Maamouri was nominated as an independent and won the votes of his audience, and then joined the Sadrist bloc. The man came with us and submitted his resignation, but an exception was issued by His Eminence."[/size]
[size=45]The leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, said last Wednesday that he had decided to withdraw from the political process "so that he would not participate in any way with the corrupt," in the second confirmation of his retirement.[/size]
[size=45]Al-Sadr pledged, in a speech to members of his bloc who resigned from the House of Representatives in Al-Hanana, that he will not participate in the upcoming elections “with the corrupt,” stressing that “if we participate in the upcoming elections after removing the corrupt, you will remain in your position, so stay ready and wait and do not disperse. “..[/size]
[size=45]A number of Sadrist bloc deputies revealed the outcomes of the meeting with the leader of the current in Najaf, which began with a group prayer.[/size]
[size=45]And the resigned MP from the bloc, Haider Al-Amiri, said in a brief blog post that "there is no going back with the corrupt, and the matter has been resolved."[/size]
[size=45]In turn, the resigned Sadrist MP, Haider al-Muhammadawi, wrote: “There is no return to the point of the head of a line. I was honored with all the honor.”[/size]
[size=45]The Sadrist deputies submitted their resignations to the head of the Sadrist bloc in Parliament, Hassan al-Adhari last week, who in turn submitted them to Parliament Speaker Muhammad al-Halbousi.[/size]
[size=45]According to the desire of the leader of the Sadrist movement, the procedures for signing the resignations were recorded in a video clip.[/size]
[size=45]Al-Halbousi announced that he had signed on to accept the resignations “reluctantly” based on Al-Sadr’s desire, referring to the Parliament Speaker’s dissatisfaction.[/size]
[size=45]Observers considered what the leader of the Sadrist movement had done, that he had submitted the next government and parliament to the coordinating framework on a "golden platter."[/size]
[size=45]After "Al-Sadr's Retirement"[/size]
[size=45]Al-Sadr’s “surprise” confused the opponents and partners, and controversy prevailed within the coordination framework, which was divided over the position of the leader of the movement and the future of the government.[/size]
[size=45]Sources from within the "Coordination" indicated that "the wing of Nuri al-Maliki - the former prime minister, seems more determined to proceed without waiting for al-Sadr, which is something that the wing of Hadi al-Amiri, the leader of the Badr Organization, disagrees with."[/size]
[size=45]Al-Maliki tried to cover up the news that showed his enthusiasm for the Sadrists' absence from the political scene, by talking about "meeting points" with the current.[/size]
[size=45]The leader of the State of Law coalition, in a tweet on "Twitter", described the differences with the Sadrists after the resignation, as "simple and not strategic."[/size]
[size=45]He added that his relationship with the Sadrist movement: "It always requires us to be careful and search for points of convergence, cooperation and integration, and they are many."[/size]
[size=45]The leader of the current had announced more than once during the recent political crisis that he welcomed most of the parties to the coordination framework with the exception of al-Maliki.[/size]
[size=45]On the other hand, Hadi al-Amiri, the head of the Al-Fateh Alliance, was quarreling with al-Maliki over the nature of the next steps after the "absence of al-Sadr" and the position of the next prime minister, had praised the position of the leader of the movement.[/size]
[size=45]Al-Amiri said in a statement last Friday, commenting on the movement’s resignation: “I stand by the stance of His Eminence Muqtada al-Sadr for the sake of the people and to cross this stage.”[/size]
[size=45]During the last eight months of the crisis, Al-Amiri was charged with the coordination framework to negotiate with the leader of the Sadrist movement.[/size]
[size=45]According to the sources, "Al-Amiri" defends "slowing down the steps within the coordination in an attempt to persuade al-Sadr or his desire to return."[/size]
[size=45]According to those sources, the leader of the Badr Organization "also defends his desire to obtain the position of prime minister."[/size]
[size=45]It is expected that the Al-Fateh Alliance may compete or exceed the share of the rule of law in Parliament after obtaining alternative seats from the Sadrists.[/size]
[size=45]The “inside the coordination” controversy prevails over the alternative names, as “Al-Fateh” claims that after replacing the deputies, the number of its seats will be 44, compared to 40 seats or less for the State of Law coalition.[/size]
[size=45]In light of the supposed superiority of the Al-Fateh Alliance, it will have the upper hand in choosing the next prime minister.[/size]
[size=45]On the other hand, the third wing within the “Coordination Committee,” which presents itself as the “moderate wing,” is the Wisdom Movement led by Ammar al-Hakim. It supports Haider al-Abadi to head the government.[/size]
