    [size=45]The American "Foreign Policy" magazine saw that Iraq is on the brink of a Shiite civil war, unlike the popular protests in 2019, which were born out of frustration caused by political corruption.[/size]
    [size=45]The magazine said a report that "Muqtada al-Sadr was able within 24 hours to show the extent of his strength, when the streets of the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, were subjected to violence before this violence stopped, at his request in both cases," noting that "the events revealed the geopolitical battle taking place between Iran and Iraq's efforts. to form a government in Baghdad.[/size]
    [size=45]And the American magazine asserts, “The cycle of catastrophic events that culminated with parts of Baghdad turning into a war zone was sparked by a largely ignored statement by a religious leader, Ayatollah Kazem al-Hairi, who announced last August his retirement from his position as a religious authority with immediate effect, Surprisingly, he proceeded to ask his followers to support Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei instead, with the aim of limiting Sadr’s influence.[/size]
    [size=45]However, Tehran's attempt to gain influence over Sadr's followers was not well-thought-out, and failed to consider his supporters to be loyal to him without hesitation.[/size]
    [size=45]"Foreign Policy" continues, "Al-Sadr's retirement from politics prompted his supporters to take to the streets of Baghdad, after which Al-Sadr gave his supporters 60 minutes to withdraw from Parliament and stop all acts of violence, and his supporters immediately obeyed his demands, and sent a message to Tehran that regardless of As for how you might try to influence Iraqi politics, Sadr is still in control of the ground.”[/size]
    [size=45]According to the American magazine, “This battle with Iran has been going on since the Iraqi elections in October 2021 left the country in a political stalemate, and without an outright winner at the polls, no political party had a majority to form a government, pushing the country into months of ongoing political instability. “.[/size]
    [size=45]He pointed out that "the country finds itself facing high rates of poverty, an increase in child labor, and record unemployment rates after the interim government was constitutionally prevented from passing the budget bill."[/size]
    [size=45]And she points out that "by winning the largest bloc in the government, the Sadr bloc won 73 out of 329 seats, significantly outperforming the Iran-backed coalition, and it dealt a strong blow to Tehran."[/size]
    [size=45]And the American magazine says, "With Iran's refusal to lose its influence in Iraq and Al-Sadr's refusal to retreat from his anti-Iran stance, the two polarized political wings found themselves in a predicament that finally turned to violence at the end of last month."[/size]
    [size=45]In its analysis, the magazine considers that "this represents the worst internal Shiite conflict in Iraq in years, until now, after the Shiite demographic majority in Iraq has remained largely unified since the fall of the previous regime."[/size]
    [size=45]According to “Foreign Policy”, “For months, al-Sadr suffered repeated blows from Iran after pledging to exclude Iranian-backed parties from participating in forming an Iraqi government, and in February of this year, in a last attempt to cooperate with al-Sadr, Iran sent General Ismail He invited me to meet him, and Sadr allegedly responded angrily to the attempted courtship: “What does Iraqi politics have to do with you?”[/size]
    [size=45]Ultimately, according to the magazine, "Iran's insistence forced al-Sadr to abandon his victory on June 12, and instead take the fight to the streets of Iraq."[/size]
    [size=45]Al-Sadr has since called for early elections, but as political turmoil continues in Iraq, another election is unlikely to repair the deep structural damage inflicted on it.[/size]
    [size=45]The analysis concludes that the internal Shiite conflict is the worst in Iraq in years. Even now, the Shiite demographic majority in Iraq has remained largely unified since the fall of Saddam Hussein. During the first election process in 2005, Sistani, who is also the spiritual leader of most Shiite Muslims globally, supported the United Iraqi Alliance, which led to a landslide victory for the Shiite-majority party rally, but over time, this alliance disintegrated. Combined with the Iraqi public's mistrust of the political elite, this has led to an increasingly polarized landscape among Shiites, with a deep schism between the Sadr nationalist group and the Popular Mobilization Forces heavily influenced by Iran.[/size]
