Baghdad - Mawazine News
The recent movement of the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, opened the door to new expectations that he could return to the political arena by inflaming the street for mass protests against the House of Representatives after he succeeded in voting on 7 articles out of 15 articles of the new election law, which included Merging provincial and legislative elections into one law, and adopting the single-circuit system according to the proportional "St. Lego" mechanism.
And Muqtada al-Sadr had instructed the day before yesterday, Wednesday - in a move described as ambiguous - that 8 of the movement's most prominent leaders not travel outside Iraq during the blessed month of Ramadan, as it came in a statement issued by his office, "The administrative official in Hanana, Brother Mustafa al-Yaqoubi, was told to inform Sheikh Mahmoud al-Jayashi." And Mr. Haider Al-Jabri, Mr. Aoun Al-Nabi, Sheikh Hassan Al-Athari, Mr. Jalil Al-Nouri, Sheikh Ahmed Al-Mutairi, Sheikh Kazem Al-Issawi and Sheikh Moayad Al-Asadi not to travel due to private and general necessities.
These developments come the day after a session held by the House of Representatives at 3 a.m. on March 20, in which the members present voted on half of the articles of the amended election law, which the Sadrist movement strongly rejects after it won the majority of parliamentary seats (73 out of 329 seats) in the October elections. October 2021, which adopted the multiple constituency system for the first time in the Iraqi elections.
Those elections also witnessed the rise of 40 independent deputies from political currents and movements that emerged from the protest squares and by relying on the multiple constituency system, without taking the “St. Which led - at the time - to enhance the chances of victory for the large blocs and entities at the expense of small parties and independents, according to observers.
What is al-Sadr planning?
The Iraqi Council of Representatives is seeking to complete the vote on the remaining paragraphs of the amended election law in a session that Parliament announced will be next Saturday, March 25, which paves the way for several scenarios that were put forward in conjunction with al-Sadr's "mysterious" tweet not to travel 8 of his movement's leaders.
Meanwhile, a prominent member of the Sadrist movement - on condition of anonymity - reveals that Al-Sadr rejects the new election law, of which Parliament voted on half of its paragraphs, and threatened to support mass protests against Parliament this time if the latter insisted on voting on the rest of the law's paragraphs.
The spokesman indicates that al-Sadr's support for popular and mass protests will be in an unannounced manner this time, according to him, attributing the reason for this to prevent the recurrence of internal fighting as happened last August inside the Green Zone, stressing that al-Sadr will wait until the end of Ramadan to know the response of the blocs. Big on the ground, as he put it.
In turn, political researcher Majasheh Al-Tamimi describes the amendment of the new election law as a "direct provocation" of the Sadrist movement and the supreme authority in Najaf, which had demanded in 2019 to legislate an election law that enjoys the confidence of the masses, adding, "Resorting to the amendment is a violation of Najaf, which desires a law that encourages massive electoral participation." ".
As a result, the Iraqi arena will be on the verge of a new political crisis, especially since most of the political forces that are outside parliament and even the real independent forces are against the amendment, according to Al-Tamimi.
With regard to Al-Sadr preventing some leaders of his movement from traveling, Al-Tamimi - who is close to the Sadrist movement - says that until now, the statement of the travel ban has not been interpreted by the movement, pointing out that this relates to specific issues that may be related to the positions that the movement will take later, according to his expression.
Will the protests return?
For his part, independent MP Hadi al-Salami reveals an agreement between a group of independent representatives, some emerging parties, and various groups of activists and civil movements to organize a large demonstration and sit-in in front of the Green Zone and the parliament building today, Friday, and tomorrow, in order to prevent the parliament session from being held and to refuse to pass the rest of the paragraphs of the Third Amendment Law. of the new election law.
According to Al-Salami, the parliament session in which it voted on half of the paragraphs of the amended election law is a violation of the parliament’s internal system, as the session was scheduled to take place on March 19, but the parliament speaker held it at dawn on March 20, contrary to the internal system of the parliament, which It stipulates that the agenda of any session be announced 48 hours before it is held, he said.
Among the other violations - recorded by the independent representative on the amended law - is that the mechanism for its submission was not through the Council of Ministers or the President of the Republic, as the draft law came as a proposal by a group of deputies, stressing that the draft law must come through the executive authority, which will in turn supervise the elections from During the commission, he warned that the new law would take Iraq steps back, and would also strengthen partisanship and the struggle for power and money.
Unknown options.
Independent political researcher Diaa Wajid al-Muhandis agrees with a member of the Sadrist movement in the return of al-Sadr in a new formula that does not rely on storming the Green Zone and the parliament, but rather through popular pressure and stopping the movement’s joints in state ministries, expecting large protests and demonstrations after Ramadan, in which the Sadrist movement will participate with the forces Civil society rejecting the amended election law.
The engineer adds that the large political parties are proceeding with new arrangements for the next stage without taking into account that al-Sadr is the first winner in the recent elections, in addition to not participating, even in a "shadow" manner, in the Sudanese Shiite government, which includes dozens of advisors without any of them being from the movement. .
Contrary to previous views, political analyst Ali al-Bayati seems optimistic about Parliament's success in completing the vote on the new election law and passing it with a majority of votes owned by the State Administration coalition - which includes Shiite, Sunni and Kurdish blocs - without any opposition, with the exception of some independent blocs affiliated with the protest squares.
Al-Bayati reduces the possibility of popular protests that prevent the holding of the next Saturday session, especially since most of the political forces, whether participating in Parliament or the opposition, are fully prepared for any electoral process. Ended 29 / H
