Serious crisis for Maliki and Hakim

I am not sure if peo­ple under­stood the seri­ous­ness of Kirkuk provin­cial law cri­sis? It is not about Kirkuk, it is about show­ing muscles.

This is to refresh your memory:

Not long time ago I reported about a new par­lia­men­tary polit­i­cal bloc meant to block Maliki’s gov­ern­ment decisions.

The group issued a state­ment today say­ing that house speaker deputy Al-Atya is not telling the truth:

The ses­sion started with the pres­ence of 151 MP and the counts held in front of the [TV] cam­eras. The secret vot­ing started with 140 MP, 127 voted “yes” and 3 voted “no”, 1 Mp passed and there were 9 empty papers.

The sig­na­tures belong to the same groups I men­tioned above [inter­est­ing to see Ja’fari’s new party among them].

Vot­ing for the provin­cial law, for the first time the same group demon­strated their deci­sive effec­tive­ness in the polit­i­cal process.

This is a real warn­ing for Maliki and Al-Hakim. Think about all the com­ing deci­sions need to be voted on in the par­lia­ment such as the secu­rity agree­ment and Al Hakim’s dream of south­ern province.
