First, you need to see this:

Kur­dis­tan regional pres­i­den­tial coun­cil issued a state­ment con­demns the “con­spir­acy” of some Iraqi polit­i­cal blocs against the Kurds. Noth­ing new in the state­ment except the last part, which uses a threat language:

[The coun­cil] calls on all polit­i­cal par­ties to clar­ify their posi­tions com­mit­ment to the con­sti­tu­tion, fed­er­al­ism and the foun­da­tions of democ­racy, by con­trast, the Kur­dis­tan Regional Gov­ern­ment will be forced to respond to such vio­la­tion of the con­sti­tu­tional in dif­fer­ent way.

The state­ment ends with­out any fur­ther expla­na­tion of the “dif­fer­ent way”.

Kuwaiti news­pa­per Aljarida reported about a new Iraqi rec­on­cil­i­a­tion con­fer­ence in Cairo soon.

The report says that united Iraqi Alliance and few of “Awak­en­ing Coun­cils” groups will par­tic­i­pates in the con­fer­ence but there is no men­tion of any resis­tance or oppo­si­tion groups [the con­fer­ence is con­tributed by the an Amer­i­can insti­tute].

In their last para­graph, AKI reported that there are some resis­tance and Ba’athists groups to par­tic­i­pate in the negotiations.

I am not sure who will rep­re­sent the Ba’athists, but I am know that there not active mem­bers long time ago.
