This is very weird, Sadrists show signs of accept­ing SOFA;

Sadrists spokesman AL-Ubaidi told Al-Sharq Al-Awsat that the Sadrists can accept the SOFA agree­ment for one or two years to see the outcome:

We will see what kind of agree­ment it will be and the results of the nego­ti­a­tions, we will give our view and pos­si­bly we will sup­port the Iraqi gov­ern­ment if it insists on the with­drawal of the occu­pa­tion forces, and this is our demand.

We do not say we accept the agree­ment, but we can for its imple­men­ta­tion for a year or two years if there is any benefit.

While Sadrists MP Al-Masudi showed his rejec­tion to SOFA and revealed a coor­di­na­tion among the 22 July group to pre­vent pass­ing the agree­ment in the parliament.

I think Al-Ubaidi as one of the Sadr trend politi­cian leader with his direct con­tact to Muq­tada Al-Sadr is more accu­rate than the other MP.

The United Iraqi Alliance expressed their total refusal of SOFA if its not con­tains a timetable and immu­nity can­cel­la­tion as they con­firmed this to Awan.
