- As reported on Moheet, Iraqi Con­sul­tants Coun­cil oppo­si­tion group sent a let­ter to Obama say­ing that the group does not rec­og­nize the cur­rent sec­tar­ian gov­ern­ment because it came to power based on a sec­tar­ian elec­tion. The group also asked Obama not fol­low Bush’s foot­steps in Iraq.

- Sadrists con­firmed that they do not trust Obama’s promise of change, Sadrist MP Lika’a Al Yaseen said:

The Sadrists can­not count on one per­son in the White House, we can’t see the U.S. other than an occu­pa­tion coun­try invaded Iraq.

Prob­a­bly these doubts are true, because Al-Quds Al-Arabi reported that Iraqis are wor­ried about George Biden option of divid­ing Iraqi into three regions.

- Syr­ian pres­i­dent Bashar Al-Assad received a let­ter from Muq­tada Al-Sadr handed over by a a Sadrists del­e­ga­tion who met with the Al-Assad and said:

The Sadrists reject this secu­rity agree­ment, and man­aged to gather 90 MP’s oppose this agree­ment in the Iraqi parliament.

After the meet­ing the meet­ing, the Sadrists del­e­ga­tion held a press con­fer­ence reported by Al-SharqAwsat Al– saying:

The secu­rity agree­ment will not see the light, even with the amend­ments. One arti­cle in the agree­ment says: “the U.S. will not seek to attack neigh­bor­ing coun­tries”, this is an elas­tic word and this is a very frag­ile article.

- An Amer­i­can mil­i­tary source told Al-Hayat the true story of the U.S. raid on Syria which is mis­match­ing the U.S. mil­i­tary offi­cial version:

The raid tar­geted a key Iraqi per­son ” Bad­ran Hisham” aka “Said Al-Kurdi” , who smug­gles gun­men across the Syr­ian — Iraqi borders.

- Iraqi source from the Iraqi intel­li­gence ser­vice told Iraqalaan that Cha­l­abi is polit­i­cally bank­rupt who doesn’t have an offi­cial posi­tion in the par­lia­ment or the gov­ern­ment, used by regional and for­eign pow­ers as a tool.
