In the “End of the polit­i­cal process” Sabah Ali Shahir says that the Iraqi gov­ern­ment is chas­ing its tail [I can’t find some­thing close to the Ara­bic expres­sion “an ox on water wheel”]:

The polit­i­cal process meant to start from one point to reach an open end­ing, but in the Iraqi case, it reaches the start point again.

An argu­ment accepted by Aljazeera report “An argu­ment on the reviv­ing the Shi­ite Coali­tion”, no doubt, the writer indi­rectly tar­get­ing Maliki’s “project” called on Al-Arab Online “recy­cling the sec­tar­ian ten­sion”:

Politi­cians warned Maliki of the con­se­quences of reviv­ing the Shhite Coali­tion, which might take the coun­try back to the sec­tar­ian con­flict, espe­cially after this move is wel­comed by the Moq­tada al-Sadr express­ing his enthusiasm.

Like it or not, the sec­tar­ian ten­sion is com­ing back accord­ing to Nazar Hatem on Al-Qabas:

Regard­less the final results of the provin­cial elec­tion, the next polit­i­cal alliances become inevitable and enough to bring the Iraqi arena in a new cycles of severe polit­i­cal tension.

The inter­est­ing thing about Al-Qabas report is that it reveals the “mys­te­ri­ous” visit of Ali Akbar Walaiti to Najaf, say­ing that Allawi ambi­tion to power is not pass­ing through the Amer­i­cans any­more, this ambi­tion can be achieved by lob­by­ing near the Iranians:

There is a pos­si­bil­ity of a coali­tion of the Supreme Coun­cil with Ayad Allawi, whom Sis­tani accepted his visit in Najaf after repeat­edly rejections.

At the same day, when Allawi vis­ited Sis­tani in Najaf after repeat­edly rejec­tions, Ali Akbar Walaiti the polit­i­cal adviser of the Iran­ian supreme leader was in Najaf, in an unof­fi­cial visit.

Dur­ing his meet­ings Walaiti expressed his country’s desire to pre­serve the Shi­ite Coali­tion, and widen its cir­cle to include Sun­nis also.
