As usual Maliki attacked the Ba’ath Party again, which become a daily theme to boost his elec­tion chances. At the same time Iraqi TV aired con­fes­sion of three per­sons claim­ing they are Ba’athists and they staged the last series bombing.

The denial of these con­fes­sions came from unex­pected place, the Sadr­sists rep­re­sen­ta­tive in Par­lia­ment Baha’a Al-Araji who said that these con­fes­sions are fake, the three men on TV are ex-prisoners just released by the Amer­i­can forces.

At the same time we see Ammar AL-Hakim soft­ened his lan­guage against the Ba’ath Party and there are even rumors say that he went to Turkey to meet the Ba’athists, while his Sadrists ally Muqatada Al-Sadr released a state­ment inwhich he rejected any rec­on­cil­i­a­tion with Ba’athists.

In the com­ing days I will inves­ti­gate the real­ity of the Ba’ath Party return to the polit­i­cal stage, how true is the Ba’athists come­back? What are the prepa­ra­tion made the Ba’ath Party to return to the polit­i­cal stage?

Stay tuned.…
