Syria and Iran support the nomination of Allawi as PM

Believe it or not! The The excluded politi­cians cri­sis will be solved soon, most of the excluded (if not all) will return to the elec­tion campaign.The only prob­lem with the above is that: How the polit­i­cal will play this to the public?

To over­come the prob­lem “legally”, Al-Iraqiya formed a “Defense Com­mis­sion” con­tains a group of law experts and lawyers to defend the right of its excluded mem­bers (Dhafir AL-Ani and Salih Al-Mutlaq).

Add to the above, Allawi is head­ing to Tehran to meet Iran­ian offi­cials, after Syria and Iran agreed on Allawi as the next Prime Min­is­ter. In a press con­fer­ence he revealed that he received invi­ta­tions from Iran and Turkey, but sources revealed that Allawi sent a del­e­ga­tion to Iran meet with the Head of the Iraqi Dep. — Rev­o­lu­tion Guards “Qasim Sulaimani” .

I think Syria played a big role in con­vinc­ing Iran to accept Allawi, a gift from Syria to the U.S. for appoint­ing a new U.S. ambas­sador in Dam­as­cus (Robert Ford one of the first who called to engage the Sun­nis in Iraq), and a sign of a “good will” from the Iran to the U.S. Administration.

Odierno, the U.S. com­man­der who loves to be in the spot­lights and to add his opin­ion even on non­mil­i­tary issues (such as the elec­tion cri­sis with Hashemi and the Oil and Gas Law), said today that a small US force might remain in Iraq. this is just a U.S. attempt to obtain some cred­its, giv­ing the impres­sion that the U.S. pres­sure is behind the return of the excluded politi­cians (Robert Gates, repeated Odierno’s words, which makes you take the state­ment more serious).
