Election Day curfew announced by Al-Qaeda

Why nobody reported this? The ban of Salih Al-Mutlaq reached a semi-solution (I reported a week ago that there be a solu­tion soon), by replac­ing him with his brother Ibrahim Al-Mutlaq to take Salih’s place in Al-Iraqiya List as sec­ond after Allawi.

Maliki con­tin­ued his dom­i­na­tion on key offi­cial post in the Gov. before the elec­tion, appoint­ing his polit­i­cal adviser Sadiq Al-Rukabi as the new ambas­sador in Wash­ing­ton. For­mer Najaf gov­er­nor and Dawa Party mem­ber Asaad Abu Al-Kalil as the new ambas­sador in Tehran, and another Dawa Party mem­ber Jawad Hadi Abbas as the new ambas­sador in Jordan.

Two of Maliki’s “Tribal advis­ers” Abboud, Wahid-Issawi, and Isa Al-Zamili are also excluded by J and A say­ing they were were “Othu Friqa” = “Cell lead­ers” in Baath Party.

Both men are “State of Law” can­di­dates in Najaf, but the author­ity in Najaf is try­ing to play bad com­mu­ni­ca­tion we didn’t received the offi­cial J and A deci­sion yet.

Al-Qaeda in Iraq aka “Iraq’s Islamic State” released a state­ment declares a cur­few on 07-March (elec­tion day) from 06.00 to 18.00 and the one who will:

Defy the law of God, and this clear warn­ing, will expose him­self to fire where all kind of weapons will be used.

Is this authen­tic, or just polit­i­cal par­ties games? The image below for exam­ple is of leaflet warns the peo­ple of Anbar from vot­ing to Allawi and signed by Al-Qaeda in Iraq leader Abu Omar Al-Baghdadi (wrongly writ­ten). The funny side is that these leaflets are dis­tr­buted on Anbar Province by Helicopters.
