chattels if this leak is true, it is not surprising - of course Maliki opposes Muhammad Tawfiq's nomination. But if Amiri backs out, that collapses the house of cards, & Iraq is back to square one with this. https://twitter.com/UticaRisk
chattels This last point makes me wonder how Muhammad Tawfiq could be more effective than AAM. Lack of any base was part of AAM's failure. Might Sadr & Amiri agree on him understanding that he'll just be a hapless figurehead to buy them time at this tough moment? Perhaps.

chattels #Iraq president Salih is taking an unorthodox approach to the Iraqi constitution on the PM candidate issue, circumventing the "biggest bloc" issue (and even rejecting candidates that seemed to fulfill the formal bloc criteria), instead referring to popular legitimacy, consensus.

chattels [Baghdad-Ain] The chances of the prime minister's candidate, Muhammad Tawfiq Allawi, returned again after they were hampered last week when he approached the assignment.
An informed political source said in a press statement, "There has been a consensus that occurred between the Al-Fatah coalitions and others that occurred during the past few hours to submit the name of the candidate [Muhammad Tawfiq Allawi] to the President of the Republic in order to assign him to form a new government."
chattels The question remains as to whether President Salih believes that Allawi is acceptable to the protesters. According to banners in Tahir Square Allawi is not acceptable.

larrykn Al-Asaib names a "strongly-armed" candidate for prime minister: the rest is over.
The government's ability to manage the country's security and security, as well
Baghdad- Iraq today: The Sadekon bloc, a subsidiary of the Asaib Ahl al-Haq movement, on Wednesday revealed the name of a candidate who said he was "strong" for the prime minister, while stressing that the rest of the candidates' names ended their chances.
"The names that were put forward in the media before President Barham Saleh's departure now have no chances, but there is a name that is still on the table and there may be a political consensus, and maybe not, and that is not yet decided until it is officially announced," said Ahmed al-Kanani, a member of the bloc.
"The name currently coming up strongly is the head of the Iraqi intelligence service, Mustafa al-Kadhimi, who has the acceptability of some political blocs, and there are political blocs opposed to taking office, and perhaps the next few hours will clarify the situation once and for all," he said.
Iraq has been living in a constitutional vacuum since the deadline for the president to appoint a candidate to form the next government on December 16, due to deep disagreements over the candidate.
There have also been unprecedented protests since October 25, with violence that left some 600 people dead and more than 17,000 injured, mostof them protesters, according to human rights, medical and security sources.
The protesters forced the government of Adel Abdel Mahdi to resign on December 1, insisting that all political elites accused of corruption and waste of state funds, which have ruled since the overthrow of Saddam Hussein's regime in 2003, be held accountable.

larrykn Like every new day. A new candidate for prime minister. And this time a person (nor) has never known before!
The government's ability to manage the country's security and security, as well
Baghdad- Iraq today: An informed source said, Wednesday that a new name entered the race track to get the post of head of the interim government, after the failure to reach a specific name, despite the introduction of several names.
"The advisor in the presidency, Naeem al-Suhail, who is close to the State of Law Coalition, headed by Nouri al-Maliki, entered his name among the names of the candidates for prime minister, before the name was quickly pushed to be among the contenders for the position shortly before the appointment date," the source said.
"Al-Suhail may be the next prime minister, after a number of political forces agreed to name him as a compromise candidate, given the big differences over the nomination and the violation of constitutional times," he said.
"The file naming the prime minister and his mandate to form a government has approached more than once in the past two days, but reasons related to the candidate have prevented this from being achieved," the source said.
He noted that "Al-Suhail will present him as an independent and non-controversial candidate, in the absence of a major position in the past, as well as his little appearance in the political scene over the past period, although he has served as a consultant in more than one place, most recently the presidency of the republic."
On Wednesday (January 29, 2020), President Barham Saleh sent a letter to the political forces concerning the appointment of the new prime minister, in which he threatened to name whoever he deems fit for the post, by the end of Next Saturday, if the forces do not reach a new candidate. http://iraqtoday.com/news/36709/مثل-كل-يوم-جديد-مرشح-جديد-لرئاسة-الوزراء--وهذه-المرة-شخص--نكرة--لم-يعرف-من-قبل-
larrykn Al-Maliki topples Sadr and Al-Ameri candidate at the last minute: I will never accept Mohammed Allawi!
The government's ability to manage the country's security and security, as well
Baghdad- Iraq today: The president of the Republic, Barham Ahmed Saleh, was heading on Thursday morning, to commission engineer Mohamed Tawfiq Allawi to form the interim government after receiving final approvals from the fatah and other blocs, but a phone call blocked this path, and may topple the consensus candidate, and keep him from the competition once and for all, which will be said in the next few hours.
According to the sources who spoke to Iraq today, "the president of the republic made a phone call late Wednesday evening, a phone call with the head of the coalition state of law Nouri al-Maliki to explore his opinion on the assignment of Allawi after it was agreed, but he was surprised by the categorical rejection of Maliki, who said that he will not accept the passing of a figure like Allawi on certain charges."
The sources pointed out, that "Al-Maliki in turn made a phone call, which can be loud and angry with the head of the construction alliance Hadi al-Ameri, informed him of his refusal and his coalition to proceed with the step of assigning Allawi to the next prime minister, threatening to take practical measures in the event of this path, including withdrawal from the Fatah alliance."
"Al-Ameri later informed the President of the Republic to wait, until the matter is resolved by consensus and in-depth discussions within the construction coalition for fear of fragmentation as well," the sources said.
larrykn Saleh Mohammed al-Iraqi, who is close to Sadr's leader Moqtada al-Sadr, commented thursday on the publication of a person who criticized Tasinem Mohammed Allawi for the presidency of the government, noting that stubbornness on all sides will not work.
Saleh al-Iraqi replied in a Facebook post that "the equation that you claim, rebel, is: (a) does not agree with (b) and (c) tries to procrastinate and wants to drag Iraq into chaos, strife and civil war."
"As we have had before your stand and as we have supported you, they will not make an effort to deliver those who do not conform to the whims of the blocs, but in accordance with what the people want from a government that is carrying out its interim duties, especially early elections and other important details, and will only preserve Iraq's integrity, prestige and sovereignty," he said.
"You want a homeland, we are obliged to save the country from the hands of corruption on the one hand and the hands of the saboteurs on the one hand, and even to save you from the mandas who have taken root in your revolution, and from all corrupt people, so that we can try all those who have offended the homeland, no homeland with the mandisines, no homeland with the occupiers, no homeland with the occupiers," Saleh al-Iraqi said.
He called for a word between us and you, that we should not worship but God and love only the homeland, and that we preserve Iraq with all reason and wisdom, otherwise we will lose what we want: (the homeland).

Baghdad: President Barham Saleh will appoint a former prime minister to run the post, a political source said Thursday.
"President Barham Saleh will appoint the current head of the intelligence service, Mustafa al-Kadhimi, to head the next government, if the political forces do not reach a final agreement," the source said.
"Al-Kadhimi is supported by most political blocs," he said, adding that "the chances of the other two candidates, Ali Shukri and Mohammed Tawfiq Allawi, have been diminished in the past few hours."

Baghdad- Iraq today: A close associate of Sadr's leader Muqtada al-Sadr, Saleh Mohammed al-Iraqi, commented today on the publication of a person who criticized Tasinem Mohammed Allawi for the presidency of the government
Saleh al-Iraqi replied in a Facebook post that "the equation that you claim, rebel, is: (a) does not agree with (b) and (c) tries to procrastinate and wants to drag Iraq into chaos, strife and civil war."
"As we had a pause before your stand and as we supported you, they will not get an effort to deliver those who do not conform to the whims of the blocs, but in accordance with what the people want from a government that performs its temporary duties, especially early elections and other important details, and will only preserve Iraq's integrity, prestige and sovereignty," he said.
"You want a homeland, we are obliged to save the country from the hands of corruption on the one hand and the hands of the saboteurs on the one hand, and even to save you from the mandas who have taken root in your revolution and from all corrupt people so that we can judge all those who have offended the homeland," Saleh al-Iraqi said. "There is no homeland with the Mandisin, no homeland with the corrupt, no homeland with the occupiers, no homeland with the followers."
He said: Understand to a word between us and you that we should not worship but God and love only the homeland and that we preserve Iraq with all reason and wisdom, or else we will lose what we want: (the homeland).
