The security expert, Safaa Al-Asam, confirmed, on Monday, the results of the investigation into the incident targeting the Prime Minister’s house, which will not be announced to public opinion, accusing an influential international party behind this alleged targeting attempt.
Al-Asam said in a statement to “Al-Mawara”, that “the process of targeting the house of the outgoing Prime Minister, Mustafa Al-Kazemi, was behind it by an influential international party, because the operation was carried out according to a modern plan and technology, and for the first time in which drones were used at a very low and low level.”
He added that “the committee in charge of the investigation will not be allowed to reveal the results to the public opinion, and it will remain secret because it is very dangerous and ambiguous because all the political blocs and even the resistance factions have condemned and denounced the incident,” noting that “the targeting side and the results of the investigation will remain confidential.”
Former MP Jassem Muhammad Jaafar revealed, in a previous statement to “Al-Maalouma”, that the office of the outgoing Prime Minister, Mustafa Al-Kazemi, “prevented” the investigative committee of the drone incident that “targeted” his house from entering the scene of the accident and taking criminal samples. almaalomah.me

Al-Khalidi said in an interview with “The Information”, “The indicators available to us confirm that Al-Kazemi does not have sufficient political support to renew his mandate a second time, especially since most forces are not with his assumption of power for the next stage, especially from the major mistakes during the past months in all files, including political and economic.”
He added, “The renewal of Al-Kazemi is difficult, rather impossible, in light of the rejection of most of the large political forces for this step, noting that Al-Kazemi did not succeed in his mission and his government committed many economic mistakes from which millions are currently groaning, especially raising the price of the dollar and pushing prices to levels that burdened 40% of the people.

butterfly Al-Kazemi: We will pursue those who committed yesterday’s crime.. We know them well and we will expose them
Posted, 2021-11-08 11:19 Al-Kazemi - We will pursue those who committed yesterdays crime.. We know them well and we will expose themShafaq News / The head of the caretaker government, Mustafa Al-Kazemi, threatened, on Sunday evening, the perpetrators of the assassination attempt at dawn today, by targeting his house with three booby-trapped drones, which no party has adopted until now, stressing that he knows them well and will expose them.
Al-Kazemi said while presiding over an extraordinary session of the Council of Ministers, “Last night, my house was attacked by targeting by drones directed at it directly, and this cowardly act is not worthy of the brave, and does not express the will of the Iraqis.”
“We will pursue those who committed yesterday’s crime, we know them well and we will expose them, and the hand of justice will reach the killers of the martyr Colonel Nibras Farman, an officer of the Iraqi National Intelligence Service,” he added.
Al-Kazemi added that his government prevented “Iraq from slipping into a regional war, and we were able to cross the country to safety, but there are those who are trying to tamper with Iraq’s security and want it to be a gang state, and we want to build a state.”
The caretaker prime minister reiterated the government’s success in “meeting the demand of the people, the reference and the demonstrators to hold early elections, and to provide everything the commission requested,” pointing out that “the results of the elections, complaints and appeals are not within the government’s competence, but the government’s duty focused on providing financial and security matters.” to conduct elections.

butterfly Al-Kazemi’s assassination attempt: The moment of the decision to dissolve the popular crowd is approaching
11-8-2021 Al-Kazemis assassination attempt - The moment of the decision to dissolve the popular crowd is approachingThe pro-Iranian militias in Iraq, with their failed assassination attempt against Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kadhimi, lost all chances of being accepted as part of the next government. Al-Kazemi realized, if he remained at the head of the government, that the chances of bargaining with the state groups no longer had a place and that he was lenient with them enough that they almost killed him.
On Iran’s condemnation of the attempt, people close to Al-Kazemi said that Iran condemned the failed attempt because it failed; The drones are Iranian, the militias launched by them are Iranian, and the execution orders are Iranian, but the condemnation is the same as Iranian “piety.”
Iraqi political circles said that the leaders of the state groups were waiting for the success of the assassination attempt on the night of the execution, while they were preparing to issue memorial statements praising Al-Kazemi’s virtues and considering him a national hero. This is despite the fact that some of them made public threats to kill him. However, they were shocked by the failure of the attempt, and they denounced it, as did Iran.
It is believed in Iraq that the next target is Muqtada al-Sadr, the leader of the “Sadr movement” who made progress in the elections at the expense of the rest of the other Shiite parties.
The Houthi scenario is one of the plans that the Shiite militias are considering to storm the Green Zone and impose a fait accompli
Sadr’s rivals say that his current will disappear with his disappearance, returning them to “the forefront of the Shiite scene.”
butterfly Since taking power, Al-Kazemi has tried to appease the Popular Mobilization militias and refrained from confronting their violations, beyond verbal calls to impose respect for the sovereignty of the state, and participated in its most recent military parades in Diyala, but he almost paid with his life for his hesitant stance towards these militias.
The state groups fear losing influence if they move away from power, and fear the exposure of corruption and violations, which could put their leaders under the law, especially since some of them do not hesitate to admit their responsibility for committing acts of terrorism.
Observers say that the failed assassination attempt is supposed to put an end to the survival of these groups as an anomaly armed force, threatening and committing crimes and serving Iran’s agenda, while receiving funds from the Iraqi government.
A high-ranking Iraqi security official considered that targeting Al-Kazemi’s house by a drone was a risk with all the remaining assets owned by the militias, in the hope of changing the course of events taking place in a way that is not in their favor.
In a statement to Al-Arab, the official said, “The state militias and a number of party leaders are at a crossroads; Either they have a position in the new government that maintains their presence, or they activate pre-prepared scenarios to confuse the situation.”
He suggested that the Houthi scenario is one of the plans that the Shiite militias are considering to storm the Green Zone and impose a fait accompli, when they lose other options to remain as the dominant forces within the state.
butterfly The source stressed that the forces of the Counter-Terrorism Service, headed by Lieutenant-General Abdul-Wahhab Al-Saadi, are ready to confront any potential dangers threatening the political process.
The security official ruled out any possible confrontation between government security forces and militias, but stressed their readiness for any emergency.

Senior militia leaders in the PMF fear that the formation of the new government will end their presence as the controlling force of the so-called deep state. Senior militia officials also fear that files of kidnappings, killings and corruption will eventually be opened, which will eventually lead them to judicial conviction and sentencing.
And the “Al-Fateh” list, which includes the largest Shiite militias headed by Hadi al-Amiri, supported by the leader of the state of law Nuri al-Maliki, is pushing for pressure on the Sadrist movement to form a joint government.
Al-Maliki, al-Amiri and senior militia leaders believe that their mere marginalization in the new government means their political end, stressing that they are ready to face any other situation that does not preserve their influence in the next government.
An Iraqi parliamentarian who won the recent elections – who preferred not to be named – described targeting Al-Kazemi’s house as a clear indication that the armed factions are ready to reach the maximum possible escalation in order to obtain the chairs that the new election law has deprived them of and the strength of organizing the competing forces.
In a statement to Al-Arab, the parliamentarian expressed his belief that Iraq is on the verge of armed clashes, the first party being the government and the Sadrist movement’s “Peace Brigades,” and the second party being the Iranian-backed armed factions.
butterfly And he said, “The armed factions’ fear of the Sadr-Al-Kazemi alliance and Lieutenant-General Ahmed Aborgev – head of the Supreme Committee for Investigation of Major Corruption Cases – may eventually lead to the hanging of the gallows for some militia leaders in Tahrir Square, which will push them to persist in accepting them as a partner in any future government. He gave her political positions in exchange for the parliamentary seats she lost.” rawabetcenter.com
Butterfly A security source refutes the version of the number of planes and confirms: Al-Kazemi’s injury was fabricated
2021-11-08 A security source refutes the version of the number of planes and confirms - Al-Kazemis injury was fabricatedOn Monday, a high-ranking security source refuted the government’s account of the presence of three planes in the operation to strike the home of Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi,
He pointed out that the US embassy has the ability to detect any foreign object in Baghdad in general, and green in particular, because it has a self-operating defense system.
The source, who preferred not to be identified, said, “Al-Kazemi is not in his house during the bombing, and the injury in his hand is fabricated and untrue, and that one plane was hovering in the green sky for three minutes, dropped its cargo and went.”
And he indicated that “there are no three drones, but one plane that flew in the sky of Baghdad and dropped its cargo,” asking “where are the planes that fell or were bombed near the Tigris River,” stressing that Al-Kazemi was not present in the place that was targeted.
He added, “The lack of pictures of planes and only pictures of missiles is evidence that the assassination attempt was fabricated,” indicating that “one plane was bombed and there is no truth to Al-Kazemi’s injury.” burathanews.com
