The U.S Administration should know that changing faces will not bring calm and stability in Iraq. From Chilabi to Maliki , we saw many person. But they badly failed in their jobs. They all ignored and tried to Suppress the Sunnis. The situation in Iraq will not calm down unless Shias share power with Sunnis.
Sen. John McCain has asked Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki to sever his relationship with the radical young Shia cleric Moqtada Sadr.His demand is preposterous. How can Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki take action against his coalition partner? If he  breaks relationship with the radical young Shia cleric Moqtada Sadr his government will fall.

The question now is how things got out of  control. Why Americans want to sideline the radical young Shia cleric Moqtada Sadr? He holds 30 seats in the parliament , as well as cabinet several cabinet posts – thanks to much-touted ‘democratic” elections.

The U.S. Administration says Moqtada al-Sadr is responsible for much of the violence in Iraq, including a mob killing of a pro-American Shi’ite cleric in 2004.

Nir Rosen, a Middle East expert at the New American Foundation in Washington says,”Moqtada’s movement began as a reaction to the U.S. occupation [of Iraq] and its leadership. And they [al-Sadr’s followers] don’t have a real agenda yet, except for being against things.”

The question arises as to why Americans then allowed his followers to take part in the election. What has restrained them from taking action against Moqtada al-Sadr’s Mahdi Army so far?

The USA Today Today reported in October, 2006, the asked for Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki support for a major assault on the Shiite militia. But he rejected US plans to launch large-scale operations
in Sadr City, a Baghdad slum and stronghold” of Sadr’s Mahdi
Army.

Now we are getting reports that Iraqi politicians are trying to form a new alliance designed to isolate the radical young Shia cleric Moqtada Sadr. It is said that this coalition would include the Sunnis, Kurds and Shias.

This time American are enlisting the support of Shiite leader Ayatollah Abdul Aziz Hakim, head of the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI) and its attendant Badr Brigade militia.

The U.S Administration should know that changing faces will not bring calm and stability in Iraq. From Chilabi to Maliki , we saw many person. But they badly failed in their jobs. They all ignored and tried to Suppress the Sunnis. The situation in Iraq will not calm down unless Shias share power with Sunnis.

Parliamentarian Mahmoud Othman  was right in saying ,”Leaders from both sides are trading accusations against each other.There have been no meetings between them for [a long time now]. How do you expect reconciliation at a national level when it does not exist
between them?”
