Does Sistani have a role in the problems of Iraq?
Publication date: Monday 09 December 2019 KSA 00:10 - GMT 21:10
Religious authority Ali al-Sistani was in such a position before. Fifteen years ago, after the American invasion of Iraq toppled Saddam Hussein's regime, the supreme religious authority in the country helped to direct his people towards a representative government system, and now, after he has helped himself to Dropping the most recent version of that government, Sistani realizes that his followers are looking to him again, to seek political guidance, but he does not conclude that responsibility. Sistani, 89, represents the “Sufi” school in the Shi’ite school of thought, which holds that senior clerics should not engage In politics, and during most of his life, Sistani argued against the idea of«guardianship of the jurist E », or clerical rule, which Khomeini has supported since the 1979 revolution.
However, the difficult political circumstances in Baghdad may require Sistani to play a more active role than he desires.
Al-Sistani said: Iraq needs new elections and comprehensive constitutional reforms, but he was careful, and he was careful to avoid referring to certain changes. In his opinion, that was the task of the country's political class.
But here lies the biggest problem. The Iraqi politicians have not shown much interest in the change, and Sistani himself bears some responsibility for the imbalances that the country’s parliament has suffered, because every government since the fall of Saddam was receiving his blessing, and every prime minister is asking for his support and getting it, and the prime minister The last, Adel Abdul-Mahdi, a man with neither party nor voters, would not have been able to obtain the position, without Sistani's blessing.
Although Iraqis may reasonably blame Sistani for the incompetence and corruption of their political elite, they seem to tend to favor goodwill, at least given the integrity of the man and the prestige of his office, which is the highest in the Shiite doctrine, but the patience of the protesters who keep on Pressure on the government for weeks - defying bullets, tear gas and batons - could run out with Sistani, if he stays in his "comfortable area" on the sidelines.
In the political scene of Baghdad, which is characterized by chaos, competition and fighting, and where parties routinely use militias, for influence and influence, external forces in force in Iraq can summon a wide range of armed groups, and within this framework comes Hadi al-Amiri, who leads the Badr Organization », Which is a political party and a paramilitary party at the same time.
Al-Amery's only competitor to political power is the cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, who chose to position himself as an Iraqi patriot. Both men are Shi’ites, but Sadr’s national qualifications give him some support among the Sunni minority, who are suspicious of Amiri’s Iranian relations. He replaces his number with what he lacks in terms of firepower and discipline.
Politically, al-Sadr and al-Amiri were equal, and Sistani had previously avoided supporting either of them, influencing Abdul-Mahdi, as a consensual candidate, but it was a disastrous choice, because Abdul-Mahdi had neither the political savvy to run a divided parliament, nor the administrative skills to run the country.
Indeed, even if the parliament meets Sistani's call for constitutional reforms, Iraq will need a temporary leader, and thus, Sistani faces Khayari al-Sadr and al-Amiri again, and if the support of the leader of the "Badr Organization" would amount to placing Iraq under external control, What constitutes a betrayal of the aspirations of the protesters, and the fact is that although he is of non-Iraqi origin, Sistani was loyal to Iraq in word and deed.
But alignment with Sadr will not be acceptable for Sistani, too, because the young man cannot predict his actions, and, moreover, he has not presented any consistent vision of what Iraq should be, let alone a scheme to fix the country's political and economic problems, and there is no reason to believe He will be - or anyone from his own party - a good manager, especially in a period of national unrest.
Therefore, Sistani will most likely choose to wait, until another consensual candidate emerges, but this option may no longer be available now, because the protesters are not in a mood to accept a prolonged political process, and politicians with a good reputation are more likely to remain in Baghdad.

Baghdad: Fadel Al-Nashmi
Iraq witnessed yesterday an unprecedented wave of anger that resulted from the new massacre carried out, unknown groups, who are believed to belong to armed factions loyal to Iran, in the areas of Al-Sink and Al-Khilani, and dozens of dead and wounded, including three photojournalists.
Iraq also experienced growing feelings of fear that the country might descend into a wave of internal strife and new levels of violence, in light of the apparent inability of government forces to control the situation and stop the practices of unarmed armed factions, especially after targeting a drone plane that affected the home of the Sadrist leader Muqtada al-Sadr, in the Al-Hanana region, in Najaf Governorate
The accounts provided by the Iraqi authorities on the one hand, and the demonstrators on the other hand, about what happened in the two cells of al-Khilani, fell sharply, even with regard to the number of dead and wounded. While official sources reported that 4 people were killed and about twenty wounded, and another spoke of the killing of 7 members of the security forces, most of the accounts issued by the demonstrators confirm the killing of 23 and the injury of more than 100 protesters, at least.
With the exception of the talk of some official speakers about a "quarrel" that occurred between the demonstrators, and caused the fire of the al-Sink garage and the confrontations of the al-Sink and al-Khalani areas, no clarifications were issued by the Iraqi government agencies about what exactly happened, while the protest groups issued many accounts that match their general lines, even if they differ In some details.
The majority of those accounts agree about the planned plan implemented by armed factions in coordination and cooperation sometimes with the official authorities to influence the demonstration arenas and to break up the sit-ins, in the area between Tahrir Square and Al-Senak Bridge, and not to allow them to extend to the streets and proximity to the Central Bank of Iraq.
The protest groups also agree that the process of hitting the demonstrators was aimed at blocking the million-dollar demonstration planned by the protesters, during which all the protest activities in the rest of the uprising provinces will be held on the tenth of this month.
One of these accounts about the nature of what happened in Al-Sanak and Al-Khulani indicates that government agencies “collude” with armed factions, by deliberately cutting the electrical current in Al-Sanak Square and its garage, in preparation for the passage of the militants ’cars in front of the checkpoints without accountability or follow-up, despite the possession of the Ministry of Interior Cameras monitor the entrances and exits of all the capital's streets. While the Baghdad Operations Command blamed the demonstrators for their refusal to have the security forces near the sit-in areas, and implicitly held them responsible for what happened, protest groups say: "The failure of the security forces to intervene until the massacre ended and the withdrawal of all militants is evidence of a prior agreement between the two sides."
As for the activist Alaa Al-Baghdadi, he blamed the "Hezbollah Brigades" for the killings against the demonstrators, and ruled out the involvement of the other factions, "the Popular Mobilization" in what happened.
Al-Baghdadi, who is close to the Sadr movement, wrote on his Facebook page: "Two days ago, groups affiliated with (Hezbollah Brigades) entered the Tahrir Square under the pretext of defending the Marjaiya, and they held placards against America and Israel (and of course Saudi Arabia) and some signs defending On behalf of Mr. Sistani. He added that they «raised a banner reading‘ Al-Khal, which is the same sign that was hung on the front of the garage of the Senk, and the uncle is the coded term that is shared by individuals (Hezbollah Brigades) among them, and it symbolizes (Qasim Soleimani), and also they call it to their leaders. ”
Baghdad notes that "the (Khal) gangs stationed on the left of the nation's garden, near the street near Al-Bataween, and tried to erect some tents."
And he confirms that he made direct contacts with the "Peace Brigades" and some members of the "Hezbollah Brigades" to prevent a massacre, and indeed they were expelled from Tahrir Square peacefully. And he points out that the goal of the brigades "was to station and ditch in the square, as a first step to defection between the masses and to break and end the sit-in, after controlling the Turkish restaurant, the bridges of the Republic, Al-Sanak and Al-Ahrar."

They were shut down for a long time...7 hours...I had never seen it shut down for this long before...IMO the CBI is doing maintenance on their website...I believe they're doing something in relationship to their monetary reform...what you saw today was not a mistake. It was so loud it screamed across all of our teams...we're looking for anything new after the date that VP Mike Pence arrived in Iraq...
12-8-2019 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat The currency auctions breed corruption and is one of the many sources of massive corruption of all this oil money and wealth of Iraq. Many skeptics still say that there is going to be a lop ...this could not possibly be a lop and why this is the basis for us making millions if not billions off this as a long-term investment. ...Don’t buy into this investment if you are wimp and can’t stand the pain of the constant stream of good news then bad news from the Central Bank of Iraq. Since my initial investment in the dinar in 2006 I have learned so much. I would not still be here if I did not have total faith that someday this currency will revalue by having the OFAC sanctions lifted.

What happens to your head when your hair hurts?
December 8, 2019
The Independent ...
Most of the people live in a strange current situation in their daily lives, which is that their hair permanently hurts them, and the percentage of pain varies from person to person according to the length and density of hair, but have you ever asked yourself why your hair hurts you? The answer is simply that the pain you feel is not actually your hair; it is the scalp surrounding the hair follicles that it hurts.
According to hair experts, a person feels pain when dirt builds up around the opening of your follicles, which is usually caused by the use of creams and oils for the hair, as dirt begins to accumulate around the follicles to get to stifle the roots of your hair slowly, and causes inflammation, which makes people feel pain.
Women also style their hair with dry shampoo, which usually increases the possibility of damage and injury due to the difficulty of washing it later.
If you have encountered this problem, cosmetic experts advise using a shampoo that contains sulfates, and you must be careful if you suffer from pain in the scalp, then you must consider the amount of shampoo that you use.
"The longer the inflammation period lasts, the harder it will be to treat, and the affected person may need to consider rubbing the scalp for a complete reset," hair experts add.
