From One Crisis to a Deeper One: Inside the Coordinating Framework Meeting Last Night ⸻ Nouri al-Maliki: Attempt to Contain Influence Behind closed doors, the Coordinating Framework held a meeting last night, dominated by power and influence. Nouri al-Maliki and his bloc were not enthusiastic, yet the session proceeded, signaling that hidden messages mattered more than formal debate. Maliki proposed alternatives to himself, Tariq Najm and Abdel-Ilah al-Naily, but the response was firm: he does not have the authority to nominate in this way, and his candidacy—or silence—was only a political courtesy. ⸻ Maliki’s Red Lines Before withdrawing, Maliki set a condition: he would step back only if Mohammed Shia’ al-Sudani and Haider al-Abadi were not nominated. This “red line” preserved his influence and prevented any side from dominating government posts. ⸻ The Iraq and U.S. Future Gained by Refusing al-Sudani’s Return Refusing al-Sudani a second term protects Iraq and U.S. interests. Over the last three years, he enriched himself, his allies, and businessmen, while funneling resources to Iranian-backed militias and the Revolutionary Guard, using his network as a cover. Publicly aligned with the U.S., privately consolidating Iranian influence, al-Sudani’s return would have deepened external control over Iraq. ⸻ Framework Divisions: Two Rival Blocs The meeting exposed deep divisions: one bloc led by Maliki and his faction, versus another including Qais al-Khazali, Haider al-Abadi, Ammar al-Hakim, Mohammed Shia’ al-Sudani, Hadi al-Amiri, and others. Each side seeks to consolidate influence, leaving government formation hostage to months-long disputes. ⸻ The Ashab al-Haq Maneuver: Preemptive Move for the Premiership Amid the split, Asa’ib Ahl al-Haq put forward Bassem al-Badri, extending the government’s corruption and waste. Al-Badri has stalled Accountability and Justice Commission cases for Ba’ath Party members, applying a double standard: pay for immunity, fail to pay, face harsh measures. His candidacy secures faction influence and anticipates international pushback. ⸻ Where is America? The Major Paradox The U.S. has clearly rejected any armed-faction participation in the next government. This leaves the Framework balancing domestic ambitions against strong international opposition. ⸻ Laylat al-Qadr: The Next Meeting The next Framework meeting is planned for Laylat al-Qadr to finalize the premiership decision, highlighting high-stakes calculations under a veil of religious symbolism. #المحطة_1 #القادم_صادم
