Censored Story Of The Week: All Sunnis Return To Iraq Parliament

The MSM functions pretty much exclusively as a Leftist propaganda so you probably hadn’t heard that one by one, all the Sunni political blocs that had left the government in a paralyzing boycott, returned this week. A very big development, but one that is good for our troops and the war effort, so you were kept from hearing about it. It was there if you looked really, really hard, but buried beneath bad news designed to trick the American people into believing that defeat was unavoidable in Iraq. Today, the AP buried their version at the bottom of a meaningless release about an insignificant suicide bombing.

From Iraq media and othe agencies:

The National Dialogue Front led by Sunni Arab politician Saleh al-Mutlak said in a statement its 11 MPs had returned to the 275-seat legislature on Saturday after its demands were met.

“The government has agreed to allocate funds to displaced families… and it has agreed to delay negotiations on the oil law until after Ramadan,” it said, referring to the Muslim fasting month due to begin next week.

“We are therefore today heeding the call of the Speaker to end our boycott.”

The Sunni bloc was the last of several boycotting groups to return to the assembly.

The return of the bloc boosts the embattled assembly as it prepares to tackle key legislation such as the controversial oil law the US sees as benchmarks to measure Iraq’s progress towards national unity.

The National Dialogue Front led by Sunni Arab politician Saleh al-Mutlak said in a statement its 11 MPs had returned to the 275-seat legislature.

It said its demands — that money be allocated to resettling Iraq’s millions of displaced people and more time be given for all parties to discuss the oil law — had been met.

“The government has agreed to allocate funds to displaced families… and it has agreed to delay negotations on the oil law until after Ramadan,” it said, referring to the Muslim fasting month due to begin next week.

Parliament which resumed last Tuesday is due in the coming months to review two critical pieces of legislation — one which will allow members of Saddam Hussein’s Baath party back into positions of authority, the other which will determine how Iraq’s oil revenues should be shared.

Washington sees resolution of the Baath party issue and the passage of the oil law as benchmarks to measure Iraq’s progress towards political reconciliation.

    You know Pat, America reminds me of the tortoise sometimes. The world sees us as “fast-unruly-uncouth-yaddayadda”. I see us as that turtle. We try. Sometimes, we don’t bother. We fuck up. We do things magnificently. We do things half-assed. You name it.

    At the end of the day though, we just plain, flat-assed, outright fucking win!

    And the rest of the world can only wallow in our drippings.

    You don’t eat oil. Ramadan means fast from food during the day. What the fuck does oil have to do with Ramadan? I’m not a Muslim and even I know that. Full of more shit than a Christmas turkey.

    This is from Aljizz but a very interesting quote in the article caught my eye and caused a double take.

    http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/BDB5CA15-691E-4D4C-8FE9-53E6E5CC72BD.htm

    “Speaking from Amman, Jordan, the Iraqi National Dialogue Front’s Saleh al-Mutlaq told Al Jazeera that al-Maliki’s government would not be able solve the country’s problems.

    “We need reconciliation, and this government cannot make reconciliation. We need a liberal government and this government is not liberal one, we need a secular government,” he said.

    “Without such a government the violence will continue.”"

    “Liberal, Secular” government that is one hell of a quote. Sounds like even the Sunni’s are finally starting to wake up and smell the Jihad.
