Asked the leaders of the blocs year of Mr. Haider Abadi, binding guarantees the implementation of the long list of demands that must be adhered to after the receipt of his constitutional duties, as a condition for their entry in the new government.
Bottom line to this article.....Abadi is holding strong to his belief that the political process is based on the Constitution and does not require or seek the terms, warranties, demands, or threats of anyone....IMO....Abadi has done remarkably well in fending off all the suggestions, demands, bribes and what have you that have been pitched in his direction over the past 10 days to 2 weeks.....he should be proud that he hasn't knuckled under to anyone's demands.

Maliki's bloc is now "demanding" a Vice President position in Parliament for one of their own....more and more "demands".....doesn't say much for integrity in my book if they have to demand, or feel they must demand....one would think that if Abadi came from the National Alliance bloc...that he should be replaced by a member of that bloc....not necessarily from the Dawa Party
