In addition, the idea of forming an advisory council of Anbari tribal sheikhs is an effective and influential means in the long run for consolidating the views of the tribes, curbing potentially disruptive individual actions and providing tribal leaders, who have thousands of supporters, the political space they need to express their grievances and ideas within a structure that advises the local government.
To ensure long-term social order and consolidate national unity, Hakim’s initiative also proposes creating a clear plan to address the demands raised during the Sunni protests. As evident from the ongoing crisis in Anbar, groups employing terrorism continue to use the strained relations between the Sunni cities and Baghdad as a springboard for expanding their presence in the country.
Hakim's initiative also advocates avoiding additional security-related tensions by allowing the region’s people and tribes to manage their own security by means of a properly trained and equipped local police force.
A combination of security and political measures are necessary at this stage to resolve the Anbar crisis. The political solution should not follow the security solution, nor vice versa. The two must be implemented at the same time, or Iraq will be unable to fight terrorism in a strong and united way.
al-Hakim seems to have the respect from many political parties in Irak from kurdish to sunni parties and of course some shia as well. Things which are the opposite for the current government.
I sincerely hope that al-Hakim candidate for Prime Minister and end the nightmare Iraq has now. He has a fair chance to get people in Iraq to listen to him and he is not offensive against any Iraqui nor companies or business and he has a chance to cope with the corruption all Iraq is suffering so much from.
