The
demonstrations of the Iraqi people against the corruption of the regime and subordination to Iran came as a strong storm against the leader of the Iranian regime, Ali Khamenei, who is trying with all force to eliminate those demonstrations that threaten his presence in Iraq.
Therefore, Iran hastily summoned the Sadrist leader, Muqtada al-Sadr, to make understandings aimed at making the Iranian plan to end the demonstrations in Iraq a success.
A close associate of the leadership committee in the popular crowd said, Iran informed the leaders of the crowd not to friction with the demonstrators, and avoided rough dealing with them, and turned a blind eye to the abuse of the images of the Iranian leader Ali Khamenei and the commander of the Quds Force Qassem Soleimani by the angry demonstrators.
Informed sources stated that the Iranian plan includes three main axes: The
first: neutralizing Muqtada al-Sadr and removing his followers from the pretending arenas in preparation for weakening them, and raising the ceiling on security protection from them.
The second: Preventing the militias associated with Iran from engaging with the demonstrators and inflicting heavy losses on their ranks, for fear of internationalizing the crisis and its exit from the control of Iran and the Iraqi government together.
The third: To satisfy the Shiite authority Ali Sistani, who has hinted that the popular crowd has been removed from contact with the demonstrators, and to persuade him that there is no practical intervention of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard in
Iraq to neutralize its position and lift its support from the demonstrations!
Within the framework of implementing the Iranian plan, the leader of Asaib al-Haq retreated from the Iranian accusations of the protesters in connection with foreign agendas.
Qais Khazali, leader of the Iranian-backed Asaib Ahl al-Haqq party, said that 99 percent of the protesters are not linked to foreign agendas and goals, stressing that the formation of an independent election commission in light of the party's dominance seems like a lie that no one believes.
The parties and forces loyal to Iran have ignored the change of the name of a street in Basra that used to bear the name Khomeini and its name, the street of the martyrs of the October Revolution. This ignorance may come within the framework of Iran's soft policy towards demonstrations.
Sources in the Legal Committee in Parliament expect that the specialized committees will begin the first steps to transform the political system in
Iraq from Parliament to President.
The head of the Al-Fateh coalition, which is close to Iran, Hadi al-Amiri, had announced that the parliamentary system was no longer suitable for Iraq, but had proven a failure, and it was time to replace it.
And the forces loyal to Iran are seeking to market a personality from among its ranks and promote it as a candidate for the presidency of Iraq, despite the prior refusal by the Iraqi street of any candidate presented by the ruling parties regardless of his qualifications and backgrounds.
