The Iraqi constitution will go to the people without an endorsement from
Parliament. The Sunni’s have rejected it do to issues involving federalism and
references to the Ba’ath Party. This will no doubt strike a serious blow to the
stabilization of the region.
The Sunni’s have called upon international help in order to reach a
compromise.
“We call upon the Arab League, the United Nations and international
organizations to intervene so that this document is not passed and so that
the clear defect in it is corrected”
Was the statement read by Abdul-Nasser al-Janabi, a Sunni spokesman.
The Sunni’s are the minority in Iraq and are a majority when it comes to the
insurgency. With the stalemate in the constitution, an increase in insurgent
attacks is sure to follow.
