Millionday: An influential Shiite cleric threatened Wednesday to attack US interests in Iraq and abroad over a congressional provision to send arms directly to Sunni and Kurdish fighters.

The proposed measure in the House Republicans' defense authorization bill for next year would distribute a quarter of the $715 million authorized to train and equip the Iraqi army outside the government's control.
Millionday: NOTE -- THIS IS SADR THAT WE HAVE NOT HEARD FROM IN A WHILE
Millionday: NOTE -- SO THE US IS TRYING TO HELP IRAQ BY PRIVATELY TRAINING THEIR MILITARY
Millionday: It's unclear if the provision will survive the months-long legislative process.

"In the event of approving this bill by the US Congress, we will find ourselves obliged to unfreeze the military wing and start targeting the American interests in Iraq — even abroad, which is doable," said the statement on Muqtada al-Sadr's website.
Millionday: NOTE -- THIS IS OBVIOUSLY VERY CLOSE TO A THREAT BY THE WAY IT READS –
Millionday: In a rare turn of events, both al-Sadr and President Barack Obama signaled their opposition to the provision by House Republicans. Proposing to give 25 percent of the funds directly to the Kurdish peshmerga and Sunni forces is one of several provisions in the military policy measure that the White House said on Tuesday that the president opposes.

The statement from al-Sadr underscored how closely the Shiite cleric is following the lengthy, often arcane legislative process. The release of the House GOP version of the bill on Monday was just the first step, and it got barely any notice outside of the Pentagon and Congress.

The statement from al-Sadr underscored how closely the Shiite cleric is following the lengthy, often arcane legislative process. The release of the House GOP version of the bill on Monday was just the first step, and it got barely any notice outside of the Pentagon and Congress.
Millionday: But it clearly registered in Baghdad.

Al-Sadr's militia, the Mahdi Army, was one of the most determined opponents of the US military between 2003 and 2011, but it went dormant after the pullout.

The Iraqi government has also rejected the provision.

"Any weapons supplying will be done only through the Iraqi government," it said. "The draft law proposed by the foreign affairs committee in the U.S. Congress is rejected and it will lead to more division in the region and we urge it be stopped."
Millionday: NOTE -- EXACTLY -- THIS IS VERY STRANGE TO SAY THE LEAST
Millionday: The United States has already spent billions arming and training the Iraqi military, but it performed poorly last year when Islamic State militants swept across western and northern Iraq, routing four divisions.

Some of the most effective fighters against the Islamic State have been the Kurdish peshmerga, but they say the government has not given them enough arms.

Iraq's Shiite-dominated government has also been reluctant to arm Sunni tribes, which were key to defeating al-Qaida in Iraq several years earlier.
Millionday: On Wednesday, the House Armed Services Committee is considering the defense authorization bill, one of the few bipartisan measures in Congress.

While the specific provision might not withstand the debate process, the defense authorization bill has become law for more than half a century.
Millionday: SO AS WE SEE -- THIS IS GOING TO CREATE A PROBLEM IT WOULD SEEM SO WE WIL WATCH FOR ANYTHING MORE ON THIS

Millionday: Iraqi Kurdish President Masoud Barzani will discuss Kurdish independence among other regional and security issues with US officials in an upcoming trip to the US, according to statements by Fuad Hussein, the chief of staff to the presidency of the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG).
Millionday: NOTE -- REMEMEBR THAT THIS IS A GOAL OF KURDISTAN BUT IS NOT A GOAL FOR TOMORROW -- THIS IS SOMETHING THEY WOULD LIKE TO PUT IN THE WORKS -- WE HAVE ALOT TO DISCUSS AND LOOK AT ABOUT THIS AND THE REFORMS ETC
Millionday: Barzani is expected to meet with US President Barack Obama and top American officials next week to discuss the latest security developments in the Kurdistan Region, the role of Peshmerga forces in the impending military campaign against the so-called Islamic State in Mosul and the issue of Kurdish independence, Hussein told Rudaw Wednesday.
Millionday: NOTE -- THE VISIT TO MEET WITH OBAMA WAS EXPECTED SOONER THAN THIS BUT HERE IT IS FINALLY AND FOR NEXT WEEK
Millionday: “The issue is not something new. The president has previously sent Barack Obama a letter, which was focused on regional security issues as well as the issue of Kurdish independence,” Hussein told Rudaw. “Surely he will discuss Kurdish independence during his official visit to the United States.”
Barzani reportedly argued the case for Kurdish independence with Kurdish political parties in their last local meeting.
Millionday: This will be Barzani’s fourth visit to the United States. In his previous visits he called on the US to remove the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) and Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP)—both major Iraqi Kurdish political parties—from the United States’ terror list.
Millionday: SO OBVIOUSLY THEY ARE HOPING TO MAKE SOME CHANGES IN HOW KURDISTAN AS A WHOLE ARE VIEWED CURRENLY
……………………………………………..
Millionday: THIS WAS SENT TO ME BY ONE OF OUR GREAT MEMBERS
Millionday: The Iraqi government announced, on Wednesday, its rejection of the proposed bill in the US Congress on dealing with the Kurds and Sunnis in Iraq as a "two states", and considered as it would lead to further divisions in the region, called for him not to go. 

Information Office of the Prime Minister, said Haider al-Abadi said in a statement seen by Alsumaria News, that "at a time when the Iraqi government welcomes the efforts of all countries that stand by Iraq in its war against gangs Daash terrorist and give him military aid,
Millionday: we assure everyone that dealing with the Iraqi government It was still unclear with respect for Iraqi sovereignty, which is set by the government within the maxims and ongoing assurances in talks with these countries. "
Millionday: NOTE -- REMEMBER THAT IRAQ IS IN THE PROCESS OF PREPARING FOR THE SWF---(SOVEREIGN WEALTH FUND) THAT IS SET UP WITH THE IMF

Millionday: He added that "there is no double dealing with the government by external parties and emphasize that any arming will be only through the Iraqi government, according to the plans set by the military." 

He explained Abadi office, "The government confirms that Iraq with all its components and Okulaiath facing gangs Daash terrorist, and facts have proved that all these components continue
Millionday: to fight for the liberation of all the lands of Daash and re-displaced people to their areas and the restoration of normal life in light of the government jointly by everyone in the remodeled" . 

He pointed out that the Office Abadi "There are many victories have been achieved thanks to the cohesion and we are moving Bmarkina fair to liberate every inch of the land of Iraq."
Millionday: NOTE -- ABADI IS STATING THAT IRAQ IS WORKING TO GIVE EVERYONE A NORMAL LIFE IN IRAQ AND THIS INCLUDES THE KURDISTAN REGION -- THIS WILL BE WITH A TRANSFER OF POWERS THAT WILL STATISFY SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT CONCERN KURDISTAN --- SO RESTORING SHOULD REMAIN WHERE THEIR ATTENTION IS AT THIS POINT IMO ---
Millionday: He continued that "the proposed draft law in the Foreign Relations Committee in the US Congress rejected and lead to further divisions in the region", calling for "not to proceed with it." 

It is scheduled to vote in the Foreign Affairs Committee in the US Congress, on Wednesday, a bill that deals with the "Peshmerga armed Sunni factions in Iraq Kpldan", in order to provide US aid directly to the parties.
Millionday: NOTE -- THIS IS ALL TO MINIMIZE THE HARDSHIP FOR FORCES IN ORDER TO AVOID THE TIME IT WOULD TAKE FOR THIS APPROVAL IN IRAQ GOV IMO
Millionday: The US Embassy in Baghdad confirmed, today, that the United States policy toward Iraq has not changed, and with their support and expressed its support for a unified Iraq, pointed out that the draft submitted to the US House of Representatives is not based on any laws, and does not reflect the positions of political and America.
Millionday: SO THIS ENTIRE ISSUE THAT NEEDS RESOLVED IS NOT ONLY CAUSING ISSUES BUT IS ALSO TAKING UP TIME THAT THEY DONT HAVE TO GIVE –
Millionday: THE DRAFT LAW IS NOT EVEN A LEGAL ONE SO THE FEAR THAT THIS ISSUE IS GOING TO STOP IRAQ`S REFORMS IN THEIR TRACKS ARE PROBABLY NOT BACKED BY ANYTHING BUT HOT AIR – IMO

The group overran a third of the country last summer and control territory in Iraq and Syria.
Millionday: NOTE -- REMEMBER THAT OIL IS UP TO 65$ A BARREL NOW -- THIS IS THE HIGHEST SINCE 2014 IF I REMEMBER RIGHT
The group overran a third of the country last summer and control territory in Iraq and Syria.
Millionday: “There are areas that the government liberated from Daesh (Islamic State) but it suffers from a lack of infrastructure, education and health (services). So I will try to see if we can help by financing projects to improve life in these areas,” Ghanem said in an interview in Lebanon.
