"Abd al-Zaidi, leader of the wisdom movement led by Ammar al-Hakim, on Saturday, some call for the formation of an emergency government is a" coup against the Constitution. "

"We have been hearing these claims since 2003 and so far after every election or political failure," Zaidi told Arab media.

Vice President Iyad Allawi on Thursday issued a clarification on his call for a national rescue government.

"The emergency governments and the governments of coups and national rescue were in the fifties and sixties of the last century, and went on time and ended."

He pointed out that "today we live the time of democracy and the ballot boxes and the will of the people."

He continued that "the word national rescue or the emergency government, there is no presence in the Iraqi constitution, which spoke of elections resulted in winning parties to form a government."

In a special session held on June 6, the federal parliament passed a third amendment to the election law, which included the imposition of manual counting and counting in all of Iraq, and the cancellation of the results of the electronic vote, including even the canceled funds. Under the new law, elections were completely canceled, and the elections for displaced persons and conditional voting were canceled.

The Shiite cleric, Ali al-Sistani, in Friday sermon in a written speech by Abdul Mahdi al-Karbalai to speed the formation of the Iraqi government, on condition that the president is firm and strong, and meet the demands of citizens urgently.

He warned against changing the way peaceful demonstrations impose their will on officials. "Then the scene will have another face that we regret before it is too late," he said.

The demonstrations began in the city of Basra in early July, to demand better services, such as electricity and water, and to develop solutions to the deterioration of living conditions in the city, rich in oil.

The protest spread quickly and took a violent turn and reached Nasiriyah, Diwaniyah and Karbala in the south. It spread to the capital Baghdad a few days ago. Security forces confronted the demonstrators by force. Sufis were killed and dozens of people were wounded, including security forces.

Thousands demonstrated Friday in several areas of Iraq, including Baghdad, where security forces used water cannons and tear gas to disperse the demonstrators after they tried to go to the Green Zone, where the seat of government and parliament.

Since Monday, an atmosphere of cautious calm has prevailed in the provinces and cities of southern Iraq, with a week-long deadline set by tribal sheikhs for the government to take effect.

The cities of southern Iraq have suffered from neglect throughout successive Iraqi governments, despite the oil wealth they enjoy, especially the city of Basra, which is witnessing an unprecedented deterioration in services.
