Allawi suspends IGC membership
2004-04-10
Governing Council (IGC) member Iyad Allawi on Friday suspended his membership in the council and resigned from the IGC's security committee. Security sources told KUNA Allawi, suspended his membership in the council and resigned from his post as president of the IGC's security committee upon a decision by the National Wifaq Movement. Allawi is the secretary general of the movement, which also announced withdrawal from all Iraqi ministries and departments. The sources said the movement will release a statement Saturday about the reasons for the decision.
Guess we know which side he's on...

#2  Whoever the "National Wifaq Movement" is, we need to offer this seat to their opposition, just to make clear that you either support the IGC, or don't.

#1  This is, actually, rather astounding. In publicly declaring himself in this manner, he forfeits the standard Arab option of utter duplicity - actual text of the NWM's "announcement" notwithstanding. The most he can do now is be smarmy and disingenuous - and, at best, only partially successful as a back-stabbing pro-chaos fucktard. This might just put him in the running for the Nobel Peace Prize, Most Honest Arab Division.

Jaw, meet Floor.
