Al-Fateh Warns Of American Moves To Assassinate Military And Political Leaders
On Saturday, the Al-Fateh Alliance expressed its astonishment at the procrastination in revealing the facts regarding the bombing of the home of Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi, warning against American moves to assassinate Iraqi military and political leaders.
A member of the coalition, Muhammad al-Baldawi, said in a statement to the “Information” agency, that “it is shameful that the government accuses Iraqi parties who have proven their loyalty to the country in the ISIS war, and leaves the real accused taking advantage of the circumstances to shuffle the papers.”
He pointed out that “it is assumed that the green atmosphere is secured by the American CERAM system, in addition to their continuous flight in Iraqi airspace day and night, and therefore the US forces are the first and last suspect.”
He pointed out that “all the military and political leaders are exposed to the American forces, which poses an imminent danger to them and the possibility of targeting their lives and throwing charges against the factions and the popular crowd.” link

Economist: Iraq Needs The Oil Price To Stay At $85 For This Reason
The economist, Ali Al-Afandi, stressed, on Sunday, that achieving balance in the Iraqi economy needs to stabilize the oil price at 85 dollars per barrel.
Al-Affandi said, in a statement to the “Information” agency, that “the fact that prices remain at this point and that they do not decrease or rise will enable the government to restore recovery to its treasury, and thus it is possible to dispense with external borrowing, develop internal industries, and pay its internal loans.”
He pointed out that “the rise in the price of oil to $90 or $100 will greatly harm oil prices because it will activate the production of American shale oil, which may be competitive with Arab oil, and therefore Iraq will be the first affected by this matter, because its share will be reduced to less than one and a half million barrels per day.”
He pointed out that “the rise in prices to this level must be invested, especially with the great oil discovery in Dhi Qar, in which more than one oil well appeared until last night,” noting that “the Ministry of Oil has to demand “OPEC” to raise Iraq’s percentage in the quantities of exported oil, taking into account due to his economic conditions.” link
