They accuse him of ruling for the Shi'ite majority at the expense of the Sunni and Kurdish minorities.<br />Maliki said last week that he hoped to overcome the challenges blocking the formation of a new government after the new parliament's first session ended without agreement on the top posts of prime minister, president and parliament speaker.<br /><br />The Iraqi military, backed by Shi'ite militias and volunteers, has yet to take back any major cities but is trying to advance on Tikrit, the late dictator Saddam Hussein's hometown in Salahuddin province.<br />The fighting is taking a heavy toll. The United Nations said last week more than 2,400 Iraqis had been killed in June alone, making the month by far the deadliest since the height of sectarian warfare during the U.S. "surge" offensive in 2007.<br /><br />A senior Iraqi general was killed in fighting with insurgents close to Baghdad on Monday, as the army fights to hold militants back from the capital.<br /><br />Major General Negm Abdullah Ali, commander of the army's sixth division, responsible for defending part of Baghdad, was killed just 16 km (10 miles) northwest of the capital.<br /><br />A few hours later, four policemen and three civilians were killed when a suicide bomber drove a minivan packed with explosives into a checkpoint in the mainly Shi'ite Kadhimiya district of northern Baghdad.<br /><br />Top U.S. defence officials, who have deployed advisers to the region to assess the state of the Iraqi military, said last week the security forces were able to defend the capital but would have difficulty going on the offensive to recapture lost territory, mainly because of logistic weaknesses.<br />In the northeastern province of Diyala, where insurgents have been clashing with security forces, Shi'ite militias and volunteers for several weeks, Islamic State militants killed four civilians in the town of Udaim, a police officer said.<br /> (cont.)<br /><br />reuters.com<br />DarkPurpleHazehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06725074790604681185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708908742323002823.post-24599429165098042592014-07-07T11:38:12.270-07:002014-07-07T11:38:12.270-07:00Wheat getting obliterated, gasoline futures in fre...Wheat getting obliterated, gasoline futures in freefall, once again, the "Resilient Consumer" is off the hook and will have more free spending cash flow.<br /><br />Ergo, institutions are buying profiteering grains processors like ADM, and gulping down consumer stocks such as COH and KORS.<br /><br />John "Big Mac" Williams at shadowstats must be sweating profusely at the computer screen wondering what the heck he is going to write about next.<br /><br />LOL...Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13068811838777958318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708908742323002823.post-61784238102130762192014-07-07T10:16:46.745-07:002014-07-07T10:16:46.745-07:00Dan, no question most commods very heavy; Other th...Dan, no question most commods very heavy; Other than meats and stks we want to be sellers on rallies; all you gotta do is go to my favorite PM site and read their takes on the $, Stocks worldwide, % rates worldwide, MENA developments, the greatness of Putin and yayayayayadeyde, in other words, let's talk about how screwed up everything is so we do not have to talk about a disappointing gold and silver mkt; sparks and nothing here to seeAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15820220635483947518noreply@blogger.com
