ISCI was not clear of these conflicts, because it's a key partner and is still at the center of balance between the parties. This has been the case over the previous period since the formation of the Governing Council and remains to this day, and therefore, ISCI believes that these disputes must stop in order to preserve the gains of the political process and its national achievements and preserve the national project.

We can record the causes of these conflicts and our positions of them, and that we know the view of ISCI cannot be dispensed in dealing with any crisis that arises between the parties and the need to access solutions that address the crisis only by referencing it. These causes are as follows:

1- The continuing conflict between Aliraqiah list and the State of Law list:

That this political conflict since the announcement of the results of the last legislative elections through the crisis of government formation and the three presidencies, and the later Arbil agreement did not stop this conflict. The more the parties reach solutions that satisfy everyone the more crises that emerge on the scene. Crises that complicate the scene through tense statements of this party or that or by raising the ceiling of liabilities or differences on the details.
This conflict between the two blocs (Aliraqiah and State of law) is governed by three levels:

A - Intense competition between the Prime Minister Nuri Almaliki, and the head of State of Law list, and Dr. Iyad Allawi, the head of Aliraqiah list, which formed a break between the two men. Although meetings have occurred between them this did not exceed the protocol of a formal meeting and they were not serious in resolving the effects between them and coming to radical solutions that puts an end for this frenetic competition.

B - The competition between the Dawa Party and the National Accord party, and this means that the circle of political competition has become more extensive because it carries the political orientations of the competing partie's agendas, programs and curricula and it may be that the ideologies of both require from both parties that one be the most powerful in the arena at the expense of the other. This pursuit of a zero-sum is not good.

C - The intense competition between SOL and Aliraqiah, and that this competition has the most profound influence on the overall orientation of the two rivals lists as both seek to get the largest number of seats in the parliament to allow it to form a majority government and to attract the political components in any way to get the votes of these components. This is what put ​​them at odds and even puts them on the brink of exploding at any moment.

ISCI believes that the struggle for power in this way will aggravate the crisis more and put the conflicting parties further away from finding the necessary solutions. Solutions which calls for adherence to the articles of the constitution and the agreements signed by everyone in the Erbil Convention and solutions that do not deny this as the framework that was agreed upon. ISCI distances itself from these conflicts and demands to ensure the safety of the Iraqi people and provide services and maintain its achievements.

2- The Splits:

No political list has been free of splits and divisions, especially those that won the recent election, whether prior or subsequent, and these divisions have cast a shadow on the political scene and pushed the competitors more to stick to sites and positions for fear of losing an opportunity and fear of later divisions that would disturb the balance reached by the Arbil convention, which makes risky in making crucial decisions.

ISCI does not see any national interest in any split or division between the political blocs - even though it believes in the freedom of making choices- because it will lead to intersections that harm the political march and the national project of Iraq, thus it works to maintain national unity and cohesion between the political blocs.

3- The deterioration of the security situation:

Most of the political blocs believe that the deterioration of security seen in the Iraqi arena for months and even today is caused by the ongoing conflict between some of the blocs on the naming of national security ministers, thus opening a significant gap in the performance of these ministries. This causes the increase of the terror acts carried by many armed groups that are hostile to the political process, especially al Qaeda and the remnants of the previous regime and many of the other militants who have escalated their operations against security and political figures leaders as well as criminal actions against innocent citizens.

ISCI believes in the need for a comprehensive review of security services and clear them of corrupt entities who are able to sneak through the system with the support of the parties in the political process; where their own agendas do not correspond with this process. This stands counter to attempts to reform these agencies and fortify them against enemies to take their role in countering terrorism and organized crime.

4 - Poor government performance:

That the slackness ​ of the current Iraqi government (43 ministers) where those ministers are appointed because of the political quotas system is something that is bad and is at the expense of efficiency, integrity and effects the ability for the proper management of ministries. This is making it - the government - unable to provide security and services, especially electricity, in this hot summer, as well as lack of harmony among the ministers as they belong to parties that are inherently at odds with one another over the simplest things. If this is the case then how are the strategic projects to be implemented. Some people want this government to remain weak and for it to be unable to meet up with its obligations and its program, and that means loss of time and the loss of huge amounts of money from the treasury of the state.

ISCI sees that the process of reducing this current cabinet should be subject to the will of the Iraqi people and with the recommendations of the religious authority in maintaining the interests of Iraqis. That by keeping the ineffective image of the government will worsen the current situation and holds the state treasury accountable for large sums of money that can be invested in projects which an benefit the Iraqi people.

5-Lack of confidence:

The Iraqi political arena is still witnessing more disintegration and escalation in the tense statements of this or that party as well as the political intersections. This has been the cause of the lack of trust between these parties and why they cannot work with each other in a national spirit and with the heightened sense of responsibility that is required to address the crises that has beset the political process.

ISCI has worked and is still working on converging the views between the parties that have lost confidence with each other. This means that many of these parties were working to overthrow the other by any means which makes the arena open to the enemies. That is why ISCI has proposed many initiatives, including sitting at a round table, and the National Reform draft and other initiatives where everyone can get along in the political process and with the national project.

6 - The extension of the presence of the foreign troops:

It is no secret to anyone that many politicians have given promises to the Americans to keep some military bases under the pretext of maintaining security, which is still fragile, especially since the signing of the withdrawal of forces and strategic framework agreement between Iraq and the United States, an agreement which included the cooperation between our two nations in economic, cultural and security fields. This means that there is room in this field (security cooperation) for the extension of some presence of these forces through this paragraph. Those who were given promises are today in an embarrassing position in front of their popular masses so they want to approve the extension of the presence of these foreign troops through the commander in Chief of the armed forces because he is the being involved in this case.

ISCI announced its position on the issue of renewal of any extension of presence of U.S. forces in Iraq that this is up to the leaders of the military ( because it's a technical issue) and they are the ones who decide, and ISCI also believes that the current crisis is not due to the presence of troops, but a political problem that must be solved first.

7-National Alliance:

The National Alliance, which formed a government of national partnership has not meet for two months now to discuss the current situation and this causes one side to be unique in making decisions without the knowledge of the other parties. This action is opposed to the rules of procedure of the Alliance, as agreed by the parties that entered the alliance.

ISCI calls on the rest of the agreement so that the parties can work within the rules of procedure of the National Alliance and bring about the revival of meetings which have discontinued for more than two months. These meetings are needed to make national decisions that serve the higher interests of the Iraqi people and not to take decisions individually without the knowledge of others and this is a clear violation of the Rules of Procedure of the National Alliance. ISCI as one of the founders of this alliance and the current government declares that it is with any project that serves the country and stands with others to be present in the political decision-making and to distance itself from pivoting with a party against another party. ISCI remains an important part in all positions.
