Maliki seeks Sunni unity against al Qaida in Tikrit visit
Iraq’s Shiite prime minister Nouri al Maliki urged Sunni tribal chiefs in Saddam’s hometown Tikrit to unite with Shiites to crush al Qaida in Iraq and extremist militias. He aims to shore up a fragile government and signal flexibility after past clashes with U S forces and Muqtada al Sadr allies. He met sheiks and outlined a new northern focus amid rising insurgent bases. The move accompanies a new alliance with the Supreme Islamic Iraqi Council and Kurdish parties, while the Badr Brigade opposition shifts in Baghdad.
