Safia al-Suhail, Women's Rights Warrior, Moves Into Iraqi Spotlight

by

Safia al-Suhail moves into the spotlight in Iraq.Omar at Iraq the Model has the latest on the political maneuvering going on in Iraq including this exciting rumor that Safiya al-Suhail may move into a powerful Iraqi Cabinet position: Salih al-Mutlaq the leader of the other secular bloc in the parliament (11 seats) told al-Sharq al-Awsat that he supports giving one of the deputy PM posts to a woman, namely Safiya al-Suhail from the Iraqi list.The reason why I think al-Suhail has a good chance is because one of the two deputy PM posts is the share of her bloc, so if she gets the support of the bloc and if Allawi decides to find another place for himself we might be able to see a woman in one of the most powerful places in the government, but of course this also would need that Islamists in large blocs do not vote against her, and here I think they will hesitate to vote against her for fear from being accused of discrimination.
