	globalinfo.org - Feb 13, IRAQ (#35109) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		ARBIL, Iraq, Feb. 13, 2005 (IPS/GIN) -- The main victors in the Iraq elections appear to be a slate of Shia politicians inspired by Grand Ayatollah Ali Sistani, and led by Sayyed Abdel Aziz al-Hakim, head of the Supreme Council for Islamic Revolution in Iraq.
		For many years his organization received the bulk of its funding from the Iranian government, and as the election neared he spoke often of resuming Iraq's relations with its eastern neighbour.
		In this, al-Samarai and others close to the Sunni resistance have something in common with the Shia slate of Abdel Aziz al-Hakim, who also made a phased withdrawal of U.S. soldiers from Iraq a key part of his group's platform.

		It is precisely why the US has now issued orders to its troops to vacate Saudi Arabia – tossing a sop to Osama bin Laden, who used the presence of “the great Satan’s armed forces” on “holy Islamic soil” as a rallying cry for his global Al Qaida organization.
