Al-Hakim calls for security accord, rebrands party
By: Ismail Zabeeh
BAGHDAD, Iraq: The Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in
Iraq (SCIRI) headed by Sayyed Abdul Aziz Al-Hakim has dropped the word
"revolution" from its name on Saturday.
It will henceforth be known as the Supreme Islamic Council of Iraq.
Al-Hakim announced the name change at a news conference called to
confirm his re-election at the head of the party, which is part of
Iraq's ruling coalition.
Hakim and his brother, the late Ayatullah Sayyed Mohammed Baqir
Al-Hakim, founded SCIRI as an opposition movement in exile in Iran in
1982.
Meanwhile, Al-Hakim called for a "security agreement" to be negotiated
between Iraq and U.S.-led forces to outline the authorities of each
side in a further indication of growing frustration over America's
role in Iraq.
He did not give more details of the proposed pact.

better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the
more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you
get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
