Funny how the Chinese national news service can find out things like thisand our media can’t.
“BAGHDAD, July 19 (Xinhua)—Iraq’s main Sunni Arab bloc ended Thursday its boycott of the parliament, a spokesman from the bloc told Xinhua.
“The Iraqi Accordance Front decided to end its boycott of the parliament sessions after the other political blocs agreed to our condition that the Front’s speaker, Mahmoud al-Mashhadani would preside the parliament sessions,” spokesman Salim Abdullah said.
The 44-member bloc of the 275-seat parliament had suspended its participation in the parliament last month after the leading Shiite and Kurdish blocs voted on June 11 to remove Mashhadani, over allegedly ordered his bodyguards to beat a Shiite Member of Parliament.
On Tuesday, Iraqi political bloc of radical Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr also ended its suspension of its membership in the Iraqi parliament.
The move of Sadr’s bloc came after the government responded to their demands of protecting the shrines and the formation of a committee to supervise the reconstruction of the two Shiiteshrines in Samarra, both were destroyed by repeated attacks.”
Even Mookie is bowing down before the Parliament in the face of Al Queda getting owned by the citizens and forces of Iraq.
Why are CNN, NBC, CBS, and ABC so silent about this?

"update" After going 5 pages into FOXNews online I found this AP article. I have AP on one of my RSSFeeds, never saw it there. Guess I will try their public pages, too.
