Muqwama connection: Failed assassination attempt on Iraq’s Prime minister.

Iraq's Prime Minister, Mustafa al-Kadhimi, narrowly escaped oblivion in a drone strike engineered attack in Baghdad on Sunday, November 7, 2021. Analysts link the incident to the recently concluded general election, of which the outcome is heavily disputed by Iran-supported militia segments. Dismal electoral efforts by (AAH)’s Asaib Ahl al-Haq and Kataib Hezbollah's (KH's) Hoquq, meant that the ‘Muqwama’ saw incoming isolation from influence, leading to speculation that they could be behind the drone attack on Iraq’s Prime Minister.

In recent years, a new phenomenon for governmental and social restructuring, the Muqwama doctrine, has increasingly seen support from the public and influential political figures, especially in the Middle East territories, such as Iran, Iraq, and Palestine. Muqwama, literally translated from Arabic as "Resistance", follows a discourse for overhauling leadership in the aforementioned countries and others. On Friday, November 5, 2021, supporters of Muqwama, perceiving the isolation, escalated their protests by advancing to the International Zone and attacking the security personnel with stones.

Muqwama affiliated media took advantage of the situation and released videos of injured protestors and the protests. According to The Washington Institute, this was an attempt by Muqwama to sway public support towards their initiatives, since according to statistics from Reuters, the injured numbered a few more than twenty, mainly from tear gas inhalation and a few policemen due to being pelted. A fairly insignificant clash by Iraqi protest standards. On the very day that AAH leader Qais al-Khazali threatened legal action against Khadimi, However, the explosive-laden quadcopter drone attack reveals a different approach to the AAH leader’s way of achieving justice.

Previously, Muqwama has instigated successful convictions of individuals who acted against human rights, such as Kataib Hezbollah operators who killed protestors, in Basra, and the removal of Muqwama executives from intelligence agencies. Militia spotlight regards the violent response by KH and AAH as the first in a series of incoming protests. The Muqwama have denied the allegations that they were behind the attack and shifted blame to Western territories. On Sunday, United States President Joe Biden heavily condemned the attack and called for measures to strengthen democracy.
