Currently there is no description available for Randa Slim.
“Sunday's attack is not just an attack on al-Kadhimi, it is also an attack against the political class. It really amounts to a coup attempt. While there has been no claim of responsibility, there's a lot of circumstantial evidence pointing to the Iran-backed Iraqi militias. Recently, some members of the militias have been indicted for killing some of the protesters two years ago. And al-Kadhimi's late adviser, Hisham al-Hashemi, was assassinated by suspected members of these militias. So they and al-Kadhimi have been engaged in this tug of war and they stand to benefit most from forcing al-Kadhimi out of the picture. But in my opinion, it's a very stupid and shortsighted move, because if anything it's going to make al-Kadhimi a victim and will elevate his political chances of going back to the prime minister's office.”
