Is a good thing that Sadrist Movement got the most seats?

The Sadrists have a declared claim that they wish to keep Iraq away from regional conflicts, and to keep Iraq away from being part of any alliance or axis.

They say they want a strong Iraqi state with centralised authority, and all heavy weaponry under the direct control of the Ministry of Defense.

This is what they claim, and the easiest thing to do is to claim and talk and chant. In actual action, the Sadrist ministries and local offices have always been dens of corruption, just like other parties.

Not to mention that the Sadrists themselves are in possession of weapons and control a private army, and have used violence and assassinations in the past.

Anyway, inshallah khair.

I didn't follow it in detail but it seems like the people are pretty much disillusioned at this stage with any candidate or form of government. Nobody has really gained the trust of the people in the last 20 years. I don't know how high the turnout was, but I question if people even see a benefit in voting if it's unlikely to have any impact on their living conditions.

Inshallah brother, I wish the best to our Iraqi people.
