     The politician nadīm al-jābirī has on Friday drawn attention to the patent disagreements in the Shia alliance, most notably the alliances for the campaign for the election of the coming year, judging that there is no common vision about the constituents of the national alliance over the national affairs and the splits in the political blocs arising from their abject failure.
