Baghdad Power Struggle Adds to Chaos in Iraq by nktime
Tuesday August 12th, 2014 at 7:14 AM

TIME » Time Sections » World

For several months, the Obama Administration has made it clear that it wanted Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki to step aside and make way for a more inclusive government, seen as a critical step to bringing Iraq back from the brink of disintegration along sectarian lines.

Now, in what is likely the biggest challenge yet to Iraq’s stability and integrity, the forces of the Islamic State of Iraq and greater Syria (ISIS) are capturing new territory in northern and central Iraq, sending thousands of Yazidis and Christians fleeing for their lives, and killing virtually any Shi’ite who stands in their path. Amidst this, Maliki is adding fuel to the fire and pulling the world’s attention back in the direction of Baghdad.

On Monday, Maliki defied calls to make way for Haidar al-Abadi as the country’s new prime minister, insisting that after two terms in the job, he is entitled to a third according to the Iraqi constitution. On Sunday, Maliki accused the country’s new president, Fouad Massoum, a Kurd elected by parliament, of carrying out “a coup against the constitution and the political process.” Maliki’s son-in-law Hussein al-Maliki told Reuters that the president’s decision to name Abadi as the new premier was “illegal”.

Upping the ante, Maliki has deployed his special forces and Shi’ite militias around Baghdad, suggesting he might use force to thwart any attempt to enforce the decision. The increased presence of forces in the capital takes place against the backdrop a recent string of car bombings aimed at Shi’ite neighborhoods, and indications that ISIS is looking for an opportunity to advance toward Baghdad.

Douglas Ollivant, a former Director for Iraq on the National Security Council under the Bush and Obama Administrations, suggests Maliki’s actions may be bluster. “We don’t know where Iran stands on this, but unless they back him on his bid to stay, I think he’s posturing—that’s what people do,” he says. “I think he knows that will really cross a red line for ‘peaceful retirement,’ which we presume is what he wants.”

Ollivant, now a Senior National Security Studies Fellow at the New America Foundation in Washington, spoke to TIME immediately after a press conference given by President Barack Obama late on Monday afternoon. “There is no American military solution to the larger crisis in Iraq,” Obamasaid. “The only lasting solution is for Iraqis to come together and form an inclusive government.” Obama also noted that he had “stepped up military advice and assistance to Iraqi and Kurdish forces as they wage the fight against ISIL,” another name for ISIS.

The key goals for now are essentially to contain ISIS, helping Kurdish forces to keep Islamic militants from reaching outskirts of Erbil, the capital of Iraq’s semiautonomous Kurdish region, where the US maintains a consulate. “I think the president has made it clear that that’s all he’ll do until a new government has been formed,” Ollivant adds.

But Abadi has up to a month to do so. What happens to Iraq in the meantime?

“If they try taking Erbil or something on the border with Jordan or Baghdad, the U.S. airpower will engage them. Essentially, the airpower is holding them off from going any further,” Ollivant says. “If they can get a representative government, I think they [the Obama Administration] would like to do an attack on ISIS in the mold of what happened in Libya, combining foreign airpower with local ground forces in a more concerted effort,” he said, referring to the 2011 overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi.

Today, of course, Libya is a nation in tatters. The Obama Administration had hoped to leave Iraq in a much more stable place when it pulled out the last U.S. troops later that year, in December, 2011. A chorus of critics blame Maliki for his hyper-sectarian campaign that alienated Sunnis—and may have even pushed some of them into the arms of ISIS. Now, ISIS also has American weaponry in its hands, left behind by retreating Iraqi government forces when the militants seized Mosul in June.

“The US has basically armed ISIS, because they take these weapons over and they know how to use them. And they are drawing support deep within the Islamic consciousness and the Sunni uprising,” says David Andelman, an Iraq expert and the editor of World Policy Journal in New York. “Obama came into office on the platform of, we’re closing down wars overseas: Iraq and eventually Afghanistan. He believed he made good on that pledge, and now he’s discovering he didn’t. They left so many loose ends, and now we’re going to have to go in and clean them up.”

All of which leaves the Obama Administration—and the Iraqis and Kurds who are keen for massive military backing sooner rather than later—in a difficult place. America wants no boots on the ground, and no one in the Iraqi government wants to be seen as inviting them back. But airstrikes have their limits, and may not be enough to stop ISIS from reaching just a little farther.

The two big lies about pot in Uruguay

MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay — Uruguay has become the Great Green Hope for legal marijuana proponents across the globe.

Pot is now all-but-completely legal in this little South American country, and the government has started rolling out the rules and bureaucracy for its extraordinary experiment.

But, as pot proponents in the United States and elsewhere look on closely, there’s still a lot of confusion about how it’s going to work.

Two big falsehoods in particular have been propounded by Uruguayan officials and repeated by the media.

A closer look reveals some uncomfortable truths about the direction Uruguay’s weed revolution may be headed.

Martin wants to grow Uruguay's best weed at his Montevideo apartment. See more from this gallery.(Kamilia Lahrichi/GlobalPost)

1. Pot will sell for $1 a gram

Get this straight: Uruguay’s government has not explained how it would sell pot in pharmacies at $1 a gram. Yet this canard has been spread across news stories from Australia to Canada.

It originates from an October story by The Associated Press, which attributes the $1-a-gram claim to Uruguay’s drug czar Julio Calzada. Since then, it has spiraled and morphed into an oft-repeated pledge by the ruling Broad Front party.

Nobody who GlobalPost spoke to in the cannabis industry thinks it’s feasible to price one gram of pot at $1.

In common US terms, that would be like selling an eighth of an ounce for about $3.50. By contrast, the cheapest cannabis listed online by The Clinic dispensary chain in Denver, Colorado, was going for $59.45 for an eighth on Thursday.

“That’s basically impossible,” said the owner of a Dutch pot producer.

“That’s basically impossible, in my mind. I can’t see that happening,” said Tjalling Erkelens, the owner of Bedrocan BV, which grows legal marijuana in the Netherlands.

Erkelens said an individual might be able to grow and sell weed for $1 a gram in their yard, if they just tossed out some seeds, chopped down the plants, dried them and sold them on their front porch.

But any conditions placed on the quality of the pot, and any requirement to package it or transport it would increase costs significantly, Erkelens said.

Uruguay has conditions galore, according to the government’s recently released call for growers of cannabis.

Uruguay has grand plans to track every legal marijuana plant in the country using radio frequency tags — something that hasn’t ever been done in any other legal marijuana market. And there’s a host of other sophisticated conditions: Growers must cultivate cannabis inside, requiring greenhouses to be built (growing outside would be impossible year-round in Uruguay’s wet, often cold environment); and they have to provide their own security and packaging, dispose of waste in stipulated ways and provide extensive records on quality control.

Start piling on luxuries like those, and that bargain barrel price looks like a pipe dream, said Neil Closner, CEO of Ontario-based MedReleaf Corporation.

“There’s no way that’s feasible. No way,” he said.

Then there’s the question of distributing the weed.

Erkelens said the cost of transporting pot alone accounts for half the wholesale price of the marijuana his company sells. He was coy about the exact wholesale price.

Pot retails in Canada for about $6.50 a gram, while in Holland the price is about $13 a gram, he said.

In an excellent research paper last year, two analysts concluded that even with massive wholesale production of cannabis, and significant economies of scale, costs would never dip below $1 a gram (a hat-tip to this blog post for the link.)

All this brings up the questions: How on Earth does Uruguay hope to attract companies or individual growers to produce weed if they can only sell it for $1 a gram? Why would companies be interested in taking on what surely seems to be a loss-making enterprise?

Emails and phone calls to government officials to try to answer this question went unanswered.

There is, of course, one way for the Uruguayan government to meet its bargain offer: by heavily subsidizing the growing and distribution of pot.

And that brings us to our next point.

2. Pot in Uruguay will be tax-free

This is another falsity that’s been repeated again and again in the media.

Uruguay’s ruling Broad Front party, gearing up for an election in October, desperately needs to win over skeptics of the new marijuana law. That includes people who favor legalization but don’t like the idea of the government controlling — and taxing — their smoking habits.

Never fear, government officials have said, weed won’t be taxed.

Again, that’s just very unlikely to be true.

First off, consider what we discussed above: If it’s impossible to produce and transport high-quality pot and still make a profit at the state-set price, there has got to be some sort of subsidy involved somewhere. And a subsidy that takes money from one part of the budget and plugs it into another could be considered a form of taxation.

But there is also a blatant tax on weed.

As this post by research group InSight Crime rightly points out, government officials have said they will charge both a fixed and a “variable fee” on cannabis growers. This fee will be used to help pay for the bureaucracy Uruguay is building to regulate its pot market.

That fee is a tax.

The government doesn’t call it that because doing so would be unpopular, but it’s a tax. And it would eventually be passed on to consumers.

Which brings us to a strange conclusion.

One of two things must be happening here:

a) Weed isn’t really going to sell at $1 a gram, but will sell at market price, including the cost of the fees (taxes) to the growers; or

b) It will sell at $1 a gram, but only because the government is significantly subsidizing it.

Think about Scenario B for a minute — that means the government would be subsidizing the price of pot in part to help companies pay the fees being charged by the government! In other words, the Uruguayan government would be taxing itself.

Both of these scenarios are really big deals.

Scenario A is a big deal because the visionaries who created this law did so specifically to combat narco-traffickers and to try to kill the illegal pot trade. They have said repeatedly that to do this, they must sell weed that’s cheaper and better quality than what can be bought on the street.

But as GlobalPost reported recently, good quality illegal pot is dropping in price already, and by demanding all the conditions they are from growers, there seems to be no guarantee the government can sell weed for less than it can be bought for on the street.

Scenario B is a big deal because this pot law is already deeply unpopular in Uruguay.

The Broad Front, which six months ago was expected to sail to victory in October’s elections, is now facing a tough fight from a rival candidate. That opponent has said he will dismantle the pot law as one of his first orders of business.

As the election battle heats up, think what happens if it emerges that Uruguay really will be taking money from its health, education or other budgets to subsidize the nation’s pot habit.

That would make for an interesting campaign season.
