Dr. Saman Shali (Candidate for Pres. of Iraq) – Opn Epic Fury Week #3, Iranian Influence in Iraq.
Operation Epic Fury / Operation Lion’s Roar Week #3 Developments: Major disruptions in the regime’s ranks, personnel not getting paid, the logic of seizing Kharg Island.
Special Guest: Dr. Saman Shali is an Independent candidate for President of Iraq. He joins us to discuss the ongoing situation in Iran, but we’re also gonna talk Iran’s poisonous tentacles inside Iraq. Plus, we’ll cover what caused many of Iraq’s military and leadership forces to turn against the US in recent years as well as what the future of Iraq could look like after the fall of the Islamic Regime in Tehran.
I vouch for Dr. Saman as independent candidate for the position of President of the Federal Republic of Iraq. If chosen I trust he will do a good job as Independent.
Many thanks for your feedback, Nijyar. Dr. Saman was a great guest. A combat veteran and scholar. He knows of what he speaks. An honor to have him on the show.
Excellent choice Gen. Audino , Dr. Saman is the right candidate of choice for Iraq as an independent runner. Iraq needs a new start away from the actual panorama . Maybe Ambassador Waltz can vouch for him in appropriate circles with special envoy Tom Barrack for political support and endorsement , Mr. Sali maintains good relations within Iraq and region wise, I know his name is also respected in nearby Syria, that is a plus that will consolidate stability in the neighborhood.
Thanks for the comment, Naji. All good points. Iraq (and the rest of the world) can definitely use a few more statesmen!
I have seen Dr Saman Shali’s interviews in reputable tv channels and social media.
His excellent analysis really impresses me, as an independent candidate he has shown that he is not biased in anyway and free from party political influence. I am certain if selected he will put Iraq and Kurdistan’s interest a priority and wouldn’t take any decision to harm his country for anyone that contradict his principles like Iraqis do for Iran.
I am sure he will make an excellent president for a country that needs it.
He is a man of integrity and I am sure he will get on with every reasonable person or party.
Thanks for your feedback, Aras. His analysis impressed me, too, and he seems to me to have the judgment and demeanor to work well with colleagues and others.
Dr. Shali has been instrumental in improving his country’s foreign relations. His knowledge and expertise outweigh many others. He’s a loyal patriot who will have a lot to offer Iraq.
Thanks for your comment, Rania. I agree that he has a lot to offer Iraq.
Dr Saman is the best candidate today for Iraqs presidency. Because Iraq needs someone like him full of experience , reliable , respected by all Iraqis despite of their differences , he understands east and west . Iraq needs him more than any one else.
Zor supas, Mamosta. I agree that Iraq needs Dr. Saman’s experience and respectability.
I am happy to see that Dr. saman is a candidate for the Presidency of Iraq. I have known him for more that four decades. We met when he joined Penn State University in the mid-1980’s. We have good friends since. I am a retired Professor and on the side consultant to the biomanufacturing industry in US. As an American Citizen and a Kurd, I would love to see my friend take the post of Iraqi President.why? Here are few reasons:
1- He is highly Educated, bright, intelligent and a great communicator.
2- He is independent and can get a long with the diverse groups in Kurdistan region and Iraq.
3-I know from actual observation while he was in US that he is a great advocate for the Kurdish cause. He doscit from the heart.
I hope he gets full support from the Trump administration for the post.
Zor supas, Doctor. I appreciate your first-hand endorsement of Doctor Saman.
