Iraq tribal leader offers US talks |
|
The head of the Islamic Army of Iraq has for the first time offered to open peace talks with US forces in the country, his spokesman tells Al Jazeera. Ibrahim al-Shammari, the lead spokesman for one of the most significant Sunni armed groups, said the talks could take place if the US commits to a timetable for the withdrawal of its soldiers. In an exclusive interview to Al Jazeera, al-Shammari said that although Sunni groups are turning away from al-Qaeda, it is not because of any deal with the US as claimed in Washington.
