SHAFAQNA – During an Iraqi TV debate, Sunni and Shiite commentators clashed over the role of the Shiite Al-Hashd Al-Shaabi militia in the military campaign in Tikrit, in the Salah Al-Din province of Iraq. Participating in the debate were Abu Wareth Al-Musawi, spokesman for the Al-Nujaba Movement, part of Al-Hashd Al-Shaabi, Amman-based Iraqi researcher Dr. Yahya Al-Kubaisi, and Qais Al-Ameri, of the National Iraqi Alliance. After much wrangling between the participants, Al-Kubaisi got up and left the studio in protest. The debate aired on Dijlah TV on March 14.
