Iraqi forces control all five bridges in Mosul, ISIS 'nearly defeated’ in east
Iraqi forces have taken control of all five bridges on the eastern bank of the Tigris river by Tuesday evening, a correspondent near the fifth bridge reports.
Iraq's government should be changed to a modified semi-presidential system with parliament and cabinet such as that followed in Finland. Its legislature should be changed out for a committee type system similar to that of Switzerland. The Iraqi government should proceed with implementing a basic constitution with these systems and put into practice a model of democracy under the principle of One World under One Set of Rules and a constitution in sync with the times. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development.
