Kurds Threaten to Bolt Iraqi Government 

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Kurdish parties warned Wednesday that they might bolt 
Iraq (news - web sites)'s new government if Shiites gain too much 
power. In another challenge to the interim administration, saboteurs 
blew up an oil pipeline, forcing a 10 percent cut in electricity 
output. 

Kurdish fears of Shiite domination rose after the Americans and 
British turned down their request to have a reference to the interim 
constitution � which enshrines Kurdish federalism � included in the 
U.N. resolution approved Tuesday. 

The country's most prominent Shiite leader, Grand Ayatollah Ali al-
Husseini al-Sistani, rejected any mention of the interim charter in 
the resolution. Shiites oppose parts of the charter that give Kurds a 
veto over a permanent constitution due to be drawn up next year. 

Meanwhile, clashes persisted Wednesday around Fallujah, a rebellious 
Sunni Muslim city west of Baghdad. Four members of an Iraqi force 
given control of the city last April were wounded when a mortar round 
exploded. 

The pipeline attack appeared to be part of an insurgent campaign 
against infrastructure to shake confidence in the new government, due 
to take power on June 30. 

The blast occurred about 9:30 a.m. near Beiji, 155 miles north of 
Baghdad, said Col. Sarhat Qadir of the Kirkuk police. Huge fireballs 
rose into the air, witnesses said. 

Oil Ministry spokesman Assem Jihad told Dow Jones Newswires that the 
attack would not effect exports from the northern oil fields. 
However, the blast cut supplies to the Beiji electric power station, 
forcing a reduction of 400 megawatts in power generation, Jihad said. 

Iraq now produces around 4,000 megawatts. Power cuts in the country 
have now reached more than 16 hours a day, making it difficult to 
cope with soaring heat, which is already more than 100 degrees. 

The U.S.-run coalition had made its ability to guarantee adequate 
electricity supplies a benchmark of success in restoring normalcy to 
Iraq. However, sabotage and frayed infrastructure have impeded 
efforts to eliminate power outages, especially in the capital. 

Coalition officials fear that insurgents may step up attacks on 
infrastructure targets to undermine public confidence both in the 
U.S. occupation authority and the new regime. 

The new U.N. resolution, adopted unanimously by the Security Council, 
affirmed international support for the new Iraqi government. 

Both major Kurdish parties � the Kurdistan Democratic Party and the 
Patriotic Union of Kurdistan � conferred Wednesday to consider a 
response to the decision not to refer to the interim constitution in 
the resolution. The interim charter, adopted in March, affirms the 
principle of federalism. 

Kurds fear that the interim constitution, which the Americans hailed 
as the most progressive in the Middle East, will be sidelined once 
the occupation ends and the Shiite clergy gains ascendancy. 

The Kurds have been running their own autonomous mini-state since 
1991, and many Kurds would prefer their own independent country. 

At the United Nations (news - web sites), Secretary-General Kofi 
Annan (news - web sites) sought to reassure the Kurds, saying that 
while the resolution doesn't refer to the constitution, it "does have 
language that refers to a united federal democratic Iraq." 

Diplomats said reference to the interim constitution was omitted 
because of opposition by al-Sistani. Shiites are believed to comprise 
about 60 percent of Iraq's 25 million while Kurds number around 15 
percent. 

In a statement addressed to the U.N. Security Council earlier this 
week, al-Sistani warned that mentioning the interim charter in the 
resolution would be "an act against the will of the Iraqi people and 
will have dangerous results." 

Iraq's Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari, the first Kurd to hold the 
post, said he had lobbied unsuccessfully for an acknowledgment of the 
charter during his meetings at the Security Council last week. 

But he said he was satisfied that the "spirit" of the charter was in 
the final resolution. 

Still, Kurdish leaders in Iraq were unconvinced. 

"Now our future is ambiguous," said Nesreen Berwari, a Kurdish member 
of the interim government. "The interim constitution would have been 
the clear and bright roadmap to the all components of the Iraqi 
people." 

Berwari said she would resign if asked to do so by the Kurdish 
leadership. 

"Until now, we have not called for a separate Kurdistan, but if the 
Kurds' rights are not recognized, then we will take political 
measures that serve the interests of the Kurdish people," said Mulaha 
Bekhtiyar of the PUK. "For the time being, we will commit to a united 
Iraq." 

Bekhtiyar said that the Kurds would not agree to the Shiites having 
the "lion's share" of any government. 

Meanwhile, some Iraqis welcomed the new resolution, which the United 
States and Britain had to repeatedly alter to accomodate demands that 
the interim government be given greater authorities. Iraqis have 
worried that the continued presence of U.S.-led troops will limit 
what is supposed to be the new administration's full sovereignty. 

"Full sovereignty won't come overnight particularly because Iraq has 
been subject to threats and terrorist acts," said Baghdad resident 
Tareq Rasheed. "As far as I'm concerned, the troops could stay, but 
outside the cities, until the government is able to control 
security." 

But another Baghdadi was against any foreign interference in Iraq. "I 
don't welcome any resolution issued by the Security Council regarding 
Iraq. All their resolutions are fabricated and they impose them on 
the Iraqi people," Abdul-Karim Hassan said. 

In other developments: 

_ A group holding two hostages � a Turk and an Egyptian � threatened 
to kill the captives after Friday prayers unless their home 
governments condemn U.S. actions in Iraq. The threat was made in a 
statement distributed in Fallujah. 

_ Insurgents attacked a Baghdad city council member Tuesday, wounding 
him and killing two of his bodyguards, the military said. The 
incident is under investigation.
