(IraqiNews.com) The governor of Nineveh province, Ethel Nujaifi, called for the formation of an autonomous Sunni Province, pointing out the loss of confidence in the Central Government’s military forces, which have 
recently suffered major setbacks against insurgents belonging to the organization of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, ISIS or DAASH.
Najafi said in a statement that self-determination has become an urgent need for Iraqi Sunnis and that Sunnis cannot accept the status quo in which they have been marginalized by successive governments as well as indirectly targeted through anti-terrorism laws and de-Baathification programs.
He said that the political project of an autonomous Sunni province must be linked to the formation of an internal security force and sources of funding for the project.
