State of Law Coalition
Suleiman formed a political party, National Front for the Salvation of Iraq, in 2008. It ran as part of the State of Law Coalition of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, but quickly disagreements appeared, after the arrest of 10 men from his tribe in Ar Rutba, by the Karbala police. In response to the incident, Suleiman threaten to declare the State of Anbar. Suleiman formed another party (Baariq Iraq). However, his political party was banned from participating in the elections in 2014.
