Article 2:
* Stipulates that The Constitution must adhere to the Principles Of Democracy & Islamic Laws:
* All decisions must be Democratic: Rule Of Law, and in keeping with Islamic interpretation of justice:
* It also stipulates the creation of A Federal System of Government Of Individual States under the Constitution.
* The Sunni minority advisors to the drafting of this constitution has not endorsed this draft, and has rejected it in it's entirety, because they feel that Iraq must be Administered by Islamic Laws, with a Central Government at the helm.
* The Sunni advisors to the drafting of the constitution, also rejects the clause giving Kurdistan full autonomy:
* The Sunni's fear that if this present draft is accepted by Iraqis come October-2005 referendum, then the Sunnis will have little or no control over their future as a people, or a religious sect. Nor would they enjoy equity in the distribution of Iraqi's resources. For example, oil and other much needed infrastructure etc. Because the Shiite majority in power, will be in a position to discriminate against them.
A Necessary Provision:

* Will there be A Supreme Court Of Justice: An Appellate Court: or Ombudsman?
* How many Justices will comprise the Supreme Court, and will it be dual gender?
* What criteria would The Supreme Court Justices use, as reference or guidance for making decisions.
* How long will a Supreme Court Judge have to serve in that capacity?
* And will these justices be appointed by the Political Administration in power, or by the President of Iraq?
