Allawi trying to shore up political support with some success.
"He said the powerful al-Dulaimi tribe in Anbar would declare its support for the government very soon."
"Allawi, a secular Shiite, was also in contact with the Anbar members of the large Al-Shamar tribe and that they too were "responsive and very cooperative and declared their complete support of the government," added Naqib."
Allawi also made a temporary governor for Fallujah and Ramadi.
