The Latest: Iraq Parliament speaker says he supports demandsAn influential Iraqi Shiite cleric has called on the government to resign and early elections be held to bring the country out of a crisis that has left more than 50 dead in four days. Earlier in the day, al-Sadr's Sairoon political bloc in parliament that came in first in last year's national elections said it was suspending participation in parliamentary activities until the government introduces a program that serves Iraqi aspirations. Since the spontaneous rallies began Tuesday, security forces have fired live rounds and tear gas every day to disperse them in multiple provinces.
