BAGHDAD, July 19 (Reuters) - Iraq's main Sunni Arab bloc has rejoined the Shi'ite-led government in a breakthrough for national reconciliation after parliament accepted its candidates for vacant ministerial posts on Saturday, lawmakers said.

Getting the Accordance Front to return after it quit the cabinet a year ago in a row over power sharing has been seen as vital to healing deep divisions between majority Shi'ites and minority Sunni Arabs.

Sunni Arabs have little voice in the current cabinet, which is dominated by Shi'ites and ethnic Kurds.
