URGENT ALERT:IMMINENT THREAT TO IRAQI LAWYER BADEE IZZAT AREF
We have received information that the liberty and life of Badee Izzat Aref, prominent Iraqi lawyer to Tariq Aziz and several members of the government of President Saddam Hussein, is in danger.Aref has been under US house arrest for 17 days and the Maliki government is demanding he be handed over by US authorities to face charges of defaming the Iraqi judicial system following comments he allegedly made on the unfair trials and summary executions of President Saddam Hussein and others.Given the Maliki government's eagerness in summarily executing its political opponents -- including their lawyers -- we have firm reason to believe that Aref is in immediate danger of being tortured and/or assassinated.On 21 June 2006, lawyer Khamis Al-Obaidi, defence counsel for late President Saddam Hussein, was tortured and assassinated in Baghdad, joining lawyers Sadoun Al-Janabi, killed in October 2005, and Adel Al-Zubaidi, killed in November 2005. In all cases, witnesses alleged the Iraqi government was involved. Al-Obaidi was the ninth person connected with the trial of President Hussein to be killed.Throughout the proceedings of the Iraqi Special Tribunal lawyers were repeated threatened. This fact alone is testament that all defendants before the Iraqi Special Tribunal faced unfair trials.The United States is directly responsible under international lawWe remind occupation authorities that Badee Izzat Aref is a protected person under international humanitarian law, which governs the US occupation, and has guaranteed rights under international human rights law.[i] International humanitarian and human rights law outlaws torture and summary execution, incommunicado detention, the ill treatment of detainees, or denial of access to legal counsel.Further, Aref -- as a human rights defender -- is additionally protected by the UN Declaration on Human Rights Defenders.[ii] It is a grave violation of international humanitarian law to put protected persons in danger by consciously handing them over to any party that might violate their fundamental human rights. Given the appalling human rights record of the Maliki government, we believe that Aref will be subject serious violations of his human rights -- including his right to life -- unless there is urgent intervention on his behalf and US authorities respect their duty to protect him.The BRussells Tribunal demands assurances of the wellbeing, liberty and security of Badee Izzat Aref. The US occupation is directly responsible for Aref's welfare and must guarantee his security.The imminent danger faced by Badee Izzat Aref illustrates once again that the US-Maliki plan for Iraq has failed and that all they can now propose is repression and executions.Take action now!We call on all news agencies, human rights organisations, national and international press associations and freedom of expression advocacy groups to stand in solidarity with Badee Izzat Aref and all patriotic human rights defenders in Iraq and take immediate action to help secure his rights and all those defending the integrity of law against the ravages of the occupation.The BRussells Tribunal Committeehttp://brusselstribunal.orgPlease circulate this alert widely.

Read the following American article to realize the truth. The Americans organized and financed death squads in El Salvador killed even Americans just to demonize the resistance in El Salvador.

‘The Salvador Option’
The Pentagon may put Special-Forces-led assassination or kidnapping teams in Iraq

By Michael Hirsh and John Barry
Newsweek
Jan. 14, 2005

Jan. 8 - What to do about the deepening quagmire of Iraq? The Pentagon’s latest approach is being called "the Salvador option"—and the fact that it is being discussed at all is a measure of just how worried Donald Rumsfeld really is. "What everyone agrees is that we can’t just go on as we are," one senior military officer told NEWSWEEK. "We have to find a way to take the offensive against the insurgents. Right now, we are playing defense. And we are losing." Last November’s operation in Fallujah, most analysts agree, succeeded less in breaking "the back" of the insurgency—as Marine Gen. John Sattler optimistically declared at the time—than in spreading it out Now, NEWSWEEK has learned, the Pentagon is intensively debating an option that dates back to a still-secret strategy in the Reagan administration’s battle against the leftist guerrilla insurgency in El Salvador in the early 1980s. Then, faced with a losing war against Salvadoran rebels, the U.S. government funded or supported "nationalist" forces that allegedly included so-called death squads directed to hunt down and kill rebel leaders and sympathizers. Eventually the insurgency was quelled, and many U.S. conservatives consider the policy to have been a success—despite the deaths of innocent civilians and the subsequent Iran-Contra arms-for-hostages scandal. (Among the current administration officials who dealt with Central America back then is John Negroponte, who is today the U.S. ambassador to Iraq. Under Reagan, he was ambassador to Honduras. There is no evidence, however, that Negroponte knew anything about the Salvadoran death squads or the Iran-Contra scandal at the time. The Iraq ambassador, in a phone call to NEWSWEEK on Jan. 10, said he was not involved in military strategy in Iraq. He called the insertion of his name into this report "utterly gratuitous.")

Silence Is No More Golden

2007-03-17T15:08:00.000-07:00

With the fifth anniversary of the ongoing Iraqi agony, President Bush is still trying to change the World but not himself. We should go through the changes he brought creating the “New” Iraq: according to the international organization and UN more than 20% from the Iraqis became under poverty line, more than 700 000 civilians lost their lives; more than 4 million Iraqis became refugees inside and outside Iraq because of the ongoing violence; more than 300 000 poor women were widowed; more than 2 million women became the bread winners of their families; the Baghdad morgue receives more than 60 dead bodies on daily bases. Iraq was destroyed as a country and state by the decrees of Bush viceroy in Iraq Paul Bremer who established the so called the Governing Council on sectarian and ethnic bases that led to the sectarian violence. By dismantling the Iraqi military and security forces; Bremer and the occupation forces let Iraq to be the battle field of Bush war against the alleged terror to make the world safer for the Americans!! on the expense of the Iraqi blood. The whole infrastructure systems were bombed and the general services including electricity, drinking water and fuel became very rare. Yet and to be fair; one should admit the achievements of the “new” Iraq: Iraq became on the top of the corrupted states according to the International Transparency Organization by reaching 70-100% corruption, more than 10 billion dollars were lost! (stolen), Iraqis are gaining perfect bodies because of walking due to the concert barriers and barbwires blocking the streets in front of the cars and running away from the explosions and terrorist actions; the whole ex air forces bases turned into jails!!Bush, Blair and the others coalition invaded Iraq according to false documents regarding the Iraqi WMDs and Saddam’s links with Al-Qaeda. Bush himself had admitted this painful fact yet UN did not ask him to apologize, rebuild Iraq and withdrew. UN even did not ask him to apologize when Abu Gharib scandal was disclosed. Security Council did not ask urgent meeting while Bush was and still violating the all international laws and Geneva Treatments. Four painful years, the world is watching the Iraqi ongoing bleeding silently. It is time that silence in no more golden. We all should recall what Nelson DeMille, the American writer who participated as an officer in the American military forces in Vietnam War, he said, “If everyone howled at every injustice, every act of barbarism, every act of unkindness, then we would be taking the first step towards a real humanity.” It is time to shout: enough is enough; Bush should try to change himself and the Americans should try to change their regime. Almost one million civilian Iraqis bloods is enough for giving the Americans safer world, more fuel for their cars and more prosperity. We should all shout put in mind that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said those who watch injustice silently are evils and Martin Luther King said that silence is betrayer

Do Appeal Now

2007-02-11T13:08:00.000-08:00

Dear friends,
Sorry for not writing every day or at least every week.. The situation is too painful that could not be described. Yet I received the following letter from a friend; please do read it well and raise your voice; do appeal. Read it well to discover that JUSTICE in Iraq is not but a BAD JOKE.
the following is the letter:
Below is disturbing information we received from Iraq . The imminent execution of three Iraqi women: Wassan, Zainab and Liqa, without a fair trial, is expected to take place on March 3.

The executions of what they call " Terrorists" and " criminals" in their dozens have been going on over a year now. A public execution took place in Mosul City , North of Iraq, two months ago. however, this is the first time we hear about sentencing women to death. Amnesty International has led the way demanding an end to this practise in the " new Iraq ".

According to Mohamed Khorshid, head of Human rights orgs in Iraq in his statement to Asharq Al Awsat newspaper on 6th April 2006, there are over 2000 women classified as " security detainees " under the supervision of both the occupation and the Iraqi puppet regime, in various prisons, camps and detention centres.

In a recent statement at the Parliament, the Iraqi Minister of Human rights, said that there are over 1000 women security detainees, only to deny her own statement within a day after a public outcry.

This is the signal of the opening of an era of "legal" executions in Iraq . It is a horrible proof that the illegal executions of Saddam Hussein and other Baath leaders were not "isolated" or "exceptional" incidents, but that they laid the groundwork for employment by the Iraqi ruling clique of "judicially sanctioned" executions as a legitimate "measure" against those who oppose their puppet regime and the illegal US occupation.

We believe it is vitally important to protest and take action, to compel the Iraqi authorities to revoke this sentence. Do appeal to relevant institutions and ask them to intervene to stop this. Send your protest letters to Iraq ’s Justice minister: Hashim al Shilbi: head-minister@iraqi-justice.org.

Let’s all raise our voices. NOW !!

Hana Al Bayaty, Member BRussells Tribunal executive committee.

Helped to write this appeal: Haifa Zangana. Additional comments from Abdul Ilah Al Bayaty –in French-, Tahrir Numan and the appeal of Amnesty International underneath.

The Supreme Iraqi Criminal Court sentenced the death by hanging of three women, on charges of complicity in the murder of Iraqi police loyal to the occupation in Baghdad and participation in what the Court considered Terrorism.

News from a source in the Iraqi Lawyers Union :

The three women are:

- Wassan Talib (31 years old). The charge is killing five police officers through the participation with gunmen in an attack on police.

- Zainab Fadhil (25 years). The charge is attacking a joint patrol of the Iraqi army and the the American army last September with her husband and Her cousin in Baghdad .

- Liqa Omar Muhammad (26 years old). The charge is the participation with her husband and her brother in the killing of an official from the Green Zone.

Walid Hayali, lawyer and member of The Iraqi Lawyers Union, said the Court issued a ruling against the three women under item 156, without allowing them to engage counsel from a lawyer.

The lawyer asks the whole world to move to stop the execution of the three women and to Condemn the Court's ruling.

He points out that Liqa Omar Muhammad gave birth to her daughter in prison a few months ago and is still nursing the child, and

Wassan Talib has a three-year-old daughter. He explained that the three women are now in "Kazimiah prison" in the Kazimiyah region.

The execution is scheduled for 3 Mars and the trial was not revised in appeal as there was no lawyer to ask for this.

Dear all,

It seems such a terrible crime to execute women who have allegedly killed members of the Iraqi police, when the story of Luana Martiri, a 22-year-old Christian student in Iraq tells us what members of the police and the army are capable of. Two months ago she was raped by an Iraqi soldier following a raid at her home. http://www.irinnews.org/report.asp?ReportID=57547&SelectRegion=Middle_East&SelectCountry=Iraq
This must be the good US training.

Executing Saddam; Executing Iraq

2006-12-31T02:30:00.000-08:00

After Execution of Saddam; Iraqis lost forever the relations that destroyed their country. Saddam was not sentenced to death because of 148 Iraqis were executed when they planned to assassinate him while visiting Dujail in 1982 when he was President; this sentence came to save the “face” of the White House and many Iraqi politicians who are now key players in Iraq. The whole world remember Bush the father, the vice US president in 1983, saying; “he (Saddam) is our man in the there”! What was the relation between Bush the first and their (man) who drove Iraq to this end? The Iraqis will never discover the odd relation between Saddam and Masoud Barzani whom he helped against the militia of Jalal Talbani, now the Iraqi President, in 1996, to ”liberate” Erbil? Iraqis will never know again the odd relations between Saddam and Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak whom Saddam helped to restore leading Arab League which was shifted to Tunisia after the Egyptian former President Anwar Sadat visited Israel in 1977? Iraqis will never know the reason of the strange meeting between Saddam and Tanzanian retired President Julius Nayriry who visited Baghdad on the last day of 1988; then Saddam announced the forming of the Arab Cooperation Council in February 1989. On that visit, Nayriry said that he came to advice Saddam to establish regional councils to lead the region!! That council made Mubarak knew every thing about Iraq giving the data to US becoming one of the leading Arab leaders toward destroying Iraq. Execution Saddam is the last step of eliminating secrets would make the world to discover how America played changing the face of the region and destroying Iraq. The first step was the Tons of Iraqi official documents taken by US officials on the day Baghdad was occupied. Saddam was executed in the coming days. Who would sentence Bush who executed the whole Iraq? Bush made Iraq drown in Iraqis bloods while still until now telling lies after lies and smiling!! The all crimes committed by Saddam is being committing in Iraq now by the American occupying forces.
Executing a President in Iraq is not a strange matter. Going through the history of the modern Iraq; one can easily see that the all rulers of the modern Iraq, since 1921, were assassinated, executed and massacred brutally. The only President escaped this fate was Abdul Rahman Arif (1966-1968) who toppled by the Ba’thists in 1968.
While Saddam was buried one piece; I mean his body was one piece; only AlMighty Allah knows how the Iraqi “new” rulers would be buried?

Regarding the Iraqis new rulers, the execution is a “victory”. The followers of the Shiite cleric Muqtada Al-Sadr who suspend their participation in the political process protesting the meeting between Bush and the Iraqi Prime Minister weeks ago, said they will activate their participation after the execution. The Iraqis who are losing their country after losing more than 100 civilians every day know very well that the trial of Saddam was not but a political play to give “glory” to Bush who cheated the whole world alleging “Saddam is threatening US security”. Saddam’s lawyers who met him on the day of ratifying the sentence said he was smiling with high morals!! If he was smiling or not; the question is how the Iraqi cause would be finished?
Like it or not; one image no body will forget it: Saddam went to the gallows refusing wearing head cover while his executers were covering their heads and faces!!

Any Body Could Help Marwa?

2006-12-21T01:01:00.000-08:00

Marwa Adel Karam, 13 years old, lost her eye because of an American mistake.
Her mother interviewed by iraqirabita.org. The following is the story:
At 3.30am, Oct. 30the 2006, a unit from the American DIRTY Tasks Force raided our house in Al-Safina neighborhood- Al-A'dhamiya district. Their pretext was: searching to find the kidnapped American soldier. (An Iraqi tear: An American soldier from Iraqi origin was called Qusay Al-Qaisi was kidnapped from Karrada while he was visiting his Iraq wife family. Al-Qaisi was the cousin of Intifadh Qamber, the spokesman of Ahmed Chalabi the liar who gave Bush the false documents about the Iraqi WMDs.. Qamber was given a military post, he was appointed as the Iraqi military attaché in the Iraqi embassy in the States. That soldier was not found until now). The mother continues saying: their armored vehicles blocked the street. They exploded our door. There was no man in the hose; my husband died years ago; my son in law was detained by the police for sectarian reason. The Americans found no body and nothing in the house. They stole our money, passports and IDs. While exploding the door, shrapnel entered into the right eye of my child Marwa. When they found the crime they committed against an innocent family; they apologized and took Marwa to Ibn Sina hospital in the Green Zone. She was brought back home after 3 days confirming that she needs more two operations as Dr Hamilton recommended. Yet; they did come back again to take her.
Young Marwa; according to her mother, was very clever in her school; but she refused going to her school this year because of her eye.
The operations need $15 000.. If there is any could help her; please send a comment; I will give you the email account you can be in touch with Marwa campaign through it.

Another American Crime

2006-12-17T09:50:00.000-08:00

The Baker-Hamilton report said that unless the Iraqi government made "substantive progress" on national reconciliation, security, and good governance, the US would have to reduce its political, military, and economic support to that government.
The Kurds were displeased with the report, which recommended that the central government supervise the "distribution" of the oil revenues. Shiites disliked the fact that the report urged dialogue with Baathists and blamed the militia for massacres. And Sunnis were annoyed because the report gave Iran a legitimate role in Iraq.
The strange thing is that those Iraqi officials who often say that Iraq is a sovereign country are the same ones who want the occupation forces to stay in the country. Where is the sovereignty when the US forces killed 17 civilians in Al-Ishaqi, 40 km north of Baghdad, one day after the report? Those who reject the report do so because it conflicts with their own interests. The Kurds, for example, want to annex Kirkuk to their areas -- and the militia leaders want to maintain their grip over the country.
In a telephone conversation, Dr Ayadah Al-Jaghifi, chief of forensic medicine at Tikrit Hospital, told the repoeters that the hospital has received the bodies of 17 people, including two women and five children. All had been killed with a bullet to the head with a small weapon. A US statement earlier claimed that US planes shelled two houses in Al-Ishaqi, killing 17 terrorists, including two women. This would be the third massacre of Iraqi civilians in Al-Ishaqi since May. The families of the victims are stunned by the silence of the government and the Arab and international media. But some are hoping against hope that a US serviceman would speak out to clear his conscience or that a US or western journalist would pick up the story. Otherwise, the case would never be investigated.
Untill that day, when such journslist would publish the story; the Maliki government will stay silence; Bush will say nothing; no invistigations would be.. The victims were IRAQIS; who does care about IRAQIS or of IRAQI blood.

Iraq and Different Reports!!

Of Repetition Compulsion, War Crimes, and National Narcissism (Again)
Arthur Silber
Once Upon a Time...December 9, 2006As a followup to my observations yesterday that nothing will fundamentally alter with regard to our Iraq policy -- regardless of the supposed "seriousness" of the Iraq Study Group, and regardless of the new Democratic Congress -- here are some key excerpts from a recent column by Norman Solomon:
The lead-up to the invasion of Iraq has become notorious in the annals of American journalism. Even many reporters, editors and commentators who fueled the drive to war in 2002 and early 2003 now acknowledge that major media routinely tossed real journalism out the window in favor of boosting war.But it's happening again.The current media travesty is a drumbeat for the idea that the U.S. war effort must keep going. And again, in its news coverage, the New York Times is a bellwether for the latest media parade to the cadence of the warfare state....During the weeks since the midterm election, the New York Times news coverage of Iraq policy options has often been heavy-handed, with carefully selective sourcing for prefab conclusions. Already infamous is the Nov. 15 front-page story by Michael Gordon under the headline "Get Out of Iraq Now? Not So Fast, Experts Say." A similar technique was at play Dec. 1 with yet another "News Analysis," this time by reporter David Sanger, headlined "The Only Consensus on Iraq: Nobody's Leaving Right Now."Typically, in such reportage, the sources harmonizing with the media outlet's analysis are chosen from the cast of political characters who helped drag the United States into making war on Iraq in the first place.What's now going on in mainline news media is some kind of repetition compulsion. And, while media professionals engage in yet another round of conformist opportunism, many people will pay with their lives.With so many prominent American journalists navigating their stories by the lights of big Washington stars, it's not surprising that so much of the news coverage looks at what happens in Iraq through the lens of the significance for American power.Viewing the horrors of present-day Iraq with star-spangled eyes, New York Times reporters John Burns and Kirk Semple wrote -- in the lead sentence of a front-page "News Analysis" on Nov. 29 -- that "American military and political leverage in Iraq has fallen sharply."The second paragraph of the Baghdad-datelined article reported: "American fortunes here are ever more dependent on feuding Iraqis who seem, at times, almost heedless to American appeals."The third paragraph reported: "It is not clear that the United States can gain new traction in Iraq..."And so it goes -- with U.S. media obsessively focused on such concerns as "American military and political leverage," "American fortunes" and whether "the United States can gain new traction in Iraq."With that kind of worldview, no wonder so much news coverage is serving nationalism instead of journalism.In this manner, the status quo protects itself and its prerogatives -- and its propaganda is dutifully amplified by a subservient press. This is why I have maintained that, even after the journalistic debacle of the leadup to the Iraq invasion, the media in this country have learned absolutely nothing. And Ralph Peters may be a repellently extreme and destructive example of this nationalistic narcissism -- with his endless emphasis on what "we" must do in Iraq, even though there never was and never will be any justifiable reason for our invasion and occupation, and despite the slaughter that is the direct result of our actions -- but the identical underlying perspective is revealed by most Americans, and by almost all of our press. Hundreds of thousands of Iraqis are dead and horrifically injured -- and still, it's almost all about us.For a further discussion of the moral implications of these incontestable facts, implications that our national leaders, our media and most Americans resolutely refuse to understand and acknowledge, I turn once more to Jacob Hornberger:
Hanging over the Iraq debacle, however, is that one overriding moral issue that unfortunately all too many Americans have yet to confront: neither the Iraqi people nor their government ever attacked the United States or even threatened to do so. That means that in this conflict, which has killed more than 600,000 Iraqis, the United States is the aggressor nation and Iraq is the defending nation.Why is that issue so important? Because it involves morality, not pragmatics. Do U.S. troops have the moral right to be killing people, when they are part of a military force that has aggressed against another country? Do they have the moral right to kill people who have done nothing worse than defend their nation from attack or attempt to oust an occupier from their midst? Does simply calling an action "war" excuse an aggressor nation from the moral consequences of killing people in that war?In other words, does the United States have the moral right to violate the principles against aggressive war, for which it prosecuted Germany at Nuremberg and condemned the Soviet Union in Afghanistan?By invading and occupying Iraq, Bush and Cheney have put the American people in the uncomfortable position of either supporting their government and its troops or supporting morality. Should a person support the actions of his government and its troops or should he obey the laws of God, when the government has placed its actions in contravention to those laws? What are the moral consequences for each individual faced with that choice?Americans, quite naturally, want to continue believing that the federal government projects its power around the world just to help people. They want to believe that their government invaded Iraq just to help the Iraqi people -- well, at least after the WMDs failed to materialize and that primary justification for the invasion fell by the wayside.But it's all a life of the lie -- a life of self-imposed deception and delusion -- a life that has refused for decades to confront the brutal and hypocritical role of the federal government in the affairs of other nations, including ouster of democratically elected leaders (e.g., Mossadegh in Iran and Arbenz in Guatemala), assassinations and miltary coups (e.g., Vietnam and Chile), the support of brutal dictators (e.g., Saddam in Iraq, the Shah of Iran, and Musharraf in Pakistan), brutal and deadly sanctions and embargoes (e.g., Iraq and Cuba), foreign aid to socialist or authoritarian regimes (e.g., Israel and Egypt), the teaching of torture to Latin American military brutes at the School of the Americas, interference in the domestic affairs of other nations (e.g., Venezuela) under the guise of promoting "democracy," and, of course, the far-flung secret empire of torture camps run by the CIA.But the prospect of indefinite failure and continuous death might well cause people to face reality and cause them to confront the painful facts and truth about U.S. foreign policy.I deeply hope that Hornberger is correct that ongoing slaughter and destruction might cause people "to face reality" and "confront the painful facts and truth about U.S. foreign policy" -- but thus far, the signs are not at all encouraging.The myth of Western, and more particularly, of American "exceptionalism" is a fundamental part of our nation's view of itself. It is deeply embedded in our national psyche, and I strongly doubt it will be dislodged in the foreseeable future. I recently quoted from Hampton Sides' new book, on the subject of the U.S. war against Mexico. Recall this sentence especially:"To conquer Mexico, in other words, would be to do it a favor. "And that remains the American perspective, and it very accurately captures our colonialist, condescending, and racist national attitude toward Iraq and its peoples: we were doing them a favor. If it turned into a genocidal murder spree, well, that's only because it was managed "incompetently." Most people still will not see the inescapable moral meaning of what we have done. And most people will never acknowledge that if we had implemented a murderous plan of conquest "competently," that would only make the results infinitely worse, not "better."We have murdered an entire country, and an unconscionable and entirely unforgivably huge number of innocent Iraqis. We have murdered them, without even the merest shadow of a justifiable reason.Remember it for next time. And unless our entire perspective and worldview is challenged and rejected, there will be a next time. That is the single fact of which you can be absolutely certain.

Let’s wait and see what Bush’s MAN in Iraq will do?
I know.. I do not know..
Read “My Year In Iraq”, written by Bremer to discover how he (Bremer) deep rotted the sectarian feeling in Iraq; especially Shiites.. Then he created so called Governing Council.. I am not looking for a pretext; but saying the truth.. Again I know the hands are Iraqi

"OUR MAN" and AL-JAZZERA

2006-12-01T09:48:00.000-08:00

“He is our man in Iraq”..

Bush the second said praising Nuri Al-Maliki after their Summit in Amman last Thursday!! His father Bush the first described Saddam as “our man” in 1983 after he, Saddam met “my friend- according to Saddam” Donald Rumsfield.. Bush the first was vice president then!!
The Bush’s first man managed to destroy the Iraqi society within years. He became Iraqi President in July 1979. Iraq was on the top of the developing countries heading quickly to be among the developed countries. The five year developing scheme was paid in advance; yet Saddam took the power with $48 billion surpass in the Iraqi Central Bank!! Within years and under his reign Iraq became on the bottom of the developing countries list with more than $330 billion debts!!
His designated was finished; he felt that. He pretended to be a “national hero” ; but there was no time and capacity while the Iraqis were starving because of the embargo (resolution 661- Security Council 1990).
Now, it is the role of the Bush’s second man.. Ahmed Chalabi and Ayad Allawi did their best through providing false documents to Bush who used it as a pretext toward invading- occupying- destroying Iraq. The both were trying to be “our man in Iraq”; yet Maliki became.. Although Chalabi is playing a big role in targeting the Iraqi intellectual trying to restore being the America “strong man” in Iraq; but they began refusing him..
Maliki is their man for many reasons: he is doing his best ignoring the death squads and Shiite militia in black; although he knows very well who is leading and commanding these deadly forces.
Maliki, Bush’s “man in Iraq”, who agreed on the demands of the Iranian directed the so called United Iraqi Coalition appointing Bayan Jabr Soulagh as the minister of the finance.. Soulagh was the minister of interior of Jaafari. He was and still the “hero” of the death squads and the torture secret centers. He created using electric drill as a unique torture instrument!!
Being a minister of the finance, Soulagh began achieving the second stage of the Iranian campaign toward controlling Iraq and keeping Bush far from Iran. The price of the dollar is coming down very quickly while the prices of the food stuff and fuel are heading up. The second stage against the Iraqis began last Saturday and still going on. The Iraqis who are being killing by the death squads will be killed by cold and starving if Iran and Soulagh will continue pumping dollars I the Iraqi markets..
Maliki is Bush the second man in Iraq; any body, could, deny now the bloody Bush’s scheme toward eliminating Iraq and Iraqis?

Abdul Aziz Al-Hakim denied saying, “Sunnis will loss more if a civil war begins”. Al-Jazeera first put this “statement after Al-Hakim met by King Abdullah of Jordan.. then the media networks began repeating it.. The spokesman of the Jordanian Royal Court denied the statement too.
Al-Hakim denied saying that a civil war will affect the whole Iraqis.
Personally, I do not respect Al-Hakim; yet one should be fair. It is not the first time Jazeera plays a role in inciting sectarian war in Iraq.. Hamad Al Thani, the Emir of Qatar, assured weeks ago while celebrating the tenth year of Al-Jazeera, “Jazzera is a strategic scheme”.. Every body knows; Al-Thani led a coup against his father who was refusing relations and links with Israel.. Al-Thani began open relations with Israel. Whenever there is a high-ranking Israeli official in Qatar; Al-Jazeera airs a videotape of Bin Laden or Al-Dhawahri.. So; I think it is clear now why Al-Jazeera is inciting a sectarian war in Iraq.

A Part Of The MISSION!!

The AMERICAN REAL MISSION in IRAQ

2006-11-29T14:46:00.000-08:00

To those who are still insisting to not believe the Iraqis.. Read the following very well. You will discover by your self the American MISSION in Iraq..
Iraq Mission Accomplished: They're Not Fighting Us Anymore, They're Fighting Each OtherAs chaos reaches all time high coalition prepares to scale back occupation and march onwards to Syria and Iran
Steve WatsonInfowars.netThursday, November 23, 2006
Death tolls in Iraq are hitting all time highs and the worst cases of sectarian violence of the entire war are rampant throughout the country. Amid the chaos, the government has declared that everything is going well enough in Iraq for forces to be withdrawn. This statement is accurate, the strategy has always been one of dissolution and destabilization. We are not "cutting and running" because the mission has been accomplished.
The AP is reporting:
In the deadliest attack on a sectarian enclave since the beginning of the Iraq war, suspected Sunni-Arab militants used three suicide car bombs and two mortar rounds on the capital's Shiite Sadr City slum to kill at least 150 people and wound 238 on Thursday, police said.
The Shiites responded almost immediately, firing 10 mortar rounds at the Abu Hanifa Sunni mosque in Azamiya, killing one person and wounding 14 people in an attack on the holiest Sunni shrine in Baghdad.
Sectarian fighting also broke in another part of northern Iraq on Thursday, when 30 Sunni insurgents armed with machine guns and mortars attacked the Shiite-controlled Health Ministry building.
The U.N. also this week reported that 3,709 Iraqi civilians were killed in October, the highest monthly toll of the war. More than 3,700 were killed, with hundreds "bearing signs of torture and execution-style killing", said the report.
If this isn't civil war then what is?

Meanwhile yesterday in Parliament, the British Foreign Secretary, Margaret Beckett, stated that the process of transferring security responsibilities to the Iraqi security forces is well under way. She said that she expected the coalition to hand over in Najaf province next month and in Maysan in January. Indeed, things were going so well in Basra that she had confidence that we may achieve transition in the spring.
The machinations of the Machiavellian's are unfolding according to plan. Let Iraq cascade into chaos and dilute the insurgency by manipulating it to become fractious and watch in-fighting ensue.
Top analysts in the CIA and State Department, as well as large numbers of Middle East experts, warned that a U.S. invasion of Iraq could result in a violent ethnic and sectarian conflict.
Stephen Zunes, professor of Politics and chair of the Peace & Justice Studies Program at the University of San Francisco, recently wrote,
"One of the long-standing goals of neoconservative intellectuals has been to see the Middle East broken up into smaller ethnic or sectarian mini-states, which would include not only large stateless nationalities like the Kurds, but Maronite Christians, Druze, Arab Shi'ites, and others. Such a policy comes not out of respect for the right of self-determination indeed, the neocons have been steadfast opponents of the Palestinians' desire for statehood, even alongside a secure Israel but out of an imperial quest for divide-and-rule. The division of the Middle East has long been seen as a means of countering the threat of pan-Arab nationalism and, more recently, pan-Islamist movements."
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said yesterday that The Iraq war is good for Israel. He praised God for President Bush and suggested that the current situation in Iraq is "so much better for the security and safety of Israel".

Of course it is, because the Zionist agenda has always been to divide and conquer the middle East. After many previous attempts, it's mission accomplished in Iraq now thanks to the neocons, that is why we have already seen a shift towards fomenting trouble in Syria with the decimation of Lebanon.
Furthermore, the timely assassination of Pierre Gemayel in Lebanon, which has been blamed on Syria, but some have attributed to Israeli intelligence, has again sullied Syria and stoked up ethnic and religious animosity in Lebanon.
Israeli policy documents have always stated that it would be beneficial to the overall strategy to engender strife in the middle east.
In 1982, Oded Yinon, an official from the Israeli Foreign Affairs office, wrote: "To dissolve Iraq is even more important for us than dissolving Syria. In the short term, it's Iraqi power that constitutes the greatest threat to Israel. The Iran-Iraq war tore Iraq apart and provoked its downfall. All manner of inter-Arab conflict help us and accelerate our goal of breaking up Iraq into small, diverse pieces."
Ethnic cleansing, maimed children and thousands of dead American soldiers are a small price to pay because for the Globalists the end always justifies the means and untold misery and bloodshed won't stand in their way.
The adoption of the 'Salvador Option' by the US in Iraq, as reported and discussed from the beginning of 2005 onwards, also indicates that a shift in focus in the middle east is underway.
Newsweek reported that this Pentagon or CIA handled operation "would even extend across the border into Syria, according to military insiders familiar with the discussions... The current thinking is that while U.S. Special Forces would lead operations in, say, Syria, activities inside Iraq itself would be carried out by Iraqi paramilitaries."
That agenda was again underscored recently when Daniel Pipes, a highly influential Straussian Neo-Con media darling, told the New York Sun that a civil war would aid the US and Israel because it would entangle Iran and Syria and enable those countries to be picked off by the new world empire without the need to sell a direct invasion to the public.
A host of analysts and political experts agree that 2007 will see the bombing of nuclear facilities in Iran, with or without the approval of the US Congress. This is not surprising given that we have recently seen a spate of neoconservative and Israeli calls for the bombing to begin.

In a Sunday op-ed piece in the Los Angeles Times, Joshua Muarvchik, resident scholar at the neoconservative American Enterprise Institute, wrote:
"We must bomb Iran," he said. "The path of diplomacy and sanctions has led nowhere ... Our options therefore are narrowed to two: we can prepare to live with a nuclear-armed Iran, or we can use force to prevent it."
Furthermore, a recent FOX news discussion on Iraq bizarrely turned to Iran as a Wall Street analyst sated:
"The market wants us to end the insurgency and the war. You do that by bombing Tehran, not by getting it so some Iraqi woman doesn't have to wear a burqa anymore."
Israeli Deputy Defense Minister Ephraim Sneh also "did not rule out' preventive military action to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, in a recent interview with the English-language Jerusalem Post.
There is some speculation that the paradigm shift in the US with the "Baker Boys" re-emerging as leading players, indicates a power struggle between a Zionist/neoconservative faction and a CFR controlled globalist faction. In any case, the overall agenda of "divide and conquer" in the middle east remains the same. The Arab population will suffer the same fate whatever the outcome of this sideshow in-fighting.
The scale back in Iraq will not in any way shape or form involve a "withdrawal" of troops from the region. Most probably any troops leaving Iraq will simply be shifted to Afghanistan, which also descends deeper into chaos with every day.
The Marine Corps will need to increase in size to sustain deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan and beyond. The empire is very much on the march.

The Story Explains Its Self!!

2006-11-29T14:25:00.000-08:00

Forwarded Message from the Institute of Near Eastern & African Studies (INEAS)
Near Eastern & African Studies wrote:
Although Iraqi Kurds who converted to Chrstianity have been a very small minority and have converted becaue of hatred (toward Arabs and Islam) AND for economics reasons, they will devote themselves under the umbrella of Christianity and Christ to turn the life of the majority to HELL, the way the converted (to Christianity) Vietnamese did in and outside Vietnam. After they killed their own people with the help of the USA and conducted espionage activities against them, they left Vietnam to live in the industrial west (especially in the USA) to become citizens with very little dignity and folklore, not-knowing-their heritage and money-making robotes. The Christian missionaries of the industrial west have converted 51% of the Buddhist followers in South Korea to Christianity, and when I interviewed a woman Buddhist there in 2005, she indicated that the main reason for their conversion to Christianity was financial. So Kurds are no better! She also said that the conversion to Christianity stopped when S. Korea's economy improved dramatically. Some have been even coming back to their Buddhist temples and Buddhist rituals.

More details about my visit to this Buddhist temple and interview with the Korean woman can be found at our Institute's website below by clicking on 'Special Reports'. It is part of a report I wrote about South Korea.

These few narrow-minded, full-of-hatred Kurds have been heard on National Public Radio, here in the USA, from as early as 2003 making negative and hateful remarks about Arabs and Islam and even stating that they (the Kurds) were originally Christians until the Arabs came and deformed/corrupted them with Islam! This is how little these Kurds know about their history. They (in general) didn't know even from where they originated until Harvard University (sponsor of the bloody Kanaan Makiyya) wrote their history for them and made it as ancient as that of Sumerians and Babylonians the way they did with the history of Iraq's Athoriyyeen and Lebanon's Maronites. So having a church by the missionaries of the USA-UK in Kurdistan is not surprising. This is how the USA-UK-Israel collaborative will deteriot their life and heritage and slain them like sheeps especially soon after they become weak and an easy target by forming their "independent country of Kurdistan". Many of these converts (to western Christianity) will come in handy for the deterioration and destruction process!

The status quo of the Islamic Republics that gained independence from the former Soviet Union offers volumes of information on why the near-future Kurdish independent state will deteriorate and harshly suffer. All of these republics became so-called independent because of the USA and all have become slaves of and prostitutes for the USA with high poverty, unemployment and corruption rates. So good luck to the Kurds for their churches and near-future independence! The minute the Kurds gain their independence, they will have to deal with the following fatal enemies; the USA, the UK, Israel, Turkey, Iran and Arab neighboring countries (especially IRAQ and Syria).

With Oceanic Luck!

Thanks To The Car Bomb

2006-11-22T04:51:00.000-08:00

I know thanking a car bomb could astonish you; yet today I really need to thank that driver who managed to sneak a car bomb into the Green Zone.. Until yesterday, those who are living in that fortified place were insisting to not feel what a car bomb means! They were in a place while the whole Iraqis were and still in another place.. Thanks to that car bomb that made so-called Iraqi government and Parliament, realize what life looks like with a car comb might explode any time. The different between them and the Iraqis is they stayed for 6 hours inside the offices while the Iraqis are going to their jobs and schools. To stay panic for 6 hours.. Again they proved how coward they are.. Now and after that car bomb finished the myth of the safe heaven, the Green Zone, I advice those who came on the board of the American tanks to destroy Iraq should live us. They should feel satisfy. They planted the sectarian and ethnic clashes among the Iraqis. They killed enough academics, journalists, teachers and 655 000 Iraqis. They stole billions of dollars. They destroyed the Iraqi memory through stealing the libraries and the giant Iraqi National museum. They worked for Bush in a way that Bush him self had never imagined. LEAVE US ALONE> WE COULD MANAGE OUR LIFE TOWARD RESTORING SECURITY AND IRAQ.

DRUNK Americans New MASSACRE In Heet

2006-11-09T22:15:00.000-08:00

An American occupation patrol forced in a house in Heet, about 210km west of Baghdad and killed seven members of the family in side the house yesterday. Early morning today Nov 8), another American patrol came to the same house apologizing from the mother because the soldiers of the yesterday patrol were drunk!! As simple as this.. one of the wounded in the hospital said that the Americans were angry and they killed the seven men by shooting stabbing and they went leaving the wounded bleeding.. today, the town which is seized by the Americans for the last two months; there is only one entrance to the town caught by the Americans too. For the last two months, the Americans searched the town many times; they know who is coming or leaving.. it was bombed heavily months ago then the Americans alleged that the Arab fighters (terrorists) left Ramadi to Heet..
Heet, one of the oldest Iraqi inhabitant towns; from there the Sumerians brought the tar to use it as a conjugation while building the ziqurates, palaces and houses. It was before the occupation one of the most beautiful and peaceful towns on the Euphrates where the huge water wheels were watering the fields.. The Baghdadis used to spend their weekends there; when living was possible in Iraq..
Seven Iraqis were killed by drunk Americans.. For almost 3000 Americans were killed on 9-11; Americans killed till now tens of thousands of Afghanis; 650 000 Iraqis and destroyed Iraq totally.. I asked and will continue asking: why the American’s life is more expensive than us? While we are the builder of the civilization; the Americans are the grandchildren of the gangsters and criminals who eliminated tens of thousands of the native Americans?.. Bush him self is not only a criminal; he is the real leader of the international mafia..
If a “drunk ‘ MOSLEM will kill an American; could you imagine the Bush war against terrorism where would be? Yey, according to this silly pretext; it seems that Bush is always DRUNK..
Damn Bush.. do you think those drunk criminals would be trailed and sent to death? Or they were defending them selves!!!!

Iraqis Between Mass Graves and Unknown Graves

2006-11-09T22:09:00.001-08:00

Only two days before the verdict of Saddam Hussein’s first trial, an international survey of public opinion published by Guardian showed Bush as the most dangerous man in the world; while inside USA he was losing support even from members of his own party. Yet the day after the trail, public opinion polls showed 53% from the voters pro Bush!! The Bush pro American media worked on” the sending Saddam to death” as if Bush saved Iraq and USA!!
Week before the midterm elections Saddam who has being updating by his defence team about the world out side the jail; feels the fact about Bush losing reputation very well, he asked the tribunal through his lead defence lawyer Khalil Al-Dulaimi to postpone the last session of his first trial, Al-Dujail case, after the half-term elections.. Al-Dulaimi sent a message in the same meaning to the American Democratic party; yet he received not response. The session was due on 16th October and was postponed to 5th November, reports assured, as it was required by Bush’s public relations consultants in the hope that the capital sentence on the Iraqi President and his top assistances will help the Republicans gaining more votes. It is clear now that Saddam trial was nothing but a political “game” between Bush’s hand played whenever he needs the Americans to sympathized with him; just like his game “the war against terrorism”..
Saddam committed crimes against humanity; yet how does the Rome Tribunal describe the situation in Iraq if it is not a crime against humanity generated a sectarian cleansing what it would be? Bush him self admitted invading Iraq according to false documents; he did not find WMDS or link with Al-Qaeda; his illegal war killed till now 625 000 civilian Iraqis; if this is not genocide and crime against humanity, what would it be? Saddam and Bush are on the same boat.
Whatever the half-term elections result would be; the situation in Iraq won’t change. An American anti-war friend mailed me asking to give her a proposal about Iraq but not withdrawing the US troops or apologizing from the Iraqis! She wrote saying, “although the democrats are criticizing Bush’s fatal faults in Iraq yet they will neither pull out the troops nor apologize; please give me another proposal; demanding pulling out our troops will make them looking at me as a traitor”!! if an anti-war activist is thinking in this way; the Iraqis should find a way to restore their lives. Americans are going to stay in Iraq; not only to give Americans a safer world; but to secure the need to the oil and to protect Israel, as Bush said in his latest campaigning speech. Inside Iraq, the capital sentence against Saddam showed the contradictory among the Iraqis; those in Tikrit- the birth place of Saddam, Al-Dour-w here he was arrested, Mosul, Baqouba, Haweeja-west Kirkuk and Anbar flooded the streets angrily raising Saddam’s photos while those in central and southern Iraq and the Kurds flooded the streets happily burning Saddam’s photos. In Baghdad, the Shiites area, Sadr City, Shua’la and others celebrated hanging Saddam till death; while Sunnis areas Adhamiya and others were angry. Making Bush satisfied; the Iraqis are being pushing toward a real civil war.. in the name of democracy, Iraqis are between mass graves and unknown graves seeing no light at the end of the tunnel they dragged in by Bush.

A Death of A Great Iraqi

2006-10-31T14:01:00.000-08:00

Yesterday morning we lost a great man: Dr Issam Al-Rawi, a geology scientist and in the same time a moderate Sunni who used to make the gap between the Sunnis and Shiites leading personalities smaller.
Just a while before being attacked, Al-Rawi was on TV interview urging the Iraqis to comply with Mecca Code leaving aside the sectarian violence. He was attacked in Al-Dawoodi neighborhood, west Baghdad, where his house is, shortly after leaving his home toward the Baghdad University. Two other profs were with him; the both were wounded. The attack took place yesterday morning (Oct 30). The killers blocked his way then began shooting him. (According to the eyewitnesses Al-Rawi who used to go every where without bodyguards; a white four wheel drive vehicle - Land Cruse 2004- almost used by the high-ranking officials in the ministry of the interior affairs and this vehicle is the “trade mark” of the Shiite death squads backed by the some high-ranking officers and officials inside the ministry; there were four persons in the car, the driver, one was protecting the other two who shot Al-Rawi and the car escaped in front of a National Guards check point toward Al-Mansour area. Many previous reports confirmed that the former minister of the interior, the minister of finance now, Bayan Jabr and the former Prime Minister Al-Jaafari, gave tens of such vehicles to the death squads.)

According to his friends and family, the Death Squads were after his assassination. But I think the following:
• The occupation forces and the “Iraqi” police special forces raided his office ( the League of the Iraqi Universities Profs) which was established by him to defend the profs rights and lives, on Oct 19 (the Iraqi police special forces are almost Shiites; many reports confirmed its links with death squads). He issued a communiqué on Oct 28 condemning the raid through which the doors were broken, the literary was messed; the office of Al-Rawi- the president of the league and his deputy office were searched. He finished the communiqué saying, “we are putting I front of the nobles in the world and the patriot Iraqis some of the acts of the alleged democracy and liberation.”
• He taught in Erbil University from the late eighties till April 2003; there he began relation with the Islamic Kurdish parties; he kept the relation till his martyrdom. (the two leading Kurdish parties PUK of Talbani and PDK of Barzani) have no good relation with the Islamist Kurds who are opposing the relation with US and Israel.
• Many parties in Iraq; especially Al-Qaeda and Mahdy army are trying to shut down the education system in Iraq, while Al-Rwai was insisting to go to the school of science- geology departments where he was a prof. (by the way the first PhD was given in geology in Baghdad University was given to Al-Rawi in the late seventies).
Those criminals who killed Al-Rawi, hit many birds by one stone:
They killed the most moderate voice in the Association of the Moslem Scholars; they killed a leading Sunni personality who used to visit and talk with the Shiite clerics and they killed the prof who led the league that used to defend them; i.e.; the whole profs are an open target.
by the killing of Al-Rawi, the toll of Iraqi profs and academics who were killed under the ocupation became 300!!
the painful thing is the WORLD is still wtching the Hell in Iraq without thinking even in saying a word of sorry to the Iraqis. What does the world waite for?

Bush does not HEAR; does not SEE but does SPEAk

2006-10-19T04:50:00.000-07:00

The prestigious British medical journal, The Lancet, published a study achieved by researchers from John Hopkins (American) and Al-Mustansiriya (Iraqi) universities, stated that more than 650,000 people have been killed in Iraq since March 20 2003, the date on which Bush began invading Iraq till now. The figures means that the U.S.-led war on Iraq, a country of about 27 million, which means that 2.5 per cent of the Iraqi 27 million population has died because of the invasion.President Bush denied the study saying in White House press conference, "I don’t consider it a credible report. Neither does General George Casey and neither do Iraqi officials"! According to Bush, the Iraqi civilian causalities are not more than 50 000, again according to him, they are collateral lost!! In his turn, Iraqi government spokesman Ali Al Dabbagh disagreed with the study saying in a press conference in the Green Zone; “The report is unbelievable. These numbers are exaggerated and not precise.”
Yet many Iraqis say that the figure might be bigger; they say that the sectarian violence flooded the country after explosion of the Samara golden dome last February. Since then, no less than 40 dead bodies are being found in Baghdad; black banners mourning those who are being tortured and killed are every where in Baghdad especially and other Iraqi cities in general. More than 50 000 un- identified dead bodies were buried in Najaf and other 46 000 un- identified dead bodies were buried in Kerbala, the two figures were announced by the official sources of the Iraqi ministry of health. Again according to a source from Baghdad morgue, the morgue was receiving 10-20 bodies every day, victims of the violence actions in Baghdad; yet after Samara the figure began growing day after other. The UN human rights committee said in its latest reports that 100 killed bodies received by the morgue every day in the last three months!! It seems that Bush does not hear or see; he does only speak.. He believes and tries to force the others to believe him.. Tens of the Iraqis are being killing every day; among them always are those who are being killed by the American friendly fires; still the World is watching silently waiting the end of the bloody American democracy action movie in Iraq! Because of the sectarian violence, 230 Sunni families were forced by Shiite militia to leave their homes in Al-Hurriya and Al-Shaab neighborhoods, west Baghdad last week; in the same time hundreds of Shiite families were forced to leave their homes from Al-Ghazaliya, Amiriya and other areas in Baghdad. According to the sources of the Iraqi ministry of education more than 10 000 students are being absence in Baghdad schools because of their families were forced to leave the area where their schools were; they could not go back to the school to have transfer documents; otherwise they will be killed!! Bush made Iraq drowned by the bloods of the Iraqis; yet he is insisting to mislead the American and world public opinion and he is managing it!! How much Iraqis will be killed more to satisfy Bush revenge feeling? "I will do it for my daddy", Bush announced in January 2003 speaking about his war against Iraq; "this man (Saddam) tried to kill my daddy", he said.. How long takes the sectarian violence in Iraq? Again, the sectarian and ethnic disputed among the Iraqis were planned by Bush and Paul Bremer the third, his viceroy in Iraq, while establishing the Governing Council on the sectarian and ethnic bases.

Rice: To Hell!!

2006-10-07T14:45:00.000-07:00

Rice is continuing her efforts to be white; to be Bush more than Bush him self, yet she will stay black.. Here I am not trying to be racist but Rice pushes me to think in this way; since she began her career as a top US official she behaves in a way shows being complicated being black and not pretty.. She found her life chance through being the shadow Bush the first.. Living with the bloody Bushes family; she discovered the privilege of being white and wealthy in the States. She is smart; yet she used her smartness in a very ugly way: to be against every body who is against the Bushes policy which is trying to destroy the world.
She was in Iraq in the last couple of days. She left her plane wearing body armor.. I hope that she felt through this heavy vest what her MASTER committed against Iraq and Iraqis. She came to say more lies and to commit more faults.. She admitted months ago that her Administration committed “THOUSANDS FAULTS IN IRAQ” yet neither she nor her master are ready to apologize from the Iraqis.
MRS RICE,
Iraqis hate you; hate your insane master. We think the wealth you did through our bloods is enough; are you after more oil tankers and ships? What ever you will do; you will stay un ugly black woman.. In your photo I chose; you are trying to open a door.. might you open it today; but you will never know what would be behind one day. Bushes will leave one day; you will stay a lonely woman with no more power to destroy Iraq and other countries.
No Iraqis will kiss you in the way Jalal Talbani did; you both have the same MASTER whom you both are serving.
The Iraqis know that Bush was and still after the daily blood baths in Iraq (Iraqis civilian victims are more than 1000 every month), they will never forget or forgive.
Rice go to hell.

9-11, Iraq Is Paying the PRICE

President Bush is still misleading the World and American public opinion emotionally through using the pretext (war against terrorism). In his speech broadcast on Monday , the fifth anniversary of 9/11, he played his emotion game to defend the war in Iraq, although many democratic politicians criticized him for politicizing a national day of mourning. He described a “brutal enemy still determined to kill Americans, perhaps with weapons of mass destruction if they get the chance”.
Reviewing the situation after 9/11, the day that changed the world, we will find that Iraq had paid and still the highest price. The whole country and state was destroyed becoming the “first front on the war of terrorism” as Nouri Al-Maliky, the Iraqi Prime Minister confirmed while visiting US weeks ago.
The Baghdad morgue announced receiving 1458 shout dead bodies last August, (the number indicates the civilians victims in Baghdad only).. Al-Sabah, the government supported IMN daily, quoted the general inspector of the ministry of health on August 13 saying that the victims of the violence in Baghdad reduced 50% in August!! Maj. Gen. William B. Caldwell wrote in the same meaning saying, “However, the violence Baghdad endured in July receded during the month of August. Attacks in Baghdad were well below the monthly average for July. Since August 7, the murder rate in Baghdad dropped 52 percent from the daily rate for July.”
The two statements could give a clear view on the civilian victims of violence in Baghdad only since no official and non-official institutes in Iraq and US are ready to give the accurate number of the civilian casualties in Iraq. So, 1458 shot dead bodies in August were the 50% of the causalities in July!!
Although the intelligence committee of the Congress issued their latest report last week confirming that there was no relation between Saddam Hussein regime and Al-Qaeda, Bush is still speaking about “enemies” in Iraq “will attack the Americans”!! Iraq, the Bush pretext toward defending his alleged war against terrorism, instead of becoming a symbol of democracy became a symbol of a destroyed and weak state could be divided any time if the Bush backed Kurds continue their plans in having Kirkuk, the oil rich city, as the capital city for their “region”, the step that incites the Shiites to establish their region in the central and southern Iraq. The national Accord Front, Sunnis, that gave the Kurds their word in supporting establishing their northern region are refusing the establishment of the Shiite region and threatened to stop supporting Kurds if they will support the Shiite project. The other Sunnis in the Iraqi Parliament, and Iriqiya bloc, led by Ayad Allawi, and Shiite parties with in the United Iraqi Alliance, led by Abdul aziz Al-Hakim, are refusing the Shiite project.
The Sunnis who participated in the political process on the condition of re writing the Constitution are insisting on their condition otherwise they will withdrew from the political scene. The Iraqi constitution does not allow establishing regions on ethnic and sectarian basis, yet the Kurds are insisting on their demands and going ahead in their plans especially after their Parliament finished writing their constitution insisting on having Kirkuk.. Iraq is going from worse to worse; the Parliament involved in discussing the Shiite project and the Barzani’s decree of not raising the Iraqi flag in “Kurdistan”. So, Iraq is paying the price with out having any relation with the “terrorists” who targeted US.. Till when Bush will mislead the world? No body could answer..

Bush, TERRORISM and Iraq

2006-09-19T08:21:00.000-07:00

In his latest speech regarding his war on “terrorism”, President George Bush repeated what he was telling in his previous speeches, attacking Islam and Moslems all over the world and swearing to win the war in Iraq otherwise the war would be in the American streets. He considers winning the war in Iraq as the most important step in his global war against terrorism; no matter the disaster brought in to Iraq that kills more than 1500 civilian Iraqis every month in the last six months while no body knows the real number of the civilian causalities in Iraq from April 9 2003 till now.
Although Bush failed in finding a direct or indirect relation between Saddam Hussein and Al-Qaida; yet he is still trying to play emotionally on the American public opinion which is misled by the mainstream media news about what could terrorism would commit against the Americans. Let Iraqis die every day to give the American a safety world.
In Iraq, the situation is going from worse to worse while the visiting Iraqi vice president to America Adil abdul Mahdy and his American hosts assured that there is no civil or sectarian war in Iraq! In one week 120 Shiite families were forced to leave their houses in Al-Quds neighborhood, north Baghdad, and almost the same numbers of Sunni families were forced to leave their houses from different areas in Baghdad. Those who left their houses, Sunnis and Shiites, are saying that they received a hand written message ordering them to leave the area with a bullet as a singe while refusing they will be killed; Killings between Sunnis and Shiites are now more numerous and more lethal than attacks on occupation forces. The Prime Minister Nuri Al-Maliky who is trying his best through his reconciliation intuitive to stop the daily blood bath; yet many serious problems are being facing him without finding a solution. The general services reached the almost the zero level while the insecurity is seizing the Iraqis inside the houses before the sundown. Many Baghdadi areas are under joint Iraqi and American military siege for the last week; the Parliament postponed its first session after the summer holiday because the majority of its members are not back from the vacation out side Iraq!! Midst these problems Masoud Barzani, the President of Iraqi Kurdistan region, issued a decree to take down the Iraqi flag in the whole region creating another serious problem for the central government. While maliky demanded rising the Iraqi flag all over Iraq, Barzani said that the Kurds chose staying with in Iraq by their own decision yet the Iraqi flag that he labeled as Saddam flag won’t raise in the northern Iraq again and instead the region will raise the July 14th 1958 flag!! Many Arab politicians became angry but no Kurdish response!! The Iraqi Kurdish President Jalal Talbani supposedly ruling Iraq under the so labeled Sadadm flag, Hoshiar Zibari, the Iraqi Kurdish minister of foreign affairs, is representing Iraq under the same flag. It seems that Barzani who is doing his best toward having the oil rich Kirkuk; began his strength shows from now till the supposed referendum regarding Kirkuk by the half term of the coming year. It is obvious that he will not hear any body except him self while exchanging roles with Talbani who declared the Iraqi flag that will be chosen by the Parliament will be raised all over the country!! Talbani in his turn responded angrily to Ayad Allawi, the former transitional prime minister who announced from Amman that the Higher National Council for Security is doing no thing.. Talbani said that the council is working but Allawi is not in Iraq. Barzani refusing the Iraqi flag ‘because under this flag the Kurds were gassed and killed” and he is pretending to forget that under the same flag Saddam forces rescued him and his forces from Talbani forces that were occupying Erbil in August 1996.
While Iraq has fallen apart; blood and tears are every where; Kurds are playing for their own internists; Abdul Aziz Al-hakim is continuing educating the Iraqi Shiites toward establishing their federal region in the southern Iraq; Turkmen members in Kirkuk city council boycotted the council protesting the new normalization committee established with out discussing with Turkmen parties; far from these disputes, the Iraqis are paying very high prices for the Bush false dream to create a democratic, pro-American (and pro-Israeli) federal state; but the fact is Bush and his team and Iraqi collaborators destroyed Iraq, the country used to play a great role in the region pushing it toward violent instability which threatens to infect the whole region.
Back to Bush speech on terrorism; while there is no a certain definition of terrorism and according to UN, US Patriot Act and Iraqi Act on terrorism, the terrorism is killing civilians, no body is killing the civilians in Iraq and else where except Bush through his faults.

2006-07-05T17:19:00.000-07:00

hear the song in the link below and see the photos, then ask your self: WHY?
are the Americans worthy, of course not all the Americans, there are very noble Americans who are suffering from Bush the second in the way the whole World does- sorry my noble American friends- and back to the question:
are the Americans worthy to have a safer world through the Iraqi children pain and mother's agony? is there anything in the World worthy while the price is a child, any child?
during the injust bloackade impossed on Iraqby the Bush the first, Clonton and Bush the second, more than 750 000 Iraqi children under five; during the bloody Bush invasion under the ongoing occupation no body knows how many Iraqi children were and still bein killing.. Are Iarqi children the American's enemy? are the iraqi children terrorists?
No TERRORIST on the EARTH except BUSH
