Field data "false" postponed Emancipation Proclamation of Mosul 3 times

 Baghdad / Wael blessing 
 

While Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi arrived, on Sunday, to Mosul it was planned to read a statement from victory there, but fell in the last hours, and held instead talks with military leaders and the governor.

Officials say in Mosul , close to the head of government and political parties, the latter received the wrong information about the situation on the ground, which is not time that mislead the leader, according to those authorities. 
It is expected to be a competition for the monopoly of victory, political forces and some military formations, is persuaded Abadi to come to the city and the declaration of liberation, before being restored all areas of Daesh. 
At that time , a squad had arrived at the edge of the river, which is the last point in the old city, but other areas were still , however , the organization, which is the prime minister and surprised him to postpone the liberation statement. 
" The general commander", who is still in the area close to Mosul, in the tweets on Twitter in English, upon arriving to Mosul right coast that he came "to declare liberation." In contrast other information indicating that it was ready to declare victory for him, since last Saturday, but a violation has occurred in the "Tal Afar" has held the position. This represents a breach, the exit of a leadership for "Daesh" from the city Ringed months ago, towards Syria, before flying to intervene to control the situation. 
It was supposed, according to information, begin to break into "Tal Afar" process immediately after declaring victory in Mosul, this Madf some quarters to believe that the international coalition, he had some arrangements before the assault, and he put pressure on al - Abadi to postpone the declaration of liberation. Until the moment there are still hundreds of square meters in the old city, defended by the "Daesh" fiercely, and includes a number of parents and families of the organization. 
Says Hossam Alabbar, a member of the Nineveh provincial council, he said that "anti - terrorism forces have orders to deal with the caution that region, even with women and children armed." 
And barricaded the organization in the areas of "Kleiaat" and "Shahwan", and used children as human shields, while confirming Alabbar, through contact with (range) yesterday that " the fight against terrorism can not use heavy projectiles because of the presence of a number of civilians and children in the region , " asserting that " fighting Adorahalaa small arms. " 
The estimated local administrator of that region with an area of some 250 square meters is concentrated inside gunmen Ross, expected that the prime minister announced the complete liberation during the next two days. 
The Prime Minister Haider al - Abadi visited Mosul Sunday, praised the achievement of the "great victory", but pointed to the delay "final victory" declaration of respect for those who are still fighting. Ebadi said that "victory is settled, and the remains of Daesh trapped in recent Alochaabar, and it is a matter of time to announce to our people a great victory." 
In turn , the commander said in the fight against terrorism forces , Lieutenant - General Sami Arda, yesterday, said that there was a "strong clashes in the old city, and that the militants organize Daesh do not accept to surrender themselves." Among the militants Arda organization , spoke to Iraqi forces loudly , "what we take , we are want to die." 

 Why did not declare victory? 
The military operations have been resolved last Saturday, according to some military leaders, and everyone is ready to declare victory, Abadi arrived after one day, but he did not receive speech editing. 
He says deputy close to the prime minister that "military forces had been informed that al - Abadi military client had ended, so he went to Mosul." He adds MP, who spoke (range) on condition of anonymity, "Eventually the information were not accurate, and Mosul have not been fully liberated." MP who is familiar with and asserts that " the third time by the end of the Abadi fighting within days, and is preparing to go to declare victory and then postpone his visit to another time." 
The military operations, since its launch last February, has seen identifying 5 conflicting timing to declare victory, and attributed the deputies to Nineveh that "some private military leaders to declare victory." 
The first division commander of the anti - terrorism forces, Lieutenant - General Abdul Wahab al - Saadi, had been lifted last Sunday, the Iraqi flag on the bank of the Tigris River near the old bridge. But "Daesh was still present to the west of the region and continues to fight, and believes Hossam Alabbar said , " the team Saadi had rushed to raise the flag. " 
The Sami Arda, the leader in the fight against terrorism, that his forces possess information that" three thousand to four thousand civilians "are present in the region." Abadi and wandering in the liberated areas of Mosul Bassahali the right and the left, as welcoming slogans and victory was received by the population. Prime Minister also held meetings inside the Baghdad Operations Command, visited the conservative Novell Akub, while reluctant to visit the provincial council. 
He says the provincial council member , said , "Abadi is not satisfied with the performance of the Council, as he believed that some members are supporters of the organization Daesh." 

In breach of Tal Afar 
and visit Abadi, a member of the provincial council, who asked not to be named because of the sensitivity of information indicates, that Abadi "received false information about the situation in Mosul , which is Madfh to attend there." 
The local official said the "commanding general did not leave Mosul, pending the resolution of the battle and the declaration of a statement of victory," he said in an interview with the (range) yesterday that "Abadi is located in an area close to Mosul." 
In contrast , the local administrator is likely that other reasons may be prevented without declaration of a statement of victory. He says that "was ready to declare victory on him since last Saturday, but the escape of great leaders belonging to the organization Daesh of Tal Afar , despite the encirclement, had postponed it." 
He revealed near the official theater of operations . "In that day Air Alliance intervention to prevent the arrival of leaders to Syria , " adding that " the government was want to edit Tal Afar immediately after declaring victory in Mosul." 
It is believed a member of the Council of Nineveh that "perhaps the international coalition is convinced Abadi to postpone the declaration of liberation is complete lack of preparations in Tal Afar." 
The political parties confirmed earlier, that the United States and Turkey hinder the liberation " of Tal Afar , " while the Abbasid squad combat announced yesterday, the issuance of orders from the Iraqi government to participate in the liberation of the judiciary. 
So beautiful criticized al - Obeidi, an MP for Nineveh, the government 's role in the relief to the displaced, saying that "victory is calculated joint forces and not for any political party." 
Believes al - Obeidi, in a statement made by the (range) yesterday that "political competition for the monopoly of victory, is Maattl Abadi for Emancipation Proclamation."

ERBIL, Kurdistan Region (Kurdistan24) – The United Nations representative in Iraq on Monday congratulated the people of Iraq for the liberation of Mosul, tempering celebrations by stating much work is left ahead for Iraqis to fully recover.

On Monday, in a televised speech, Prime Minister of Iraq Haider al-Abadi officially announced the complete liberation of Mosul, the second-largest city in Iraq occupied by the so-called Islamic State (IS) in June 2014.

The UN Special Representative of the Secretary-General (SRSG) for Iraq Ján Kubiš in a statement welcomed the victory and expressed it provides an opportunity for Iraq “to rise again, strong and united.”

He mentioned that although Mosul has been liberated from the jihadist group, the fight against terrorism is not over in the country. “More work lies ahead for Iraq on its road to full recovery and lasting peace.”

“This is a historic victory for Iraq and the world and a resounding defeat for Daesh and terrorism, signaling their end. The nightmare that the people of Mosul have endured for three years is over. Mosul is finally free. The terrorist Daesh’s so-called Caliphate, ushering in an unprecedented reign of terror, is in the final convulsions,” Kubiš added.

Mosul's military operation began mid-October 2016 and had lasted over eight months.

“The credit goes first and foremost to the Iraqis themselves. Heroism and martyrdom of the Iraqi Security Forces, the Popular Mobilization Forces, the Peshmerga, and tribal units, with the military backing of the International Coalition, were instrumental in achieving this victory."

"The price has been very high, but for Iraq, the unity of the people and the country has been at stake. By jointly destroying Daesh in Mosul the people of Iraq have sent a resounding message that they see their future together,” the UN official stated.

He praised the Iraqi forces and Abadi for their efforts in protecting civilians while crushing IS in the city. “Their efforts have been exceptional.”

Mosul has been severely damaged by clashes between the Iraqi forces and IS as well as the US-led coalition airstrikes. The UN official states that much work is left in terms of recovery and promoting peace and stability in the area.

“Much work lies ahead for Iraq on its road to full recovery. In addition to restoring security and the rule of law to the liberated areas, the immediate priority is for accelerated stabilization efforts to enable the millions of civilians who have fled the fighting across the country to voluntarily and safely return to their homes and restart their lives, to be followed by reconstruction,” Kubiš continued.

“The massive humanitarian work should run parallel to a robust political process to conduct elections and achieve national and societal reconciliation and rebuild the social fabric in order to ensure justice, dignity and sustainable peace for the future generations.”

He mentioned that the road ahead would be “fraught with challenges” for the Iraqi people until they fully recover and bring sustainable peace in liberated areas.

[mr.unlikely]

Well now Hoo-fn-ray! I guess it's now official. Mosul fully liberated, well mostly fully liberated, enough to say so. Just read about a bunch of US military bases being built in the ME. An avalanche always starts with the first stone. Let's hope this one is the diamond 💎 in the rough. We could be waiting months to see what we want to see, but I hope it's only weeks. Abadi is definitely doing his part, now we need the big three credit ratings agencies to do their part and liberate their sovereign credit rating so that the CBI can liberate their exchange rate and it'll be the hap hap happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby danced with Danny Fn Kaye!

It will be like in The Wizard of Oz. When the Black and White turns to color and we all start to follow the golden brick road. I will take a heart and courage, since my X says I'm a coward. Rather be a coward than a liar a thief and some other choice words.
