Baghdad News, on Friday, the text of a letter addressed to Massoud Barzani of the Kurdish people, as follows text of the letter.

Statement by the President of the Kurdistan Region 
In the name of God the Merciful The 
masses of Kurdistan The beloved Kurdistan 
Kurdistan Outside 
the world public opinion 

After the people of Kurdistan and peacefully expressed their opinion in the determination of its destiny is a natural right for every people and nationality, today our people suffer from the threat and siege and collective punishment, With all its might and under the pretext of imposing the law by punishing a people who expressed their opinion and did not commit any crime. 

This is a violation of all the borders, laws and customs, which is a clear violation of the Iraqi constitution. The government wants to impose its vision and will on our people by plotting and mobilizing the counter-forces and the power of arms to break their will and dignity. More than 150 thousand.

Therefore, we address the consciences of the peoples of the world, the public opinion supporter of freedom and all the intellectuals in the whole world, to support the people of Kurdistan and to stand in the face of the genocide attempts that the Iraqi government threatens our people and prevent a new disaster against the people of Kurdistan and pressure their governments and decision-makers to intervene against this. The injustice inflicted upon the people of Kurdistan, where the governments and their interests have forgotten the sacrifices made by the people of Kurdistan and the Peshmerga forces in the war against the terrorists, advocated and fought this terrorist organization and stood on its behalf on behalf of the whole world and presented thousands of martyrs and wounded in fierce battles for the Confidentiality and humanity. Therefore, I ask everyone to stand up against these attacks, crimes of murder, abuses and deportations of citizens, which are practiced by the Iraqi government through its militias and forces with external instructions and cooperation with forces from outside Iraq against Kurdistan.

We also call upon all Kurdistanians residing in Europe and the United States to organize peaceful demonstrations and civic activities to support our people and to demand from the peoples of these countries where they live to stop this war and the siege imposed on our people. I hope that they will take the voice of the oppressed people of Kurdistan and the message of peace from our people to the peoples of the world. .

Baghdad News -

 

 

The newspaper 'Arabs' London, in a report published on Thursday, the echo of the Kurdish referendum held by the Kurdistan region to serve the Prime Minister Haider Abadi at the political level, and expected fierce competition between Abadi and Nouri al-Maliki in the elections, indicated that the alignment behind Abadi will not Continue. 

The newspaper said in its report that 'the referendum conducted by the Kurds of Iraq on the independence of their territory, and the subsequent events ended in the restoration of Baghdad to a number of disputed areas, most notably Kirkuk oil-rich, served a great political service to Iraqi Prime Minister Haider Abadi, who won the honor of preserving the territorial integrity To Iraq after he was the hero of the liberation of its regions of the organization of the preacher '.

She added that these two factors will provide great support for Abadi to renew his term at the head of the Iraqi government during the upcoming elections scheduled for the spring of 2018 and support him to stand up to fierce rivals from within his Shiite political family, the first of which is Nuri al-Maliki, former prime minister and leader of the Islamic Dawa Party Belongs to Abadi himself. ' 

"Despite the great influence that Maliki still has in Iraq and derives from his arms extended within the organs of the state and from his alliance with senior leaders of the Shiite factions, most notably the leader of the Badr Organization Hadi al-Ameri, but his rival to the prime minister became more difficult with the accumulation of achievements calculated within The last and most recent restoration of Kirkuk.

She pointed out that 'Maliki will face in the competition Abbadi paradox shocking and visible to the fact that the preacher occupied more than a third of the territory of Iraq under his rule, and the Kurds of the country have extended the borders of their territory outside what is known as the limits of 2003 in the same era. While liberating from urging and returning the Kurds to their old border in the era of Abbadi '. 

"It is not only that Maliki's task in competing for the post of prime minister, but also what is wearing his political reputation is the responsibility for the weakness and decline that hurt the Iraqi state in various sectors and areas, and corruption that permeated the various joints, during his two terms of government Which extended from 2006 to 2014 and ended with the collapse of the Iraqi armed forces and the control of the organization calling on large areas in northern Iraq and west to the outskirts of the capital Baghdad and some of its southern suburbs in Babil province.

"In the past few days, Iraqi forces have entered the disputed areas between the Kurds and the central government and pushed the Kurdish Peshmerga forces to the pre-invasion borders of the country in 2014 without a military confrontation except for some skirmishes, Limited of the dead and wounded among the Kurdish forces, the Iraqi political front appeared fully unified behind the decision Haider Abadi to recover Kirkuk and other areas'.

The newspaper pointed out in its report that 'the Shiite forces and figures, including Nuri al-Maliki, showed support for the Prime Minister's decision and provided him with the political and media cover, in order to participate in the achievement on the one hand, and aligned, on the other hand, and Iran, The hands of the Kurds, because the fact that Tehran is like Ankara is directly concerned with the establishment of the Kurdish state in its infancy because if it is born, it will not delay in claiming the lands of the Kurds in Iran, Turkey and Syria. 

However, the Shiite forces showed their rupture between the support of Abadi and the fear of the rise of political shares, and went to criticism and bidding by accusing him of a lack of firmness towards Kurdish leaders who supported the referendum, led by the President of the Kurdistan region of Iraq Massoud Barzani, demanding him to arrest and trial.

"The line-up behind Abbadi will not last long as the Shiite political family is expected to resume their escalating anxieties as the election approaches. And are preparing to resume the battle over the composition of the Electoral Commission, which had begun recently, but the events of Kirkuk blocked and put them down until '. 

"The Iraqis argue that the rise to power in Iraq is not dependent on programs, policies and achievements, as it is the result of internal consensus and external transactions, which since 2003 Iran has been a key party. However, Tehran can not bet on a losing horse, but on a reliable party, and so far Haider al-Abadi, who has tested him in the case of Kurdish independence and seems to have passed the test.

Thanks yota!

 

They called Maliki Abadi’s rival for the PM position several times in this article. I thought Maliki wasn’t eligible according to their constitution, or is this just a translation issue ..?

The Kurdish leader said that a secret agreement signed between Maliki and Barzani stipulates that Maliki get a percentage of Kurdish oil smuggled, and be a partner with the Barzani family in the proceeds of oil smuggling, either from Kirkuk or the region in exchange for allowing the expansion of the Peshmerga in the disputed areas, and that gave a pledge Barzani has joined Kirkuk in Kurdistan and turned a blind eye to the impoverishment of the main neighborhoods of the oil-rich city. 

The source pointed to leaks of a private dialogue between Barzani and Maliki in 2010, in which the latter said that the western region of Iraq does not mean much, and that he is sure that Anbar, Nineveh, Diyala and Kirkuk will not be under the control of Baghdad, and that he is willing to give up those areas, To choose any area to be included in Kurdistan in exchange for the Kurds support system" rel="">support Maliki in keeping him at the head of the executive authority in Iraq,

A leader in the National Alliance said that Maliki is in a state of hysteria because of political gains achieved by Abadi, and that he was disappointed with any victory in the upcoming elections due to the broad popularity of Abadi as a result of his skill in dealing with the referendum crisis and his success in restoring the disputed areas, Without armed clashes with the Peshmerga.

The source, who preferred to keep his name to avoid embarrassment, that Maliki continues contacts with Iranian leaders in search of an opportunity to restore some of the presence in the Iraqi Shiite circles, seeking the leader of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his adviser Qassem Soleimani support system" rel="">support in the upcoming elections, The existence of an international conspiracy to postpone the elections and keep Abbadi two more years in office.

The source said Maliki asked Kassim Soleimani if Iran would continue to support system" rel="">support Abadi and provide a basket of gains to the Iraqi prime minister to ensure his political future? How is Iran's support system" rel="">support for Abadi balanced with Turkish and American support system" rel="">support? Sulaimani replied: "Ebadi managed the crisis with the mentality of the state man and achieved a rare state of balance between all parties, and he deserves all of their support system" rel="">support."

 

I think better if Mr. Donald Trump and Mr. Haider Abadi read this important article.

October 22, 2017 

Around 8 p.m. on Oct. 15, an Iranian general from the powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) accompanied by Iraqi Commanders Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis and Hadi al-Ameri sat down with the Kurdish commanders in Kirkuk.

The IRGC commander, known only by his surname, Eqbalpour, who works closely with Quds Force chief Qasem Soleimani (pictured), told the Kurds to give up the city peacefully. “If you resist, we will crush you and you will lose everything,” the general warned the peshmerga commanders, a source with intimate knowledge of the meeting told Al-Monitor.

The Kurdish leadership had turned down repeated requests by Soleimani to cancel the Sept. 25 independence referendum, to his indignation. The peshmerga commanders who had fought Saddam Hussein’s army alongside Soleimani and other IRGC commanders in the 1980s knew that the Quds Force commander would take his revenge. After consulting with the top Kurdish leadership, the peshmerga commanders told Eqbalpour that they would not give up Kirkuk.

The Iranian commander took out a map of the area and spread it out in front of his Kurdish counterparts. “This is our military plan. We will hit you tonight from three points — here, here and here,” the Quds Force officer stated, and then left the meeting with his entourage.

Not far from the main Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) building in Kirkuk, where the meeting took place, a group of American military advisers sat at the sprawling K1 air base. The soldiers would keep their silence as Soleimani and the Iraqis orchestrated the attacks on Kirkuk. One Kurdish official even suggested that there must have been an international agreement to launch such a coordinated strike. The Kurds were in for a big surprise.
