Farewell to twilight ... candidness of history

 2019/12/31 00:23:10

A- A A +

For the beginning of a new chapter in work and life, the old form and formula are completed, but this time without there being an upcoming chapter, we say: Farewell, O (twilight), so that the meaning of the word between peoples is realized in the sense of the appearance of the sun and its reversal in its absence.

It was said in the past that the disease that forces a person to silence is more painful than that which forces him to scream. Waving hopes and promises kept us for years behind closed doors. We cannot evade a decision to end the 16-year life of (Shafaq) as our last option, as other avenues do not fit our opinions and ideas.

Now, it is not us (the filion) who shut down (Twilight). With the standard of steadfastness and years of work, we have proven that those who claim the Faili are excited need to review the formula in which they see things.

It is only natural that any revolution, movement or activity that is permanent and in need of expenses does not exceed the need for material and moral support. The collapse and failure of revolutions does not necessarily mean that all of them are illegal.

The important point in talking about the peculiarities of (Shafaq) is that, for 16 years, she has been walking in the media march in this country and remains committed to her own approach, as she did not go out of public morals and did not forget the principles of professional work.

Shafak News has also become a source of news for years, the media, officials and political parties, government institutions, the elite segment and all international news agencies, knowing its identity, dealing with it as a reliable source of news. At the same time, according to her affiliation and work policy, it is only natural that people have identified her supporter as well! Unfortunately, they were wrong with what they went to! It must be said that (Shafaq) has not received years ago neither a grant nor a little financial support, but it has nevertheless remained consistent with its approach and mission on which it was founded.

We say it for history: In the past, according to the basis of the belief in national justice and the policy of supporting and providing aid to our national strata, the former President of the Kurdistan Regional Government, Mr. Nechirvan Barzani, saw this institution related to the Faili Kurds as a national and sustainable project. His sovereignty was pure intention through the governmental grant provided by the Kurdistan Regional Government during the years (2004 - 2014). The belief that support for the Kurdish segments, whether outside the region or within the region, established a firm policy and firm commitment, but the undesirable events of cutting the budget of the Kurdistan Region by Baghdad, the ISIS war, and the arrival of nearly two million displaced people to Kurdistan, were reasons that prevented it from continuing to provide this grant.

Other than talking about that past and noticing those facts, again and forever, we are grateful for the support and previous aid provided by Mr. Nechirvan Barzani in addition to our national leader, Mr. Masoud Barzani, who was in the establishment of the institution the largest moral supporters.

And now, after the majority of those problems have ended, the Kurdistan Region has knocked on the door in 2020, Kurdistan as the only supporter of material and moral years ago, government and political and national parties, but they all turned their back on the only media center of the Faili Kurds, so today is more like the yesterday in which we closed the "Kurdish House "The only radio is on the date of our Kurdish filipino slide - Shafaq - and the rest of the publications are from newspapers and magazines.

By virtue of the peculiarities that the Shafaq Foundation carries in terms of professional and national dimensions, the title and the imprint of an authentic Kurdish segment, it is necessary to point out a number of points:

- In Iraq there are at the very least digital (digital) media institutions on the number of political parties and they are not less than hundreds of digital media institutions, and according to Google's criteria for the list of trusted news websites and it is a party that provides assessments, Shafaq News and the guide are located in the first rows between media institutions Iraqi.

- According to the prevailing standards and realism in the field and the specificity of the well-known Kurdish policy and strategy, a media institution with this specificity, goals and experience as a pity in Baghdad should have had a short life ! Today, after 16 years of continuous work, I have proven that the expectations and opinions were not correct. According to the peculiarities, Shafak News, as the last active department in the largest Kurdish filet media institution, and despite the financial crisis and hostility by the chauvinist thought and the opponents of the existence of media supportive of Kurdish policy, without submitting to the influence of ideas and anti-nationalist and even sectarian politics, its media influences outside Kurdistan and among other than The Kurds were more than Kurdistan itself.

A long time ago, there were a large number of sites, pages, and channels, with the support of the electronic armies, which were free to defame and spend on raising problems. They transferred the politics of war and their threats towards the media's horizons. The Kurds do not notice, for example, that this policy and the threat to a regionally influential country with 70 media centers with wide potential inside Iraq! The Kurds suffering in this country do not have a quarter of this number of centers directed outside the region.

In the past and present, what has been said about the issue of the Faili documentaries is not without their commitment and humanistic view of work and life. Amid an environment of racism and chauvinism, the elephants were not far from a pure and clean feeling, and according to the great tragic documents of the official genocide that our Kurdish people were subjected to, that tragedy began with them first.

In the New Testament, when more than 40 explosions occur in the vicinity of Shafak, and when the political and national project in the difficult and complex environment of Baghdad has not progressed according to what we want and wait for, until many things have changed, the identity and influence of Shafak have not changed in the silence of those years.

With the continued moral support of the concerned national parties, but this alone is not enough and without financial support for us, this matter can only be one explanation for our case that our efforts and services of our segment have been dispensed, so no importance is attached to our materially costly rights.

Therefore, in order not to make the news of the lack of confidence of this segment of our people (the Faili Kurds) Mancheta broad, we announce the end of (Shafaq) which is at the top of its levels of work. After years of waiting, in addition to the penalty of lack of support, we do not want us to be punished for the charge of steadfastness.

Not for 16 years of work tirelessly, but forever, thank you to all the people who encouraged us to give birth to (twilight), thanks to those who made (twilight) a young age big business, and became lovers not affiliated, and to the last stations are partners in ideas, the road and collaborators, not handicapped. Wherever they are and wherever they go, the head of their nationality will remain up, thanks to all who suffer for their people, and know the colors of the tortures of the Faili Kurds. Just as our present generation of Faili believers in the Kurdish issue wishes to live in that past, in which the immortal Barzani used to heal the wounds of his people with his hands. Goodbye

Ali Hussain Filly Chairman of the Board of Directors of Shafaq Foundation
