Dear President George Bush,
On behalf of myself, the Kurdistan National Congress, the Western
Kurdistan Government, the Kurdish masses and the Kurdish and non
Kurdish organisations allied with us, I send you greetings and
respect and express some fears regarding a dark future for your
policies in the Middle East:
1- After liberation of Iraq by your armies and the allied forces you
delivered the power to one of your worst enemies in the world, the
Shiites who regard you as the greatest Satan.
2- You have being very lenient with the question of the Iranian
nuclear affair to the extent that Iran and its President Mahmoud
Ahmadi Nejat are talking as if they are the biggest superpower in
the world and challenging you and the whole West. |
Dr Jawad Mella
President of the Kurdistan National Congress |
3- Your lenient policy towards the Syrian Alawite regime which
assassinated the former Lebanese President Rafiq El-Hariri along
with other Syrian, Lebanese and Kurdish personalities such as Dr
Muhammad Ma’shuq Khaznawi, has made this regime even more extreme in
its support for terrorist movements.
4- Today the Shiite Hezbollah in Lebanon is stronger than the
Lebanese government.
5- The same mentioned policies brought a terrorist organisation such
as Hamas to power in Palestine.
6- The same factors also made Turkey more and more Islamist and
farther from being an ally to the West, and to refuse American
suggestions such as recently declining an American base on the Black
Sea.
7- I think that the axis of evil is getting more powerful and spread
in the Middle East, and today with your policies it covers the
Shiite Iran and Iraq to the Alawite Syria, the Lebanon of Hezbollah,
and Palestine of Hamas. This axis is allied with Russia and China,
and other countries. The fact that countries like Saudi Arabia and
the Gulf states have more than 40% population of Shiites makes me
fearful that with support of the axis of evil they would overthrow
the regimes there. Also the Islamists are carrying out terrorist
acts in countries allied to you to change their regimes and make
them satellites for the axis of evil as the recent explosions in
Egypt show.
8- On the other hand there is a force in the Middle East that
represents a huge population of people that have been deprived for
the past century from any kind of national, democratic and human
liberties. This force we think is your ally and a part of the axis
of good in the Middle East, this force is that of the Kurdish people
with the population of 40 million that awaits your support to be
your ally against the axis of evil because it is the only force in
the area with the potential for understanding democracy and leaving
behind the tribal relations that dominate the Middle East.
9- Probably you are depending on some Kurds, but unfortunately the
ones you depend on are working towards keeping the Kurdish people as
a hostage for the axis of evil within the artificially created
states of the area and are still prisoners of their own tribal
affiliations.
10- The Kurdish mass uprising in Southern Kurdistan (Iraq), which
was called for by President George Bush in 1991 managed within few
hours to liberate all the Kurdish areas including Kirkuk from Saddam
Hussein’s control, but the Kurds you are allied with gave Kirkuk
back to the central government.
11- The Kurdish mass uprising in Western Kurdistan (Syria) in 2004
managed in a matter of hours to burn down 35 governmental buildings
in the town of Qamishli, burned the Syrian flag, destroyed statues
of President Asad and raised the flag of Kurdistan. All this
happened while Asad was in power and without any foreign support as
in Iraq. However, the Kurdish organisations helped the Syrian
government to stop the uprising and contain it.
12- There was also a massive uprising in Eastern Kurdistan (Iran) in
2004 and Northern Kurdistan (Turkey) is an area of continuous
disturbances.
13- Despite of all these Kurdish uprisings against the axis of evil
that called upon you asking when Babi Azad is going to come and
liberate us, which means “father of freedom” that is the nickname
given to George Bush, nevertheless your administration didn’t move a
finger to help them as if you want to support financially those
Kurds who want to keep the 40 million Kurds within the territories
of the axis of evil states that is against your own interests.
14- The Greater Kurdistan extends from the Caspian Sea, Black Sea,
Caucasus and Mediterranean to the Persian Gulf and it is a rich
strategic area that its people belong to Indo-European people and
ready to become your real ally and forever.
15- It is ironic that the whole world was for the liberation of
Kuwait from the Iraqi occupation (which was a great humanitarian
cause) despite the fact that people of Kuwait are very close to the
Iraqis in their language, traditions and culture. However, no one is
talking about liberating the Kurds of Kurdistan who are totally
different in their language, tradition and culture from Iraqi
occupation.
We are aware that politics is all about financial interests, and
your current policy is against any nation building, but the riches
and the oil of Kurdistan is not in the hands of the Kurds right now,
and it’s in the hands of their enemies, and it looks like you depend
on the enemy sources also for your information regarding the Kurds.
That is why I am asking you to try and contact the real people who
are the owners of the cause.
Please accept my best wishes
Yours truly,
Dr Jawad Mella
President of the Kurdistan National Congress
