At the result so many
Israeli’s soldier and innocent people had been
scarified, because the enemy wanted to stop the
creation of the state of Israel, or to stop Israelis
to have their own freedom. Even the Israelis have
lived in the Holy Land of Israel thousand of years
before the Arab Muslims occupied the region under
the manners of Islam. History has approved that with
evidence.
On the other hand the Kurds have seen thousands of
aggression wars that were launched on them for 13
centuries. The Kurds fought them for many hundred
years, including during Prophet Mohammad. The recent
wars that the Kurds faced in the last century such
as, 1945, 1961-1970, 1974-1975, 1976-1991 and the
Chemical Bombardment of the city of Halabje on 16th
March 1988, by the Iraqi Regime, Anfal Genocide of
the Kurds in 1987-1988, the Kurdish up rising in
1991.The war in 2003 with the former Iraqi Army in
disputed areas, and now with the Islamic
Fundamentalisms. I could estimate the total martyrs
over all in Kurdistan reaches over a million Kurds.
That’s how the Kurds protected their homeland. In
1987-1988, the Anfal Genocide Campaign (AGC),
against the Kurds more than 182,000 Kurds were
killed under one of the verses of Quran which is
Anfal. It says you can kill your enemies and take
their belongings, because they are unbelievers or
(infidel).
On the 16th of March 1988, the Iraqi warplanes
bombarded the city of Halabje in (South of
Kurdistan), the Iraqi Kurdistan, and used chemical
gases, at the result 5000 innocent civilians killed.
After the bombardment of the city of Halabje, the
Iraqi war planes continued to bombard many villages
and country towns in Iraqi Kurdistan and more than
40 000 people were killed at the result of these
aggressive bombardments.
The Arabs think that just Arabs have the right to
live in the Middle East not the other nationalities,
and the Middle East just belongs to them nobody
else, but I strongly believe that they are mistaken.
They are occupiers of the majority of the lands that
they are living on it now. They can go back to the
past and check the history, and see which
nationality is ancient.
That’s why after all the genocide that the Kurds and
the Israelis faced in the past, they need to think
twice and say, “Who are our true friends in the
Middle East”? If this is the case the Kurds and the
Israelis need each other, if they want to stay on
their lands and protect themselves from the racist
fascist and extremisms. Because the state of Israel
is a lone among all the enemies that the state has,
Kurds on the other hand after the withdrawal of the
American troops from Iraq, it will be lonely too.
What will happen without the protection of the
western countries especially USA and UK?
Since the fail of the Article 140, which is part of
the Iraqi’s Constitution but the article likes
apiece of paper, and the Iraqi Governments in the
past and including the current Government hasn’t
implemented one single clause of the Article 140.
Article 140 is about the disputed and occupied land
by the Arabs in Kurdish lands, Arabisation and
Barbarism and a long infamous program that used by
all the Iraqi Governments in the past including the
former executed President of Iraq Saddam Hussein.
There are still so many issues that are unsolved
between the KRG and the Iraqi Federal Government,
for almost 6 years even the Iraqi parliament has a
group of Kurdish Parliamentarians, and by the
presence and support and observations of the USA and
British representatives, but still not much has been
achieved. It’s more than 1,000,000 homeless Kurds
around the city of Mosul, Kerkuk, Diyala and
including the 500,000 Kurds that were expelled from
Baghdad in 1968, even in 1972 and 1975, they were
sent to Iran and many more executed by the Former
Iraqi Government Saddam Hussein. The Kurds were
Feili and the richest people in Iraq, especially in
Baghdad and the Saddam’s regime confiscated their
assets. The regime did the same thing to the Jewish
people in Iraq and especially in Baghdad and took
all their belongings. That’s how the Kurds and the
Jewish people were treated in the past,et but they
are not better off now. Even now more than the
Kurdish lands under the domination of the Arabs in
disputed areas. Ninawa is a city located in the
Kurdish area in north of Iraq, 400 km northwest of
Baghdad. The previous city placed on the west bank
of the Tigris River, reverse the olden city of
Nineveh on the east bank, the residents in Ninawa
was anticipated around 1,800,000 people. The Tigris
bridgehead of the road that linked Syria and
Anatolia with Median Empire in 612 BC, the Mede
royal leader Cyaxares, and the Nabopolassar the
Chaldean, both conquered Nineveh. Ninawa was a major
centre commercially of the Median Empire and Persian
Empire in the 6th century BC.
Ninawa is surrounded by Kurdish villages and country
towns. Saddam in his “Arabisation Policy” had
changed the demography of all the places in Ninawa.
Despite the consequences of the Racist Policy
against the Kurds, Ninawa is still contain villages
continues to be home to a mixture of Kurds,
Assyrians, Turkmen’s, Jews, Yazidis, and Arabs. This
city historically is a Kurdish city. Article 140
which is now part of the Constitution, the Iraqi
Government should have implemented the contents of
this Article and should have returned all the
residents that have been expelled from their
original city of Ninawa, its almost 6 years now that
Article is still ink on paper and its not valid any
more. This is just one of the examples’ among other
examples that the Iraqi Government paralysed this
Article and the other articles of the Constitution
and this matter is still unsolved. That’s why I
believe that the Kurds should be keen and try its
best about the existence of American and British
troops in Kurdistan.
The Kurds need to be protected by the western
countries, like these countries, Kuwait, Suida
Arabia and the other Gulf Arabic Kingdoms. How the
Kurds can be protected? The US and the British
Armies should build their Military bases in
Kurdistan. In addition to that, to have much
stronger relations economically, and politically.
This is the best way that the Kurds and the Israelis
can protect their nations from the attacks of
fundamentalisms. I can say this, because I have
experienced, so many situations like this in the
past, and it’s very difficult to believe in
negotiations and peace protocols with the Arab
Muslims. In the past, they had breached so many
agreements for instance the peace agreement between
the Kurdish leader Mustafa Barzani in 1974,www.ekurd.netand
the former Iraqi Government in order to grant
autonomy to the Kurds but after 4 years of the peace
agreement, the government started to fight against
the Kurds and the Iraqi war planes bombarded the
villages and the country towns of Kurdistan in March
1974, at the result thousands of innocent people
killed in the attacks. In another occasion in 1972
the Iraqi Government tried to assassinate the
Kurdish great leader Mustafa Barzani. Even they
tried to kill his son Massoud Barzani, the current
Kurdish president of the Iraqi Kurdistan in Baghdad
while he was on a mission during the peace process
agreement between 1970-1974. These are some of their
breaches of the past and the current agreements.
Their nature is like that, when they are in a tight
situation, they are ready to sign many agreements as
they like, but when they get on their feet they will
breach any agreements easily. That is why the Kurds
and the Israelis should never trust the Arab Muslims
in their peace agreements.
When the Kurds tried hard to create their own state,
Islam caliphates and the Arab and the Turkish
rulers, used Islam religion as a political sledge
hammer and compressed their genuine demands or even
their revolutions and uprisings. Even the Kurds
fought against the Islamic extremism for many
centuries, but forcibly they harvest our homelands
and had torn our country into parts and destroyed
every thing we owned including the Holy Book of
Avesta. The Kurds had paid a great cost in the past
and still we pay on the daily bases. The Kurds
should have never converted from Zoroastrian or
Kakei and accepted Islam as the official religion,
because Islam is not part of the Kurdish culture.
But forcibly, Islam was imposed on all the
nationalities in the Middle East, and put a lot of
tax on people in order to put extra pressure
economically and made the people to be frustrated
and they were not able to keep their old religions,
due to that people could not afford to pay those
heavy taxes and penalties. Even Islam used the force
of swords to convert people to Islam, despite of
using all bad methods of torture and aggressive
wars, I am proud that there are still Kurdish
Jewish, Christians, Kakei, Ehil Al-Heq, and
Zoroastrians Kurds can practice and follow their
religions in Kurdistan. But Kakeis’ kept their
religion secret from Islam for so many centuries,
and they were not allowed to practice their Kurdish
ancient religion.
If the Kurds were able to keep their ancient
religion, it would have helped them to be able to
commence their religious oppose and get the Kurdish
independent state. We had so many Kingdoms before
Islam, but since our Homelands occupied by Arab and
Muslims our identity and freedom lost forever.
Because under Islam there is no freedom of speech,
religion or autonomy they are dictators like the
former Russian Communist, and North Korean communist
regimes. They don’t believe in democracy, but they
do believe strongly in monopoly power and
fundamentalism.
Persians also have experienced so much pressure
under the same religious strike, but intelligently
they transformed to Shiite loyalty and this kind of
development of Islam prepared them to make progress
and to create their sovereign nation state again.
But now the Iranian Islamic regime has taken the
religion so seriously, and they are in some way
under the pressure of this dominant political and
husky hammer, and I strongly believe that the
Iranian people are not going to benefit or gain a
better political advantages from Islam for the
people, except to harm the Iranian people as we have
seen how the current system used Islam to cheat the
Iranian people in the election. Islam is not going
to be beneficial for the Public in Iran, because the
world has developed and the religion has to provide
happiness for people not to damage the country’s
creditability. The Mullahs currently in Iran, and
the other countries, such as Hamas in the city of
Gaze, in Palestine and Hezbollah in Lebanon are
destroying the powers of people and damaged the
reputation of people, and Islam.
I want my homelands to be freed and to be liberated
from the Arabs and the Turkish dictators and rulers.
We could never be free unless we would have our own
independent country, and enjoy the peace in our
homeland. Our nation in realty owes Jewish people
and the Israeli Government for being supportive for
the Kurdish nation in the last century and even at
present for the sake of our existence.
Now the time comes for the Kurds to have clear
political strategies and lengthy plans. We have
suffered internationally due to lack of
international agreements, and coalitions. The
geographical position of Kurdistan is exceptionally
inappropriate, in particular our division among our
occupiers. Our occupiers have not concerned about
other nations, they are extremely powerful in the
region, and they could destroy any small country or
nations, which did not have a strong army. That’s
why I believe these strong and super power countries
should be divided into small and manageable states
in order the other nationalities live in peace
without have been terrified from the super power
countries in the Middle East, and to secure the
freedom of other nationalities. For instance, Kurds,
Assyrians, Armenians, Sudanese, Azeri’s, Barbarians,
and Christian people in Egypt.
There are over 20 million Kurds live in (North of
Kurdistan) Turkey, the Kurds have no freedom under
this Islamic Regime and there is no freedom of
speech and Turkey wishes to become part of the
European Union. Even the Turkish standard of life,
religion, freedom and the democracy can’t be
compared to the standard that exists in Europe. I
believe the standard is minus 100. The Kurds have
been living in Anatolia for thousands of years even
before the existence of the Turks in the Middle
East, but their freedom has being restricted by the
Turkish Dictatorship. For instance the Kurdish
mother tongue is not allowed to be used in Education
system, and Turkey wants to be come part of Europe.
This does not make sense to anyone, and has no
bases.
I strongly believe Israel should amend its
arrangement about the Armenians and the Kurdish
genocide in Turkey and should never support the
Turkish Government in order to destroy the Kurdish
liberation; Israel should be part of the solution
not to become obstacles against the Kurdish wishes.
Some time ago the Vice Presidential debate, Democrat
Joe Biden said "the history of the last 700 years
showed the Iraqi people could never get along with
each other”. It’s absolutely true that’s why the
Kurds and the Israelis need to be united and need to
put their hands in hands in order to protect their
existence as a nation in the Middle East and to
protect their homelands.
That’s why the Kurds need to have their own
independent state and to be separated from the
Arabs. Because the Arabs have approved for the last
century that they are not able to solve the Kurdish
problems, and grant freedom not just to the Kurds
but to any nation in the Middle East, including
themselves.
