Whilst most worlds’ governments have come to
acknowledge the credibility and legitimacy of an
already existing de facto Kurdish state, a Kurdish
President cheerfully and willfully helps further the
noble cause of his own people by acting quite in
reverse.
Disavowal of Kurdish nation’s existential rights
might in the interim placate some bogus Arab,
Turkish and Iranian cronies, but incontestably, it
can not be a vouch for continuation of any
president’s tenure, nor will it help boost approval
rate as some presidents might assume, especially
among the increasingly growing younger and more
patriotic Kurdish generation.
Every now and then, our president pops up for an
interview in foreign press and couches some aimless
views which do not mirror even those of his own
advocates. Leave alone the overwhelming majority of
Kurdish populace. In a military tribunal,www.ekurd.neta
president or alike statespersons could face life
imprisonment sentences for treason and denial of
people’s statehood rights.
One of the vows in every presidential oat-taking is
committing to defending the homeland, serving people
genuinely and abiding by the constitution, all of
which have been breeched so far by President
Talabani. Kurdish right to freedom and independence
is not contingent on the approval of any state or
president.
Through institution and state building efforts
through out the history of unfounded Iraq, the Kurds
have proven to all the skeptics that they deserve to
attain their decades-long target of internationally
recognized statehood. They have run their own as
well as those of Iraqi governments affairs. With the
demise of most dictator rulers and end of
dictatorship era, there has been even more empathy
among supportive western nations towards oppressed
peoples.
It is not far to predict that in a very near
forthcoming , the UN security council will allocate
a special session to particularly discuss Kurdish
statehood topic in its annual meeting.
Peshmarga forces are authorized to threaten
unilateral actions or mandatory resignation of any
Kurdish or Arab president that does not recognize
Kurdish nation’s statehood rights. Interestingly,
Saddam Hussein of Iraq had not negated Kurdish
independence rights as many times as has our Kurdish
president cited.
A Kurdish independent state will come into existence
by 2015, and Talabanis pointless assertions are not
buyable any more, nor can they deter or hamper the
crystallization of an independent Kurdistan.
