“BAGDAD DOES 
NOT MAKE PLACE"

Following Trump's threat to bring annihilation to Iran with a devastating attack, Baghdad has claimed that it will not allow its territory to be used for aggression but does the current Iraqi government have real control over their country?



By Ali Al Nafaji
One of the purposes that the US had when it invaded Iraq in 2003 was without a doubt having Iran at a short distance for a foreseeable military campaign always present in the plans of Washington and Tel Aviv. This is very present not only the current Iraqi political sector but the vast majority of the inhabitants without distinction between Sunnis, Shiites and Christians, a necessary clarification to highlight the continuous and malicious misinformation that the West came spreading during the occupation on the "war sectarian ".

When Saddam Hussein was the president of the country, his government based on the B'aath party and the Iraqi citizens of that time maintained an irresolute support to the Arab causes being one of the main commitments the Palestinian cause, something of which and in spite of the cleanliness that was implemented during the occupation at the hands of the "death squads" -among other issues- to erase this premise, it continues as an irrevocable policy beyond the ethnic belonging of the current ruler (as it happens today with the Kurdish Salih). At that time when the White House supported and needed Saddam to limit the influence of the Islamic revolution, it did not interfere with this position something that, at the same time, disgusted Tel Aviv that at the same time and by all the dirty means tried to sabotage the Iraq's advances in the technological and scientific fields.

When Saddam is hanged in 2006 and replaced by a decorative and mafia-style political administration handpicked from Washington, the Shia members of that farce were as pro-American as they were pro-Iranian, which made the country a battlefield of interests crusaders of the kleptocracy established by the occupation and several external actors with intentions to maintain chaos in Iraq.

Tehran also knew that the US presence in Iraq would be exploited, in addition to the entry of Israeli cells, to study in detail the situation of the land and ways to penetrate the extensive frontier by which, after the destruction of the Iraqi governmental infrastructure was exploited so that all types of smuggling would go unchecked to and from Iran. This in turn was one of the arguments most used by the Iraqi nationalists (Shiites and Sunnis) to denounce the Iranian penetration that was used by the ideologists of "ISIS" to co-opt a part of the resistance groups that operated in the region province "Al Anbar" and the desert region of "Al Sham".

Before this, the American and British troops sought allies among the enemies of the B'aath nationalist party, thus qualified in public until before the invasion, to help them control the growth of armed resistance by creating the "Sahwa" or Awakening tips (أبناء العراق‎ ) that operated in the center of the country. Thus, while they were buying with money in hand the intelligence officers of the party, many others were being tortured, murdered or disappeared by the same Americans in their dungeons of "Abu-Graib", "Bucca" and other dozens of extended secret prisons all over Iraq.

So treacherous were the methods used to try to control an uncontrollable situation. Although Washington maintained its troops and support for the puppet regime of the "Dawa" party sheltered among the walls of the "Green Zone", at the same time its intelligence agencies cooperated in hiding with some former members of Saddam's intelligence Hussein to limit the growth of Iranian influence within the brutal security forces.

Within this sinister engineering aimed at creating hatred and mistrust among Sunnis or Shiites, insurgent groups with foreign members were also put into operation that were lies created and directed by military intelligence obviously with the close cooperation of the CIA and its Arab partners region of. "Al Qaeda-Iraq" allegedly introduced by the Jordanian Abu Muzab Al Zarqawi and then the "Islamic State of Iraq" are his most outstanding products.

In spite of the brutality printed by these groups (especially with the beheadings), the Iraqis realized that all this represented a maneuver orchestrated by the invaders themselves with the veiled intention to break the social and confessional unity that had existed for hundreds of years the arrival of those. In this context, the Iraqis do not forget what the "Daesh" represented, and a reinvigorated return in 2014, the nexuses warned by the popular militias in the battlefield and the irreproducible re victimize that it caused over the entire population.

Today, under the current conflicting circumstances that put Iran in the spotlight, Trump said in mid-February on the CBS network that he would keep troops in Iraq to keep a close eye on Iran, which at that time unleashed the strong protests government in Baghdad and Iraqi Shiite and Sunni nationalist parties. And it is that the war of 1980 to 1988 with Iran is present in the memory of the country bearing in mind who served that bloody conflict. Throughout the months we saw how through "False Flag" operations, an unsuccessful attempt was made to create an international incident in the Gulf waters that would justify a massive attack against Iran, arriving with the downing of the "Spy Drone RQ-4Global" culminate point of tension.

Undoubtedly, despite the convenient accusations from Washington and the influence displayed by the Western mass media, the doubts raised by independent international sectors and the growth of social networks made public opinion think beyond official information, demonstrating that this expectant mass is no longer as manageable as it was during the twentieth century.

It was for that reason that the comments of Trump speaking among other issues of causing an "annihilation" on the neighboring Islamic Republic taking advantage of his presence in Iraq, were immediately repudiated and without a doubt the main interested in doing so was the current Iraqi President Barham Salih who recalled the suffering of his country by the economic sanctions imposed during the 90s and the devastation created by those circumstances among the population that lasts until these days. Added to this, it must be remembered that despite the military and intelligence presence of the Americans (and of some of their allies), Baghdad has developed a degree of political autonomy after the revolts and demonstrations promoted three years ago by sectors led by Moqtadar. Al Sadr who put a limit to the abject parliamentary corruption managed to taste and pleasure by the mafias that (under the control of the Dawa party) administered the spoils of the country. In this regard, Baghdad has carried out several cooperation and non-aggression agreements with neighboring countries, including Iran, for which there is some truth in Salih's claim not to allow Iraqi territory to be used for an adventure against Iran but It is also true that it is not Salih or his government and even less its militias that control the strategic air bases of their own country.

Trump's statements demonstrate the customary double standards of the speeches of the White House administrations and demonstrate, in turn, how false was the argument to suspend the attack on Iran for alleging concern about the possible death of 150 human lives since, If he would pretend to annihilate an entire nation, what would worry about the lives of a few hundred dead Shia Muslims?
