BAGHDAD - A translation of the morning
he told me a man the police: «We have killed al-Qaeda two men two days ago, then contact us to declare the name of their operation.»
we were the center of Fallujah, which was re-built, here is where demanding security men all foreigners not to move only with them does hang, but We have had Issahibna six of them one of them covering his face, and why the concept is also among our police colonel later when he said: «The rule does not still exist here and they are a source of concern to us when we move in the city, but did not return as they were.»
the place where we stood talking it was an old rule belonging to the American Marines, and is far away the train station which has been newly built. There are no trains after, of course, but Americans did not erase the effects of after.
all the way to Baghdad believes U.S. bases such as the effects of ESRI time .. Some concrete barriers may fell, leaving a sense that there is an empire has gone .. Just as the British left, and before them the Romans. This does not mean that Iraq was free of problems, there is a problem Tareq al-Hashemi, who fled from Baghdad to Kurdistan and claimed there cruising in the Gulf countries, angering the Iraqi government. This is not a good tale, and the central government to blame the authorities in the Kurdish capital Arbil airport for allowing Hashemi to fly to Qatar. The spokesman said the Iraqi government, he said: «Iraqi law and one, which applies to everyone, including the Kurdistan region.»
But the reality is not the case, Vkrdstan Iraq are almost (independent state) has its own language, flag, although the license plates which do not still bears the name of Iraq. And along the highway heading to Erbil find points control the management of police forces and the Iraqi army, and those more friendly and the screen of Americans who had charge of management control points of old, where the soldiers were afraid to direct their arms to you, fearing to be a suicide bomber.
comes the distance from the road length of about 50 kilometers are still considered unsafe because of al Qaeda activity and then enter Kurdistan, where rivers run from under the road and the security men are just as friendly and the screen. Erbil outside yard there is a large transaction processing station that looks more like something customs offices. Yes .. Iraq is safer today, though yesterday's rebels, who no longer find Anasabonhm American hostility, may have turned to Iran, which they describe took the enemy. On the highway was Tsahbni Dr. Lubna Naji, a physician practice her age 25 years. Shake Dr. Lubna her regret on many things hit Iraq that has made many acquaintances and friends are leaving their country after they lost their sense of belonging.
the same opinion you hear from so many others, but Saad Tahir Hussain, a journalist with a clear and objective, he says: «For me I'd rather die here, standing like a tree, to dissolve undone. »Odgna This combination of analogy and metaphor, but Saad goes waving his hand, he says:« This is the difference between the old generation and the new generation. »
we have come together numerous checkpoints that struck me vertigo , he counted thirteen dresses worn by security officers in those points. The police officer shall receive the equivalent of £ 300, the officer in the army and 500 pounds, and this amount is to risk your life for him in Iraq.
But what about those dark dark period? What happened to Iraq in those days, grim, the days of sedition, kidnapping and murder of children? Tremble Dr. Lubna Ali is cut, saying: «I was a student in my fourth year of medical Adom in the Medico-Legal Institute next to the morgue, and will not believe what she saw our eyes. I remember the body was brought to us by one day has been cut off her head and thread it into place top dog. Can you imagine someone doing this? »To .. Iraq needs to study psychology covering the years 2005 to 2007.
the Baghdad government has accused the Kurds to sell oil to the Iranians in a way not legitimate, and thus deprive the government of millions of dollars. This says Deputy Prime Minister Hussein al-Shahristani, a one victims of torture Saddam - and as soon as we forget the pain of the past and punishment - that the quantities so large that it causes a deficit in the budget.
was approved by an Afghan official in the month of October last that his country buys oil from the Kurds. But the government is pressing her hand to him on the Kurds, as it is to pay the salaries of the Peshmerga. Told me of the Iraqi Kurdish city of Arbil, said: «If you stop the salaries of these Sjkovn for granted their loyalty to our leaders. We suffer from our own problems that we solved first before talking about the establishment of a state for us. In any case, Turkey is the main trading partner, what they would say I wonder if we demanded the independence of Kurdistan? »
