WASHINGTON / Orr News
The Nation newspaper reported, quoting Tgariramirka issued by the Yale Center for the Study of Globalization that the Iraqi government last month expelled channels Al Jazeera and other Arab channels, accusing them of an increase exacerbate sectarian tensions in the country after having been welcomed in the past.
This comes a decline in Iraqi politics, possibly as a result of the situation in Syria, where the threat of sectarian conflict there to convert to civil war despite the fact that Turkey and the United States are still playing a major role in Iraqi politics Interior and the key drivers of sectarian conflict is a conflict of indirect power in the region between Saudi Arabia and Iran and winning rivalry between Shiites and Sunnis on this basis which threatens obtaining sectarian division in Iraq, pushing the country towards civil war.
Sectarian in Syria is the result of four decades of rule by the Syrian regime, where the power concentrated in the hands of the minority upper through the manipulation of the election results, which aroused resentment among the Sunni majority there due to a sharp feeling resulting from political discrimination there. At a time when the Syrian crisis and local product of authoritarian rule by the family and community was the situation in Iraq different result for change through invasion and failed almost entirely state-level security after a decade on it, which led to concessions to provide security for its citizens, which forced individuals and families to try to resort to solidarities sectarianism Bodvha the strategy for survival.
And things Mazad complex in Iraq is the American occupation asylum to sow discord by trying to show the party that he has a favorite being the fear that the other party is still loyal to the former regime in Iraq and thus not allowing him to control the reins of power. This erroneous U.S. strategy led to obtain the insurgency and the entry of al-Qaeda in Iraq during the first years of the occupation.
Things went worse Iraq is in fact, like Syria, has become a major theater of the war between Iran and Saudi Arabia with payment Turkey strongly experienced by the circumstances to take the role of an anti-rule in Iran, unlike the better governance can be taken by the leadership in the light of this situation in the region. Because Saudi Arabia and Turkey are allies of the United States, but it is clear that there is a war on behalf of Iraq put Iran in exchange for the United States, which considers Iran its main opponent in the energy-rich Middle East and of importance Alastrutnaijih. Ironically in this region U.S. success in toppling Saddam's regime has given the opportunity for Iran to increase its influence, which cast a shadow over U.S. influence in Iraq.
Iran's goal in Iraq is clear and is preventing the emergence of a military threat, as was the military threat like Saddam's regime, which represents the Iraqi invasion of Iran in 1980 led to a bloody conflict lasted for eight years and left more than a million people between the two sides. Playing on the sectarian card by Iran in Iraq is for the purpose of preventing the recurrence of such a threat.
That the main objective of Tehran to Aeetmthel the formation of a Shiite crescent in the Arab world as some claim, because that would interfere with its broader goal is to win friends and influence on the Middle East of the Sunni-dominated, a basic requirement in order to be recognized as a major power in the region. This aspiration by Iran for recognition as a major power in the region brought about the conflict with Saudi Arabia, which aspires to the same goal also by relying on its oil wealth, large and custody of the holiest Islamic sites in addition to ideological differences between the parties is that they have paid in the past, Saudi Arabia and the monarchies of the Gulf with the help Saddam in his war against Iran, which also pays hostility current expressed by Saudi King Abdullah in a confidential letter to in April of 2008 to the Embassy of the United States, which urged the latter to what he called "decapitate the snake" in a clear reference to the need to attack Iran to end Iran's nuclear program and roll back Tehran's influence in Iraq.
In this context, as long as echoed Riyadh and chieftains Gulf and Jordan fears of the emergence of a Shiite crescent in the region is made up of Iran, Iraq and Syria, Assad and Hezbollah could take the lead in the Middle East and would dictate policies which so Flajb afterwards that Iraq will become like Syria, the scene of a major Saudi rivalry game in which Iran Iranian support a party which supports the Saudi Arabia of the other party.
