Lebanon and Syria.....

Friday, September 14, 2007

May peace be upon you…
All the previous time I was busy with the Iraqi families here. And now the blessed month of Ramadan arrived, so I decided to take a break and a vacation, to stay at home for a few days because I am very exhausted, physically and mentally. I need to be by my self, without answering phones or opening the e-mail…
At such days, I long for my home in Baghdad, I long for beloved Baghdad, for Iraq and everything there. I do not think there is anything that makes the heart more sad than leaving the homeland , for the homeland means everything for someone who was forced to leave his home and his country, like me and most Iraqis who live scattered, and long for our jobs, our homes, our neighbors, relatives, friends, our memories, and everything there…
Here, I do not suffer from an illegal residency, or that I do not have a job opportunity or a family income, or that I am prohibited from traveling to the world because I carry a hated Iraqi passport. I suffer none of these things because my husband is Jordanian… but the sadness in my heart is as big as mountains; for what about the Iraqis who do not have legal residency permits here, and so are their children; they live in constant panic that the Residency Police might come along and throw them at the boarder, even thought they all carry the white paper issued by the (UNHCR) United Nation's Commissariat for Refugees. But they do not trust it, and do not believe it forms an adequate roof of protection for them. Also they are not allowed to work, and that white paper from the Commissariat doesn't grant them the right to work. And so, the Residency Police are permitted to deport any of the Iraqis they might find working while without a legal residency permit, whether he was a doctor or a construction worker….
Well then; how will they manage to live?
Most of them have lost touch with their kin inside Iraq, who stopped sending them aid, because those inside have enough misery and hell to suffer; the lack of job opportunities, the rising prices of food and fuels, the bad services- water supply, electricity and health services. And this means the family must endure to supply and buy clean drinking water manufactured by private companies, and electricity supply from private generators to cover up some reasonable hours, because the hours in which they see the national electric supply are very limited and not enough, and of course this costs the prices of fuels or a subscription in the big neighborhood generator. Also the gasoline isn't always easy to find in the state petrol stations, sometimes there is a shortage and a long queue which compels people to buy it from the black market merchants, regardless of its higher price. And this also goes for the other fuels like cooking gas and kerosene, especially at winter time… and if a family member got ill or was hit with shrapnel or bullets from the daily clashes; then this would be another catastrophe added to the family there; the state hospitals are drawing their last breaths because of the bad services, the immigration of doctors, the scarcity of medicines or leaking it to the black market, because of the administrational corruption spreading through the government systems. A lot of calamities that the poor Iraqi citizen has no control upon, and he is faced with two options without a third: either to be silent and patient, or to gather up his scattered wreckage and look for an exile in Syria or Jordan or Egypt or Sweden…but this, of course, has also become a far off dream, because almost everyone closed their doors at the faces of the Iraqis now............ meaning- the country lives in a state of chaos and ruin, not only in matters of kidnapping, killing, and bombings, but the daily civilian life is also a tiring, exhausting life, insulting a human's dignity…. So, is it logical to ask these people to help their relatives who immigrated from Iraq?
Impossible, of course; the logical thing is that those who immigrated should help their kin who live inside, under the shadows of every-day hell, if not by explosives, then from hunger, poverty, continuous frustration, and a glimmer of hope that appears only to disappear again….
These are the conditions of the Iraqis, inside or in exiles, even those who own a house, a reasonable income and a legal residency permit, like me, are unhappy and dissatisfied, seeing their only happiness in returning back home, finding their happiness in seeing all the occupation soldiers, the mercenaries, the thieves and the killers leave Iraq never to return….
When will that day come?
I do not exactly know, for that knowledge is only with God, but that day will come, sooner or later….it will come… and we all await that day eagerly, and will not relinquish this dream, nor that hope…. For how tight life would be without the vastness of hope…
*****************************************************************
A few weeks ago, I was in a mission to buy some school requirements for a number of Iraqi families' children here, then, on that same day, it happened that I was busy and confused at the stationery store, so I didn’t notice that my handbag was open. Then, I sat down to catch my breath in that same store and noticed that my wallet and the camera were missing from the bag. What a happy moment that was!
I stared unbelievingly; somebody snatched the wallet thinking it was full of money, but actually it was full of my ID cards; the social statues card, the driving license, the bank cards, the Engineering Union card, the health insurance card, the public library card, and some discount cards in some shops where I am usually a customer..........
I fell in an indescribable state of depression. I finished buying the requirements then went back home, feeling as if someone hit me on the head with a heavy club… I informed the Police, then waited a few days for them to call me, but no one called…
At that time exactly, I decided to travel with my sons for a vacation in Syria and Lebanon, hoping this would lessen my feelings of annoyance and defeat. And when I get back, I shall start the process of reissuing my lost cards and IDs…
******************************************
I lived in Lebanon during the first years of my graduation from university and marriage. I went there with my husband to work as a volunteer to reconstruct the Palestinian refugee camps during the civil war… I worked with engineering firms and humanitarian organizations to build hospitals and reconnect the water and electricity supplies to the camps which were subjected to bombardment and the ruin that befell the infrastructure and influenced the lives of poor civilians…
I was young, my experience in life still tender, but my goal and convictions were clear. I refused to be employed by the Iraqi state authorities like all the newly graduated usually do. I saw that a human's mission in this life is bigger than thinking selfishly about himself, his house, his car and family only. Sacrificing for the sake of others is a noble mission deserving for a person to hold on to for a part or all of his life. And this depends upon his subjective abilities and personal decisions… now, when I see my son Raed refusing to work as an architect in architectural private bureaus whether in the Middle East or in America where he lives, to see him committed to humanitarian work to save Iraq from its dilemma, I smile and say- how can I blame him or tell him to quit this job: because it is tiring, frustrating, and you are still at the beginning of the road…
He won't hear me, for sure, for this was what I myself did when the elders advised me then. My convictions didn't budge, they don't now, in spite of all that I suffered and paid for, during those two years in Lebanon. I do not regret it at all…
Thank God the passage of years didn't change me, I didn't turn into an opportunist or a thwarted negative, as I regrettably see a lot of people around me, afflicted by these attributes with time, and were defeated inwardly before frankly announcing their official defeat….
**************************************
I went with my sons Khalid and Majed to Beirut and Syria within a tourist group, I mean by bus. The journey in a bus was tiring; the muscles of my back cramped and my feet swelled because of the narrow seat. Beside me was a woman I didn't know… sitting uncomfortably for long hours made me very tired.
We passed by the Jordanian-Syrian border, then into Syria, crossing it to the Syrian-Lebanese border, then into Lebanon, at last…
We went to the summer resorts in Alee'e, Naba Al-Safa, Bait Al-Deen Palace, past Shtoora. The scenery was very, very beautiful, the nature there all green mountains and sloping roofs, as if we were in Switzerland. The weather was very nice, praise God…
We went back to Beirut, checked in a hotel at Al-Hamra area. We went to Al-Rousha Rock, walked along the corniche, drank fresh juice, and saw vendors selling broad beans, and corn
I remembered everything as it was when I was living in Beirut during the civil war, and here I come back to visit it after about thirty years, but things aren't better than they used to be; the city lives as if on a volcano that will erupt any minute, divided into zones bearing slogans and photos supporting Hizb Allah, Hassan Nasra'lla and those with him, while other zones hold slogans and photos supporting Al-Hareeri, denouncing Syria and whoever is in alliance with her…
in downtown Beirut there are tents of the opposition against the government, and the militias of the Lebanese Parties who oppose the government…. There are some old neighborhoods, sad, neglected, to which the hand of cleaning and development didn't reach, perhaps since the days of the civil war, while you can see other neighborhoods where fancy hotels, luxurious commercial and residential buildings rise high, as if there are two different worlds living in one small city, too small to contain such big contradictions…
The country is small and weak, and cannot endure the conflicts of its neighbors inside its borders- not only the neighbors, but a mighty force like America becoming a major and evident player in Lebanon, moving in to re-arrange the Lebanese house according to his own interests…
A sad thing… Lebanon is an amazing model of a multi-polar, multi-leadership sectarian country: the Muslims here are Sunnies and Shia'ats, the Christians are Maronites and others, and there are also the leaders of Al-Druze sect, several conflicting Christian Parties, and many conflicting militias… the government lives in a state of fixed sectarian partnership; the president must be a Christian, the prime minister a Sunnie Muslim, the head of Parliament a Shia'at Muslim, and the parliament members divided between Sunnies, Shia'ats and Druze and others….
The occupation introduced this ugly allotment into Iraq since 2003, meaning- the aim is to build a weak, torn state in Iraq, like the Lebanese model, maintaining a conflict inside, while the neighbors extend in their fingers, arming one faction against another…
My sadness increased, chasing away any mood to enjoy a vacation. I wished there was a button to turn off memories, so I can forget the painful memories of what happened to Iraq, enjoy the vacation, laugh, and clap to the silly songs the stupid bus driver is playing so loudly, which only increased my crumpled mood.......
This is Lebanon as it has been for long decades; a model of a small, weak, skinny country, shaken by the winds and the interests of interior and exterior powers…
some say: all this happened to Lebanon because it is Israel's neighbor, that it should remain weak and disordered politically and financially so it wouldn't form any threat to Israel, which always had stability, and the financial and military support of the western countries, contrary to the Arab countries neighboring to Israel, as they were always weakened and destroyed militarily and financially so they would remain like this, forming no danger… Egypt, Lebanon, and Jordan are all besieged- financially and politically, and Syria is the most threatened now, because she refuses to hold negotiations with Israel, for Syria is accused of being a terrorist country, or supporting terrorism… In the past, Iraq used to form a threat to Israel, and now it is invaded, occupied, destroyed and shredded, so as to become an example to other countries in the region; this would be the fate of all who dare to challenge America and Israel, meaning- this is a lesson for Syria and Iran, for example, yours shall be a fate like Iraq, if you don't sign peace agreements with Israel….
How I hate politics and those who work with it? as if it is the dirtiest profession in the world, because it destroys people and countries alike…. And the reason - the "critical interests" of a small ruling faction of thieves here and there..........
May their eyes go blind........
*******************************************************************************
Things in Lebanon are very expensive; their currency is the Lira, each 1500 Lira equals $1, just like the poor, crumbled Iraqi Dinnar… I mean, the civil war ended approximately since 1990, but the Lebanese currency remained weak like this? despite the investments, the tourism and the hotels? This is really a strange thing..........
I liked visiting the Ji'eeta Cave, very beautiful; a cave tens of thousands of years old, where drops of water accumulated with dissolved lime stones to create strange and beautiful statues no artist can accomplish, praise God! I was also happy in that visit as I met a lot of Iraqi people there. I was distracted between stopping there to say: hello, I am also an Iraqi who ran away from hell, like you, my heart sad, and I want to go back to Iraq, like you!
Or to smile and remain silent, like a stranger….
I don't know why the feeling of estrangement from one's country is a sad feeling that breaks a human's heart…
***********************************************************************
We went to Syria… oh, God, how much fresh fruits there are, and how delicious they look? And nuts, like nutmeg, almonds, raisins, pistachios and cashews? And chocolates, nougat, baklava, and dried fruits? Syria is the land of boons, praise God!
At the beginning we went to Lathiqiya, oh God, how beautiful, the sea was wonderful, the weather very nice, and the air refreshingly cool… Beirut was hot and humid…. We went out of Lathiqiya by bus to the regions of northern Syria, near the Turkish border, oh God, how beautiful the scenery there was? As if in paradise?
Green, planted mountains without a bald patch, and beautiful houses living safely at the edges of mountains or at the valley's belly…
We bought laurel soap from there, locally manufactured, very mild, some for skin and some for hair.........
then two days later we went to Damascus…
I love Damascus, even though it is an old city, but she reminds me of Baghdad at the days of the embargo; no new buildings, and not much private investments, but they have internet and mobile phones… Souk Al-Hamediyah is very famous; a crowded popular market, full of all nice goods, most of which are local Syrian products. That's why I respect the Syrian people so much… when I am in Lebanon and Jordan I see everything is imported, and this is something boring; there is no identity of the country, only a few hand crafted items in shops for tourists, a few carpets or pottery ......... but in Syria, Egypt, and Iraq, you see and smell an old, deep-rooted civilization, one you love and feel eager to get to know…
Al-Hamediyah Market and the streets around it are crowded with pedestrians, and you know they are Iraqis from the map of Iraq they wear in chains, hanging down on their chests. The whole street is full of Iraqis; young men and women, mothers, fathers, and kids! Their voices and accents are clear and distinct.
How many millions ran away from Iraq to the neighbors? ..................
In Syria, most of the products in the markets are local-made; men's and women's house dresses, under wear and night gowns, veils, bed sheets, bedcovers and table covers, woodworks inlaid with shells, very beautiful copper products, leather bags and purses, sweets, and dried fruits- local products that are classy, clean, and the prices aren't high…
Prices in Syria are very low compared to Lebanon and Jordan nearby…… here, you see something very familiar: the State Company of Pottery Products, the State Company of Wool and Carpets Products,…. These are state owned companies, they remind me of Iraq and its public sector organizations before the war…. But Bush and the globalization he wants to export seek to establish the private sector and the privatization policy, and eliminate the public sector, meaning- the government establishments would close their doors while the private sector's would open theirs, prices would go up, and a specific class of merchants in the country would benefit, the state would be weak and cannot interfere to protect the consumer's rights, especially the poor ones........... that's why Syria is now hated by Bush; for she owns a little nationality and identity, and these should be crushed; it is now the age of globalization, of markets opened onto merchants and big companies, and let the national industries be destroyed and perish, let its owners go hungry when facing the competition of the cheap goods, imported from China, for instance….
When we got back to Amman, the news said that the Israeli military planes flew over Lathiqiya area and bombarded a military post there…
I felt sorry because I do not wish the ruin and destruction that America caused for Iraq to befall Syria…. I prayed for Syria that God would keep his blessings of security and stability upon them… that God would spare them the evil of the sly people who destroyed Iraq… Amen........
I do not wish what befell Iraq to happen to others, for whatever the reason is, war is a stupid and evil choice… look at us; what have we reaped out of this war upon Iraq, after more than four years?
And to whoever asks me- do you think it was worth the sacrifices that were made?
I say- NO…
Enough of the blood that was shed; who justifies shedding blood? Who justifies killing the innocent, demolishing houses, and destroying cities?
Whoever believes in God, and has an atom of mercy in his heart for humans, would not accept the option of waging a war........... the ugliest thing humans could commit against each other......
There are no noble justifications whatsoever for killing people and shedding their blood at this age .............. but it is just for the mean interests of a hard-hearted faction of thieves, whose eyes are never satisfied of this world, and whose souls and hearts are sick….
May their eyes go blind, once more……

العراق يغلي.....

الاثنين 17 أيلول 2007
السلام عليكم....
نعود للعراق مرة أخرى ..
هذه الفترة يمر العراق بتطورات ساخنة , كأن درجة غليان الوضع في العراق تقترب من الحد الذي سيخرج عن السيطرة,
أو أن يحدث تغيير حقيقي يرضي العراقيين ..............
الادارة الامريكية والحكومه العراقية حاليا تعانيان من سخط كبير يحمله الشعب العراقي اولا, ثم الشعب الامريكي , عليهما , لكن بالتأكيد غضب العراقيين أكبر , لأنهم يعيشون العذاب والتدمير اليومي منذ اكثر من اربع سنوات دون توقف
( وكما يقول المثل عندنا الذي تحت ضرب العصا ليس كمثل الذي يقف ويعد الضربات )
وكلما برق أمل في الأفق, عاد وانطفأ , وكلما ساد هدوء مؤقت , عادت وانفجرت الاحياء السكنية بالسيارات المفخخة او اطلاق الرصاص بين عصابات ومليشيات مسلحة الله وحده يعلم من يمولها ويرسلها لتدمير العراق وشعبه...
بينما الشعب واحد متوحد, على شاشات الفضائيات العراقية والعربية ترى مقابلات مع عراقيين داخل العراق او في سوريا والاردن ومصر , كلهم يتكلمون نفس المصطلحات وكلهم غاضبون وساخطون على هذه الحكومة الحالية في العراق وعلى بوش وما فعله للعراق وشعبه...
وكلهم يريدون أن يروا الامان والاستقرار في العراق ليعودوا الى بيوتهم ......
************************************************
الاسبوع الماضي قدم قائد القوات الامريكية في العراق, والسفير الامريكي في العراق, قدما شهادتهما عن الوضع في العراق أمام الكونغرس,
وطبعا كما توقعنا فهم سيرقعون مصائب بوش في العراق , ويقدمون شهادات مزورة وكاذبة ترضي بوش ,
وتنقذ ماء وجهه أمام الشعب الامريكي لكن ليس أمام الشعب العراقي , فنحن كعراقيين نعيش داخل العراق أو خارجه , نعرف تماما ما هي القصص الحقيقية على أرض الواقع في العراق المحتل الحزين الجريح......
وقال قائد القوات ان خطة زيادة القوات قبل ستة شهور قد نجحت وحصدنا ثمارها الايجابية من تحسين الوضع الامني في العراق وخصوصا منطقة الانبار...
وقال بوش انه يفكر بسحب حوالي خمسة الاف جندي امريكي من العراق نهاية هذا العام , وربما اكثر بحلول الصيف القادم ..
ونحن كلنا نعرف ان هذا لن يغير شيئا , ارسال خمسة الاف او سحبهم , لن يغير شيئا ..
المشكلة في العراق لا علاقة لها بعدد الجنود الامريكيين ابدا ابدا....
المشكلة هي ضرورة جلوس الاطراف العراقية المتصارعة على الحكم مع بعضها البعض للتوصل لصيغة معقولة لضبط البلاد , العنف في الشارع هو دليل على عدم اتفاق الاحزاب التي في الحكومة او التي خارجها مع بعضها البعض, كل حزب له مليشيا يرسلها للشارع لتقتل العراقيين وتزيد الوضع توترا , ليثبت لخصومه انه موجود وانه قادر على السيطرة على حالة الشارع العراقي....
الحل في العراق سياسي فقط , لو اتفق السياسيون على نقاط رئيسية لانقاذ البلاد من الفوضى والدمار, لساد الهدوء والامان,
لكن هيهات , هذه تبدو كأنها احلام بعيدة المنال منذ 4 سنوات ...
لماذا ؟
لان المحتل وضع اصابعه في صياغة مستقبل العراق الجديد , ووضع أسس عراق طائفي عرقي منقسم على ذاته ...
الحكومات كلها التي جاءتنا لحد الان تعتمد المحاصصة الطائفية والعرقية والحزبية , وهي تتناحر بينها , ليس لديها وقت او رغبة في التفكير بمصالح العراقيين او العراق, هذه الاحزاب تفكر فقط بمصالحها وكيف تحتفظ بالكراسي,
العراقيون يموتون كل يوم ويعانون كل يوم ولا احد يبالي بهم , لا بوش, ولا زعماء الطوائف والاحزاب المريضة المشوهة التي دخلت العراق بعد الحرب,
والان بعد 4 سنوات من العملية السياسية في العراق ماذا جنينا؟
تحطمت كل التحالفات في الاسابيع الماضية
خصوصا هذا الاسبوع ظهرت التناقضات واضحة
حيث ...
بدأ التحالف الشيعي بالإنهيار وانسحبت منه كتلة الصدر وحزب الفضيلة ,وحزب الدعوة فرع العراق يهدد ايضا بالانسحاب
( هذه تناحرات الاحزاب الطائفية بينها)
وتحطمت جبهة التوافق والمفروض انها سنية , لكن تناحرت الاحزاب المكونه لها وانقسمت وكل قسم له رؤية مختلفة في حل مشاكل العراق...
والبرلمان منقسم على نفسه وبدأت تظهر كتل سياسية جديدة معارضة للكتل الرئيسية في حكومة المالكي...
ليس فقط بوش في مأزق , بل كل من دخل معه للعراق وكل من شارك في العملية السياسية,
هو في مأزق الان .....
اعتقد انه صار واضحا أن الحل الوحيد للخروج من الازمة في العراق هو حكومة وحدة وطنية
لا طائفية ولا احزاب دينية فاشلة ولا كلام فارغ ..........
ضاعت السنوات الماضية سدى لأن بوش ومن معه من هؤلاء الكذابين الانتهازيين اللصوص , لا يريدون للعراق هذا الاختيار,
حكومة وحدة وطنية عراقية ............
هذا الاختيار إن حصل , سيأتي رجال ونساء للحكم أكثر وطنية وحبا للعراق, وأقل حبا وطاعة للاحتلال, وسيطالبون بوش بسحب الجيوش , وهذا ما لا يريده , هو يخطط للبقاء في العراق الى أجل غير مسمى ...
والطريقة الوحيدة التي تمكنه في البقاء بالعراق هو وجود حكومة ضعيفة وأحزاب ومليشيات متقاتلة متناحرة وشارع تعمه الفوضى وسفك الدماء , ونفط وثروات تنهبها شركات امريكية , وشعب يتضور جوعا ويغرق في ظلام الفقر والجهل والمرض, وقد هرب خيرة المثقفين والخبراء والعلماء خارج البلاد الى المنافي المختلفة, أو تم قتلهم ودفنهم تحت التراب...
هذا هو العراق الذي يريده بوش ان يظل على قيد الحياة .............
لكنني اؤمن أن الله سينصر العراقيين , مهما طال الزمان , ستنتصر رغبتهم , كما حدث تماما في تاريخ العراق تحت الاحتلال البريطاني, كم مكروا ؟
وكم افسدوا وفرقوا بين العراقيين؟
وكم من ثورات حدثت ضدهم ؟
وكم تغيرت وزارات ومجالس برلمان وجاءت وجوه وذهبت وجوه , لكنهم جميعا ذهبوا وبقي العراق, وبقي التاريخ يحكي القصص..
وسيذهب الاحتلال الامريكي من العراق, وسيكتب التاريخ قصصا أخرى ...

****************************************************************************
هذه واحدة من القصص الغامضة مثلا في العراق
والتي احب ان اتكلم عنها اليوم ....
بوش زار العراق قبل صدور التقرير وتقديم الشهادات , ونزلت طيارته في الانبار ,وصافح القادة العسكريين الامريكيين هناك وصافح الشيخ عبد الستار ابو ريشه , وهو رئيس ما يسمى مجلس عشائر صحوة الانبار , على أساس انه البطل الذي نظف الانبار من القاعدة ,
هذه القصة ظلت غامضة وعندي فضول كثير ان اعرف تفاصيلها الحقيقية ......
وبعد يومين او ثلاثة من تقديم الشهادات حول العراق , جاءت سيارة مفخخة وانفجرت بموكب ابو ريشه وقتلته , وهذه نكبة اخرى تصيب بوش , وتصادمت الاراء القادمة من الانبار, البعض يتهم حكومة المالكي بقتل ابوريشه , والبعض يتهم القاعدة مرة أخرى...
ثم ارسل لنا بعض الاصدقاء فيلما وثائقيا صدر جديدا ( قام بتصويره ناشط أمريكي ), يظهر فيه ابو ريشه وهو معتز بنفسه جالس في احد فنادق عمان , ويتحدى الارهابيين ويقول انه سيعود الى بيته بعد ايام وخلي الارهابيين يأتون الى هناك ...
ثم رأيت في الفيلم ان القوات الامريكية تتمشى في أمان في بعض مدن الانبار , او يستعملون الدراجات الهوائية ...
السؤال البريء : طيب , القوات الامريكية كانت تتعرض لهجمات من القاعدة والمقاومة الوطنية العراقية ...
القاعدة تم القضاء عليها بعد التعاون بين بعض عشائر الانبار والقوات الامريكية , وماذا عن المقاومة الوطنية؟
هل تم القضاء عليها ايضا أم تم اخراجها باتفاق سلمي من مدن الانبار؟
قابلت هنا عراقيين من الانبار , وسألتهم عن وجهات نظرهم , وجدت وجهتي نظر متناقضتين , واحدة تقول ان مجلس صحوة الانبار هو مشروع يدعمه الاحتلال بالمال والسلاح , وهذا عنوان كاف بحد ذاته لمعرفة انه مشروع ضد المقاومة الوطنية في الانبار...
ووجهة النظر الثانية تشجع ابو ريشه رغم انها تعترف انه كان طوال حياته سلاب ( قاطع طريق) لكن بعد تعرض اقاربه للقتل من قبل القاعدة , قرر ان يواجهها ويطلب العون من الجيش الامريكي لتسليح عدد من شباب العشائر هناك , ونجحت مبادرته وسانده الجيش الامريكي بالسلاح , بينما الحكومة العراقية رفضت مساعدته , هذه حسب افادة الشخص الذي هو عضو عشيرة منخرطة مع برنامج صحوة الانبار,
قلت له طيب ما الفرق بين القاعدة والمقاومة الوطنية؟
قال القاعدة دخلت علينا من كل الحدود الجنوبية والغربية الى الانبار ( يقصد السعودية وسوريا والاردن ) وهو يقول انهم يملكون السلاح , في البداية ظنت المقاومة الوطنية انهم جاؤوا لمساندتها, ثم تبين ان للقاعدة اجندة مختلفة , فهم قتلوا اعدادا كبيرة من رجال الدين وشيوخ العشائر واساتذة الجامعات واطباء ورجال الشرطة وضباط الجيش , بتهمة انهم عملاء...
وفجروا بيوت وقتلوا ابرياء وعوائل بحجة ان احد افراد العائلة يعمل مع الجيش العراقي او الشرطة العراقية...
وأيضا هاجمت الاحياء السكنية السنية او الشيعية وهجرت الكثير من العوائل تحت اسباب طائفية ...
بينما المقاومة الوطنية عندها هدف رئيسي هو مقاتلة جيش الاحتلال...
عندما تعب أهل الانبار من وجود القاعدة وعدم قدرتهم في السيطرة عليها, لان اي واحد من افراد العشائر لو وجد عنده سلاح سوف يلقى به في سجون الاحتلال ( خاصة سجن بوكه في البصرة
وجد الناس ان ملاذهم الوحيد هو الاستنجاد بالجيش الامريكي وعقد صفقة معه : اعطينا سلاح , نقضي على كل من يعمل عمليات ضدكم , حتى يسود الأمان في المدينة....
قلت للرجل : الا ترى ان التفسير المنطقي للموضوع هو ان القاعدة كانت تعمل لصالح المحتل؟
قتلت خير الرجال عندكم , افسدت وشوهت صورة المقاومة الوطنية , أرهبتكم الى درجة جعلتكم تلوذون بالمحتل ليعطيكم سلاح وتوفرون له الأمان والقبول في مدنكم ؟
الا تظن ان له يدا في ادخال هذه العناصر الغريبة عدوة العراقيين , دمرتكم واذتكم حتى وصلتم لمرحلة اللوذ بجنود الاحتلال باعتبارهم المخلصين لكم من محنتكم؟
قال : اي طبعا ممكن الاحتمال وارد جدا ......
سألته طيب أين ذهبت المقاومة الوطنية؟
قال طلبنا منهم ان يوقفوا عملياتهم ضد الجيش الامريكي داخل المدن , قلنا لهم اذهبوا الى الطريق الخارجي واضربوهم هناك ,
قلت له طيب انت عندما قابلتك قبل سنة كنت تفتخر انك من المقاومة الوطنية, وحين سقطت الفلوجة خرجت انت منها وكنت احد افراد وفد المفاوضات مع الجيش الامريكي ....
ما الذي تغير؟
قال نريد ان نشارك في العملية السياسية ...
قلت في نفسي. هممم..... صار الرجل يبحث عن كرسي ومنصب في الحكومة , سبحان الله كيف يتغير الناس؟
الان صار مثله الأعلى ابو ريشه , الذي حظى بمصافحة بوش وظهر على الشاشات كأنه بطل , والكل يتكلم عن الاموال الهائلة بين يديه لا ادري من اين جاءته ؟ من مقاولات مع الجيش الامريكي ام مجرد مكافات له لتغري الاخرين ان يكونوا مثله ؟
فهمت ايضا ان في الانبار 17 عشيرة , وان 4 عشائر وقعت على اتفاق للتعاون من الجيش الامريكي ,
يعني الان الانبار منقسمة على نفسها كما هو حال كل العراق ....
لا توجد انقسامات طائفية سنية شيعية , بل بين الفئة الواحدة انقسامات بعضها مع الاحتلال وبعضها ضد الاحتلال,
كما حدث تماما ايام الاحتلال البريطاني للعراق...
وكتب لنا التاريخ اسماء الوطنيين واسماء الانتهازيين, وهم موجودون في كل زمان ومكان......
*****************************************************************************
ماذا فعل هذا الاحتلال القبيح بالعراق والعراقيين؟
مزق وحدتهم وشتت ارائهم وجعل بعضهم عدوا لبعض...
لكنني مازلت أراهن على العراقيين الوطنيين المخلصين , الذين لا تبدلهم اغراءات الاحتلال ولا تهديداته ...
ان شالله ينتصرون ويستلمون قيادة البلاد يوما ما , ويتوجهون به نحو طريق النجاة , ويسود الامان والسلام في بلاد الرافدين من جديد .........
ويعود العراقيون من دول الشتات الى بيوتهم في العراق ليبنوا وطنا جديدا مليئا بالمحبة والأمان والسلام .....
آمين ...
