The perfect controlled demolition.
Take a good look at the picture above because I will tell you what I see.
I see a damaged dome caused by an explosion set very professionally that the two minarets from the both sides weren’t effected by the explosion.
Tell me, Is this work of few terrorists who wants to finish the job as fast as possible?
The one who did this, entered the mosque comfortably carrying explosions, he had all the time to study the construction of the building and find the perfect angles to set the explosions in a way that only the dome will be destroyed.
This is a professional, controlled demolition and the bombs set by demolition experts.
Attwar, the TV Anchor
Now, let’s talk about the death of the three Iraqi journalists.
TV anchor Attwar, age 26 years is a significant young woman born in Samarra, moved to Baghdad just 3–4 years ago, Attwar worked for Al-Jazeera first and then she moved to Al-Arbyia.
I am not writing Attwar’s autobiography here but this has connection to the events, Attwar (I think you are smart enough to know that she is a Sunni) was well-known of her support for the Iraqi cause and blaming the occupation for the mess in Iraq.
One ex-Abu Ghraib prisoner tells this story about Attwar:
When I came out through the gates of Abu-Ghraib there was TV team waiting outside asked me for an interview, I said yes, then came TV anchor Attwar and asked “How do you fell no…. “she couldn’t finish her question because she burst in tears when she saw how do I look like, bare feet, torn clothes….
This is an example of Attwar mentality.
What the media didn’t told on Attwar’s death is this:
Attwar and her other two colleagues found dead but the TV team was four members, bad news four the US but one of the team survived the assassination to tell this:
Attwar being born in Samarra, her relatives and friends are still there, she managed to interview eyewitnesses on the explosion and people live in the area around the mosque.
Notice, they found the TV-team’s bodies later but didn’t found the documentary she made,
Who benefit from killing Atwwar, Sunnis? She is a Sunni. Resistance? She sympathise with the resistance. Shiite riot? Samarra is dominated by Sunnis.
Zalamy Khalilzad weird message.
Sunni Clerical Association of Muslim Scholars, issued a 4 points condemnation letter to the bombing of shrine in Samara, You can see a picture of the letter here (Arabic), I don’t want go translating the whole letter but point 2 in the letter is a very important point.
It says the following:
SCAS are right, Zalamy Khalilzad announcement in public was meant to hit two birds in one stone, first an advertisement to the world that the US wants a united Iraq (for the public consumption only), second and the mean reason is he wanted to remind the Iraq alliances Shiites that they still under the US control.
Worth to notice that all news agancies wrote Khalilzad announcment as: During a rare news conference, Khalilzad.…example
By the way today the so called Al-Qaeda in Iraq condemned the bombing, Baath party condemned the bombing and many fractions of Iraqi resistance condemned it also.
An important question to ask: Whose side are we on?
KB,
The US military is supporting the government. The government is made up from groups who chose to participate in its formation. Since the Kurds and Shia chose to participate, and the Sunnis did not (until recently), why are you surprised that the government is so ‘flavored?’
If the sunnis would throw their weight into the political process, things would be more balanced. Simple math shows that sunni/kurd/secular parties could balance the shia in terms of sheer electoral power.
There is a clear path forward. It has always been there and it was never hidden. The question is, when will the sunnis stop their obstinance? Anyone with common sense can realize that the US would be happy and eager to protect and promote the interests of non extreme shia groups in Iraq.
“There is a clear path forward. It has always been there and it was never hidden.”
And that path has s name: “Project for the New American Century”
I guess the Sunnis have higher ideals than becoming part of a neocon empire.
KB,
Why must you always respond with ideological crap?
Why not use your own head and your own common sense?
How can you dispute that if all parties engaged in the democratic political process that is being established for the first time in Iraq, it wouldn’t be better?
That is what has been on the table from day 1. All of your conspiracy theories aside, this is a reasonable option. Why shouldn’t the majority shia have legitimate political power? why shouldn’t the sunni kurd assyrain turkoman etc. all participate in a political process that establishes a legitimate rule of law and guarantees minority rights?
Yap and howl all day long — post conspiracy links — but those arent answers.
Charles, you are using the same ‘mantra’ again and again. I just don’t buy it. This is not a true democratic process; this is an American controlled process designed to suit their own interests — not the Iraqi’s. Just leave the country and let them find their own way.
KB,
You are incapable of discussing this ‘yourself’ outside of the conspiracy theories you have swallowed.
Why these nebulous generalities? What makes the process ‘untrue’? Are the German/Japanese democracies untrue? Bottom line is there would be NO democratic process at all if it weren’t for US/UK. Is that ‘more’ true?
What are you talking about? Did we limit participation? Did we set some ground rules inconsistant with a legitimate democratic process? Give us some facts. How did the US control the process, and what parts of this control have delegitimized it. Be specific please.
“How did the US control the process, and what parts of this control have delegitimized it.”
Bremer simply hijacked the Iraqi constitution:
Bremer also privatized the most important government-owned enterprises and turned them over to American companies:
This is not democracy. This is colonialism/imperialism.
KB,
Yes yes you have posted links and text excerpts here many times — that is great!
But what did the US actually do to delegitimize the process of selecting a government, elections, etc.
Did we control who can form a political party?
Did we place restrictions on who could participate in elections?
What did we do to limit the political process?
One point you could make is that the US probably didn’t want high level Baathists forming political parties. But quite frankly I don’t know if that is the case. I think the shia dominated government has purged many baathists, but certainly not all of them.
Did the US enact and enforce some law/decree that controlled the political process? If so what was it?
Give me facts not dogma.
Charles, it’s useless to discuss these matters as long as the country is occupied. The US neglects that a majority (82%) of the population want to troops to leave. Furthermore, article 16 in the constitution says: “It is forbidden to have foreign military bases in Iraq.” Just pay for all the damage you have done and leave the country.
KB,
That’s a really intellectual statement. Let me try to translate:
It is useless to discuss anything about Iraq and its future during this critical stage in its history as it teeters between a democratic future and fascism/totalitarianism, because I don’t like the fact that the US is in the country.
Let’s just stick our heads in the sand and pretend it never happened.
Charles, as I’ve said many times: the US is the problem. You are the one sticking your head in the sand.
