Bombs made inside the Green Zone

First — There are excel­lent reports, stud­ies and analy­sis about this wave of explo­sions, I will pub­lish them all in the com­ing days.

Sec­ond — You should read this report from Aki: “Deadly car bombs ‘made inside’ Green Zone” (h/t uruknet) — Maybe the peo­ple at Inside Iraq can find some answers — (Maliki indi­rectly admit today that the explo­sions are inside job).

How do I know (and every Iraqi) that the Iraqi gov­ern­ment and secu­rity is fake?

Sim­ply, the state­ment says that Al-Qaeda is the group behind the explo­sion, the Iraqi secu­rity raided a house in Ur neigh­bor­hood where the bombs were made.

Ur dis­trict (see: map) is a total Shi­ite neigh­bor­hood, most if not all the res­i­dent are Sadrists (if they liked or not). Unlikely that Al-Qaeda who are extrem­ists Sun­nis will rent a house and made their bombs in a Shi­ite area, let alone most of them Sadrsist.

Wafiq Al-Samari’ for­mer Tal­a­bani adviser wrote today (at last he wrote some­thing useful):

The explo­sions were very close to the Green Zone, which makes the Iraqi government’s story of accus­ing Al-Qaeda and Ba’ath Party unbelievable.

Iraqi politi­cians do not want to admit that secu­rity is a col­lec­tive respon­si­bil­ity… Secu­rity can­not be built on racism, sec­tar­ian, exclu­sion bases… The Iraqi gov­ern­ment started too early to dance on the “secu­rity achieve­ments” tunes employ­ing them to the elec­tion campaign.

- Al-Sumaria reported that there are three options before the Pres­i­den­tial Coun­cil to find a solu­tion for Kirkuk cri­sis — per­sonal opin­ion (and I am orig­i­nally from Kirkuk) I don’t think these pro­pos­als will accepted by the Kirkuk-Arabs, Kurds and Turk­men (unless Susan rice manged to pres­sure the Kurds to lower their demands).
