"Tehran,
which has set itself up as a sort of Vatican of Shiism, is fanning the flames
of division, while a number of Gulf monarchies want to consolidate Sunni extremism
by arming radical elements."
Ahmed Chalabi (above) is one of Iraq's most divisive figures, who is said to have been the source of the faulty information the Bush Administration used to invade in 2003. He now heads Iraq's Accountability and Justice Commission, which has disqualified hundreds of exclusively Sunni candidates.
Due to the fault of the
Americans, Iraq, that cradle of human civilization, may disappear from the map.
Decided by George W. Bush, Donald Rumsfeld, Dick
Cheney and that head of radical Zionism, Richard Perle, the
invasion of the country, in order to seize Iraq's oil wells, has exposed the
latent antagonisms that the bloody dictatorship of Saddam Hussein had suppressed
for decades. Today, all of the ingredients have combined for the break up of
the old Abbasid reign that has contributed so much to the development of world science
and culture. Indeed, as a legislative election campaign got underway yesterday,
in the background one caught a whiff of the score-settling among communities
that is so prejudicial to the future progress of the country.

A commission for Accountability
and Justice, established in 2008 for the “de-Baathification” of Iraq, but which
has no legal foundation, is in the process of pouring gasoline onto the fire.
Directed by Ahmed Chalabi,
a sulfurous character who is a former CIA agent known for being a bank
swindler, this body has eliminated around 500 candidates, some who are celebrities,
under the pretext that they've had ties with the Baath Party. One peculiarity
is this: the banished ones are Sunni and the banishers are Shiite. It's true
that Saddam Hussein favored the Sunni community and victimized Shiites to the
point of, for example, forbidding their religious processions. After an attack
against him, Saddam even gassed the Kurdish city of Halabjah, killing at least 5,000 women and children. He
left a legacy an insurmountable hatred among the three main communities in the
country [Suuni, Shiite and Kurd].
Iraqi Kurdistan already has
one foot in secession. It happens that the countries that neighbor Iraq are
doing everything they can to accentuate the climate of discord. Tehran, which
has set itself up as a sort of Vatican of Shiism, is fanning the flames of
division, while a number of Gulf monarchies want to consolidate Sunni extremism
by arming radical elements. In a sense, a war over influence has broken out
between Sunnis and Shiites and between regional powers who interpose their own Iraqis.
We mustn't forget that the leader of Iraq's Shiites is Ayatollah Ali Al-Sistani
… an Iranian. Israel had always dreamed of the Balkanization of the Near- and
Middle East in for the purpose of establishing its hegemony in the region. Its
dream is coming true.

A plan for the dismemberment
of Iraq into three states - Shiite, Sunni and Kurd - has existed since the
1980s. Apparently, working its way toward Syria, Saudi Arabia and others, this
plan is being executed. The Arab world is unfortunately paralyzed in the face
of this danger. The most retrograde regimes, such as the Saudi Wahhabites, are
instead concerned with concentrating on stifling the democratic whims of the
Arab people. The League of the same name [the Arab League], designed to at
least ring the alarm, is more preoccupied with perpetuating the Mubarak dynasty than anything
else.
