    Mosul Residents Fed Up With IS

    Mosul Residents Fed Up With IS
    By Judit Neurink


    ERBIL, Kurdistan Region - The killings and kidnappings of Yezidis by the Islamic State (IS/ISIS) are affecting the situation in Mosul, where the militants have become far less visible and where villagers have stepped in to terrorise the towns folk.



    There are less IS fighters in the streets, at the markets and the checkpoints, sources in Mosul report. The militants in their black outfits are hardly seen anymore.



    Meanwhile, looting has increased dramatically. IS supporters are mainly looting the homes of policemen and officers who left for fear of revenge by the radicals, and are taking the goods out of the city. Even herds of sheep are taken from the Kurdish left side of Mosul over the Tigris bridges towards Syria.



    “Most supporters are from the villages,” said a journalist still living in Mosul, speaking by phone. “They treat the city folk badly. They are lowly educated and badly behaved. They are gangs. We suffer badly.”



    He recounted how women, and even the men accompanying them, are beaten with sticks if the woman is wearing only a hijab (head scarf) instead of the now obligatory niqab which covers most of the face.



    “A Mosul man would never do that, but it is common in the villages,” the journalist said. He added that the looting is also mainly done by the villagers who came with to the town with the IS, or daash as it known locally.



    “Some of the Mosul people joined daash because they had no income, no money. But after they saw their mistake, they ran away.”



    Mosul residents are fed up with IS, the journalist said. “We Muslims are in a critical situation, and we cannot speak out now. Islam is the big loser of this bloody game. It is too terrible what they did to the Christians and the Yezidis. We have always been a mixed town.”



    “They are criminals,” said spokesman Ghanem al-Abed of the Sunni Resistance against former Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, that started working with IS when it took over Mosul on June 10.



    “What they are doing to Christians and Yezidis is not human. After they killed the Sunni leaders in prison, they became criminals.”



    IS has in the past weeks picked up former Baath officials that had joined the group, as well as policemen and military men who had openly repented to IS to be able to stay in the city.



    At the same time, IS fighters have been killed, said a policeman who fled the city. He knew about 20 of them being shot, possibly in connection to a ban on cigarettes imposed by the IS, which has had a major effect on the income of tradesmen.



    IS has made itself unpopular not only with that ban, but also the prohibition for girls over 12 to go to schools and changing school curriculums to Arabic, maths and Islam. Many people have no income. Many hate the way their Christian neighbors have had to leave, the policeman said.



    “There is the fear and the killings. Most daash in Mosul are villagers, and they operate in gangs. I just heard they killed a female doctor at home; probably because she was alone.”



    He said he had been told of minor acts of resistance by the people of Mosul, of elderly people swearing at them openly, women refusing to wear the niqab or people asking IS fighters when they would leave.



    “Now very few people are still cooperating with daash,” he said. “All former Baathists now are against them. Other groups stopped coordinating with them. Most of those people left.”



    According to Abed, the spokesman of the Sunni resistance, the time has come “to liberate Mosul.” Former governor Atheel Nujaifi has formed a force of 10,000 men to do so, he said. “We will start the fight to chase daash out of Mosul.”



    When told, the policemen openly wondered where the governor would have found such a number of able fighters, as none of the old colleagues he is in contact with seemed to be involved.



    But in Mosul the story is spread by people eager to be rid of IS. The journalist said he had heard rumors about a force of 15,000 men that would be led by the former police chief of Mosul.



    When asked if there will be cooperation with the Iraqi army, as is happening in Ramadi where Sunni fighters are confronting IS in the city, Abed is very clear that Mosul needs a completely Sunni force.



    “We will not work with the militia of Iran,” he said, referring to the Iraqi army, which mainly consists of Iraqi Shiites and is being assisted by the Shiite militias both from Iraq and neighbouring Iran. “Only Sunnis from Mosul will fight IS and then reinstall the security in the city.”

    Kurdish and Iraqi Parties Make Headway in Talks for New Government

    Kurdish and Iraqi Parties Make Headway in Talks for New Government
    By RUDAW


    BAGHDAD, Iraq - In their first round of talks on forming a new government in Baghdad, Iraqi and Kurdish groups agreed on the division of some parliamentary posts, based on the country’s religious and ethnic makeup.



    According to Tariq Gerdi, the representative of the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) in the negotiations, Shiite, Sunni and Kurdish negotiators agreed on Sunday on the leadership of all parliamentary committees.



    After months of political turmoil and conflict in Iraq’s Sunni regions, Kurdish parliamentarians and other political delegates returned to Baghdad last week to negotiate the Kurds’ participation in a new Iraqi government.



    “As Kurds, we will get the parliamentary committees for oil and gas, foreign relations, higher education, health and the provinces,” said Gerdi, who met with the Sunni parliament speaker, Salim al-Jibouri, together with his Iraqi and Kurdish counterparts.



    Gerdi said that the Shiites will preside over 14 committees, the Sunnis six, the Kurds five and one committee will be headed by other minority groups.



    “These posts are divided in a way that keeps the balance of Iraq’s different groups,” Gerdi told Rudaw.



    He added that the Kurds also retain the right to have representatives in the other committees led by their Shiite and Sunni counterparts.



    “These posts were decided based on the election wins of each party,” Gerdi added.



    Iraqi leaders are under pressure from the international community, particularly the United States, to form a new government and get the political process rolling.



    Iraq’s caretaker Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari echoed the views of Kurdish leaders at a press conference on Sunday, saying that the Kurds are keen to have a genuine participation in the Iraqi government.



    “But our experience shows that Baghdad doesn’t honor its promises,” Zebari worried.



    Zebari, one of the main negotiators in Baghdad, fell out last month with Iraq’s former prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, after the premier accused the Kurds of harboring “terrorists” in Erbil.



    “We are representing the people of the Kurdistan Region and we will insist on our demands,” said Zebari.



    “We have pointed out all the concerns of the Kurdistan Region and there is broad international support for the Kurds,” he added.



    The United States, Britain and other European countries have delivered military and logistical support to Erbil in its fight against the Islamic State (IS/ISIS). Meanwhile, they encourage Kurdish leaders to reach an agreement with Baghdad on forming a new government.

    The economic performance of the Iraq development did not materialize and time lost a lot
    Sinan Mohammed rida Al-Shabibi


    August 26, 2014

    Economy confront us economic problem at the individual level and at the community level. The problem is that multiple needs, and resources for those needs are limited. Because resources are limited, we must choose the needs that must be filled. In Iraq must satisfy the needs of many social and economic resources, whether financial or human negatively affected by wars, sanctions and the loss of opportunities for growth. it is clear that Iraq is facing the problem of choosing between needs and which are in fact economic objectives in various sectors at home and abroad.

    The conditions and problems of the large development worked to narrow the choices, we find it hard to identify them, and that needs to be filled as soon as possible because of missed opportunities for the individual and society. This means that time is an important economic variable, and thus its shortcut is a key objective.

    On this basis the Iraqi economy must grow rapidly by relying on mayati:
    The efficient allocation of productive resources, and using market methods in fixing it other than social sustainability projects where Government plays an important role in this area. The State also played an important role in the early stages of growth as a driving force for development.

    -That savings and investment rates to rise, including foreign investment, to activate it you should check the country's high level of economic, social and political stability.

    -The States that want to enjoy rapid growth must have high flexibility in the reception and adaptation of new and evolving technology.

    These properties must be available fast time even through which faster economic growth. These characteristics of development requiring an enabling environment in order to originate, and what characterizes this environment is providing economic and political stability. With regard to the economic environment, this play of monetary policy and the Central Bank plays an important role as the President and the first objective is economic stability based on price stability and financial stability which is essential for financial intermediation and create a stable environment in that area.

    It is clear that the causes of underdevelopment of the Iraqi economy is the inability to implement projects of national development plans and the predominance of ideological frameworks and the impact on the formulation and implementation of plans. This was one of the main causes of decline of production in General, and the circumstances of the war and the embargo was one of the main causes of the external debt in Iraq at the beginning of the 1980s and the impact on the future development of the country. The previous administration focused for the Bank and the Finance Ministry to tackle debt to achieve economic stability. Although the debt nature development the main objective of this treatment is to reduce the burden on the balance of payments.

    In this area were held in the Paris Club debt agreement (by Finance Minister Dr. Adel Abdul Mahdi) that paved the way for concluding agreements with the International Monetary Fund.

    Iraq's debt to the Paris Club reached $ 120 billion in January 2004. The Club decided to drop 80 percent. This is the highest percentage received by middle-income City State as Iraq. The reduction ratio or such high projection for low-income developing countries. On the other hand, the stages of the cancellation was generally in line with the various programmes of the International Monetary Fund, the first was the cancellation of 30% upon signing the Convention the Paris Club in November 2004.


    The second cancellation the 30% also was on 23 January 2005 when the standby credit agreement was signed with the Fund. As the third and final abolition of the 20% it has coincided with the second standby agreement with the IMF in November 2008. Thus closely between the IMF and the Paris Club agreements, successful negotiations with the Fund requires to be a good negotiator in the Paris Club.


    With regard to the characteristics of the Fund's programmes starting from September 2004 and ended in a stand-by agreement in 2011. They contributed to the lifting of restrictions on payments and trade as it focused on the stability of the exchange rate and allow the multiple exchange rates. And for the stability of the exchange rate, the main policy is to meet all the demand for foreign currency in case of insufficient foreign exchange reserves, and if sufficient foreign currency the dinar exchange rate will decrease.


    Although the Central Bank has achieved great success in stabilizing the exchange rate is the main goal, however the rest of the economy has not benefited from the stability provided by a bank product and this is not a Central Bank, but the problem of comparability of the investment in the private sector. The banks that received foreign currency were not active enough in lending. But funds were used in the filing abroad where adequate security is not available at home.


    The Central Bank has succeeded in providing foreign currency but the economy as a whole has not been able to invest these positive achievements owing to the difficult economic decisions, delays in project implementation. This delay in decision-making or execution hampered development, which in turn led to the loss of time for the community and the complexity of the development process and increasing their costs and this can be said that while the financial sector has the real sector did not enjoy similar success.


    Thus, for the relative success of the financial sector, the efficiency in the implementation of the project on the physical level were limited but the loss also resulted from the Iraq war and economic blockade, moreover, instability and collapses after 2003.


    The time lost to be productive economy low in General, the world adopts new methods from Iraq has not been able to match. Even after 2003, we lost more than ten years have not achieved true development because of political instability. Thus, beyond time, the cost of the reconstruction and development of the largest developmental opportunities missed by many in Iraq. When we can see that the time is limited, the productivity and efficiency are very important for achieving social and economic objectives. may prove us that the time available is unlimited but when compared to the goals we want to achieve it certainly remains limited. The delays in the implementation of development projects and increases the time that is needed, and is contributing to slower growth rates.


    It is important to understand the importance of time, especially as the previous period have been lost and productivity we now need more effort and higher efficiency. At a time when Japan and Germany made a big jump in the 10 years after the second world war, we see that same year for Iraq has been delayed, which will increase the cost of development. Also, because of the delay in growth due to political factors, political instability and economic factors by BP implementation of investment programmes.
