Post - referendum lessons


Despite the silence expressed by Erbil, but some of the reactions and statements issued, it seems Kurdish leaders who bet on the draft referendum and wanted to be a stage opposite to the pre-referendum in the political and media movement and external relations, these leaders are forced to enter the process of evaluation and reading of the process of the decision he carried The Kurds the consequences of what they were waiting for, and consequences did not calculate, and the implications are indispensable.
The first lesson learned by the Kurds was the mistake of reading international and regional positions and exaggerating the positive evaluation of the relations woven by the Kurds with the centers of power and the active and pivotal states whose positions could be in favor of the Kurdish independence project.
A large and dangerous project in the size of its political, security and economic implications will change the borders and areas of national security of countries and nations in the region, which would not have been easy to pass on the premise of the right of peoples to self-determination. As well as the usual diplomatic discourse, and not only if some of the hasty advisers, or some adventurous policy makers, are tempted to pass the draft referendum without the positions and reactions that amount to the threat of war, the economic and financial blockade and the strangulation of the region. And the difference.
It seems that the international and regional environment is not prepared to accept the idea of ​​a Kurdish state, no matter how much its marketers are trying to define its importance to the West, and that it deals with the importance of the international community, To a previous Western mistake and a strategic need for what some capitals and research centers see in the picture and shape of this region of the world after a quarter of a century.
The second lesson in Iraq was the loss of half a century of strong relations between the Kurdish leaders and Iraqi Shiite political and religious forces and forces that represented the cornerstone of the project of political change in Iraq. The struggle, joint action and general principles that governed the history of relations between the two sides served as a solid vision and solidified confidence. Which is the basis of these distinguished relations, some Kurdish leaders are no longer interested in the position of the reference itself, but there is a The official statement of the Ministry of Awqaf in response to the position of the sheikh of Al-Azhar, the statement contained sectarian incitement and unnecessary provocation if the souls were not immersed in the logic of antagonism and go in the rivalry to the sidelines of the sectarian alignment And remind others that the Kurds Sunnis belong to the other side in the sectarian equation tense now.
There are hands in Kurdistan seem ready to market the relations between the Shiites and Kurds to the point of estrangement and the burning of an important history of the relations of communities and peoples and sects in this region, which lives in the past and claims that it plans for the future.
The third lesson is also related to the second lesson. The sectarian problem seems deeper than some people are trying to express. Neither strategic alliances nor common understandings and interests are capable of erasing a memory burdened by a sense of sectarian affiliation that reminds others of the problem of identity and its branches. The Iraqi national identity is shorter and weaker than all formulations Which tried to highlight the existence of belonging to geography at times and a common history is close to other times begging the tools of oppression and violence and coercion and persuasion three times, the national identity thinkers to dismantle the gas national and sectarian rivalries and the presence of heavy history and heritage Ruling on the minds and culture of present generations, and then provide a convincing magic recipe that makes the national identity that fascinating magician that brings together people and does not differentiate them, and convince them to live together in this spot of the land to achieve their interests and their self and build their future without a win and no destructive struggle or constant search for differences and differences Ethnic and religious groups, who read the statement of the Union of Forces (Sunni) and some political and academic Sunni parties on the referendum and the position of the central government will ensure that the concepts of participation and responsibility of solidarity and balanced representation in the authorities did not convince others to take responsibility Rueh about the Iraqi state, community and pragmatic The interests of attitudes and repudiation of the national heritage of the recent political and the clearest features of this speech, but some went to the comparison between the tongue Arab state and a majority Shiite Kurdish state, a Sunni nationalist doctrine to choose the second.
Do you see the maturity of the Iraqis to the democratic system representative representation of the logic of the majority and minority and devote their efforts to good governance, which guarantees the dignity and interests of the human? Before sacrificing everything for political rights, then lose natural and political rights for the happiness of the state of the community or the nation of nationalism, which exceeded the era of globalization !! , When the logic of ideology diverge in favor of the logic of rationality? It's an open invitation to toast ?? !!!!!!.
