With all our support for the statement by the President of
Kurdistan on Baker ـ
Hamilton report, but I would like to draw the attention of
the Kurdish people and Kurdistan political leadership to the
following important points:
1 -
That is true that the recommendations of the Baker-Hamilton
detract from the political sovereignty of Kurdistan and pays
no attention to the sacrifices and the hopes of the Kurdish
nation, but this must not lose our patience because of some
malicious and unfair recommendations by some maniacs persons
and malevolent on the Kurdish people gains and this must not
lead us to stoop to the front of our enemies of the Arabs
chauvinistic and Islamists fascists. A year ago, in response
to a question, Should the Kurdish people believe in
America?, I wrote in one of my articles: The Kurds should
not ratify everything, but they must also do not reject
everything, but they must accept the good intentions of the
United States of America and try to interference to correct
in its decisions’ tracks by dialogue if that is possible.
Today, I say that the Kurds should be expressing their
protest in a meaningful way. Kurds after a long struggle and
great sacrifices are smarter than repeat the mistakes of the
cold-war world. Our political discourse must be conscious
and not emotional. The emotional reaction is not in our
interest and can harm us more than help us.
2 -
Even if the government of President Bush did not embrace the
recommendations of the Baker-Hamilton, this report could
consider warning of the dangers of the future. Kurds and
Kurdish political leadership must be prepared themselves for
the worst conditions, simply because the mentality who wrote
this report represents a large part of the political mood of
the American people and political elite. I believe that the
American Democratic Party, which is expected to win the
forthcoming presidential elections, one of the strongest
proponents of this report and this means that the Kurds
could face difficult and dangerous political situations in
the future.

Today, we see that the Russians, who have a desire to
dispute the Americans everywhere to respond to the tragic
losses in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, already is trying
to return to the Middle East through troubled areas. In my
mind, they are playing a negative role and a troublemaker in
Iraq, Lebanon and Sudan. Russia as a permanent member of the
Security Council is so far behind building the Iranian
nuclear threat to the region and I believe that, together
with China very candid so unyielding sanctions by the
Security Council on Iran and Syria, and they have mysterious
positions of the political process in Iraq. I think that the
Russians, to some extent China, do not see the interest in a
calm Iraqi front. Therefore most probably are, at least
morally, aiding the formation of the regional media and the
continuation of terrorist groups, which called Iraqi
resistance. Region appears to be about to be repeated time
of the Cold War between Moscow and Washington. In the past,
the superpowers fought in our region through the internal
wars and internal strife, therefore, we do not wish to
return balance polar region, because restoring balance means
increasing tension within the enticements that the balance
of forces outside the region. If the balance would mean the
democratization of the countries of the region, the positive
balance was given the opportunity to build the region, but
the building alliances and the price often been bargaining
and will be on the land of Kurdistan and the rights of the
Kurdish nation. The question here is: What is the
relationship between the Kurds and all the changes in the
balance of power in region? I think that the Baker-Hamilton
report could be an example for us to know that how can
change the balance of power dramatically so threatens all
political gains, therefore Kurdish political leadership must
be taken into account the emergence of new forces in the
region and build strategic relationships with them within
the Kurdistan National Standards. Kurds must not antagonize
any party to other parties and without reason.
