The salvation from the current political and security chaos in Iraq
As a result of war and occupation on Iraq, and the destruction of the state and its institutions which followed, the U.S. administration tried to impose a political agenda in Iraq through a formulation of a scenario called [political process]. This process was based on sectarian and ethnic division that brought forces of the same sort who supported the war and occupation of Iraq.
Over nearly 7 years the “political process” did not result in anything but ferocious fights between the forces and the parties; who were part of this process in order to gain as much privileges and influence in power and wealth. This conflict resulted in prolongation of the political chaos, an insecurity in Iraq and exacerbated poverty, destitution and a huge lack of social and health services.
The Elections, which was one of the mechanisms of imposing the “political process”, has never been able to solve the issue of the power struggle, because all of the elections held in Iraq did not exceed the limits of the sectarian and ethnic quota. And that means merely a reproduction of the same forces that are currently in power.
It is known that all of the elections have been characterized by many farces such as fraud, political assassinations and delaying of announcing the results until agreements among the influential forces are reached. However, after every election, we would witness an increase of violence and terrorist activities as part of political arm twisting among these forces.
National reconciliation was one of the themes to bring the political forces that did not participate in the process of power sharing with the forces that supported the war and occupation. The reconciliation was projected by the occupation administration to involve the pan-Arab nationalist forces who were excluded from the formation of new Iraq, to impose security and political stability. However, fears of the parties in power (political Islam, Shiite in particular and Kurdish nationalists) from the involvement of the pan-Arab nationalist forces, has led to undermine the national reconciliation.
In the midst of the current political condition, neither the occupation nor the successive governments were able to establish a state in Iraq. The conflict among the parties and the forces has always been a key factor in the lack of state formation in Iraq. Moreover, the conflict on the identity of the State, whether, an Islamist Shiite, or Islamist Sunni, Arab nationalist, or federal moderate Islamist is another obstacle to establish the state.
The ongoing violence, which is another form of political conflict, will not end through a political process that was brought by the occupation. And the experience of nearly seven years of conflict between the political forces taught us that the violence would not be terminated, in fact it would only reproduce violence and terror. And what is happening today, such as restructuring old alliances and forming new ones and the escalation of the conflicts within the one party, is an explanation of how deep the crisis is. As a result we could hear the prime minister and a number of political parties, calling for an end to the rule of consensus (consensus democracy).
We call for a transitional government: a free, secular, non-ethnic – top of its agenda safety, bread, freedom
Forces of secularism, the liberal trends, the labor movement, the leftist, feminist, and student and youth groups in addition to those who rejected the occupation and the entire political process, the disaffected masses who were destroyed by the sectarian and ethnic conflict, extreme poverty, disease and lack of social services and corruption, are the other party in this society, these are the vast majority of Iraqi people who are looking for salvation from the tragic situation that has been going on for nearly seven years of war and occupation. We cannot find salvation in the “political process” that has not and will not produce anything other than sectarian and ethnic governments.
Salvation can be achieved by a formation of a free, secular and non-ethnic transitional government, top of its agenda safety, bread, and freedom works to implement the following items immediately:
At the political level:
The economic level:
The transitional government will work on holding a free and fair election after 6 months of its establishment. the mechanisms of organizing and preparing for the elections are to be as follows:
The solution above, which Iraq Freedom Congress puts in the hands of the people, is the only way to save them from the cycle of violence, terrorism and security and political chaos. It will improve their living conditions and open new prospects for their generations. Iraq Freedom Congress directed it’s appeal to all people of Iraq to revolve around this document for the eternal salvation.
