Now with completion of Iraq’s 22-member cabinet, following the parliament’s vote of confidence last Saturday to the remaining seven ministers, and Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kazemi’s tweet "this is vital in implementing our programme and delivering on our commitments to our people”, the nation is awaiting concrete measures to not just end the US military presence but also to receive compensation from certain countries for funding terrorists to destabilize Iraq, destroy its economy, and kill its people.
The parliament’s unanimous vote earlier this year in January for closure of US bases and expulsion of all American military personnel in the aftermath of Washington’s cowardly act of state terrorism in murdering two iconic anti-terrorist figures at Baghdad airport – Iran’s general Qassem Soleimani and Iraq’s general Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis – could not be implemented by caretaker Prime Minister Adel-Abdul-Mahdi who had formally resigned from his post in November 2019.
It should now be the foremost concern of the new prime minister, who has finally formed a functioning government, to notify the Americans in the bilateral talks scheduled to be held in the next few days, to pack up their bags and leave as per the legitimate demands of the Iraqi people.
Mustafa al-Kazemi ought to be resolute in defending Iraq’s sovereignty and the just demands of the Iraqi people, since the CENTCOM terrorists and their masters in Washington are notorious for their stone-walling tactics and inability to heed civilized words of diplomacy.
They should be told by Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein that any delay in this vital matter is detrimental to US interests and might endanger the safety of its unwanted personnel, who have a shady record of extraterritorial terrorism on Iraqi soil on the pretext of fighting Daesh, but actually to provide covert support for the macabrely murderous Takfiris.
Terrorism has not been completely eradicated from Iraq despite the dedicated efforts of the Hashd ash-Sha’bi or the Popular Mobilization Units (PMU), because of the illegal American military presence, coupled with the connection of the terrorists to the seditious Saudis.
This means Baghdad should urgently take up this vital issue with Riyadh, now that the parliament is expected to enact a law to sue Saudi Arabia and make it pay for the extensive damage caused by acts of terrorism carried out in Iraq by citizens of that country.
As specified recently by Abdel Hadi Sa’dawi, an influential member of the majority Fatah bloc in the Iraqi parliament: "it is the foreign minister’s job to hold Saudi Arabia accountable. He is required to take actions at the international forums and garner international support for a lawsuit to be filed before the [International Criminal Court], and for compensating the families of car bomb and suicide attack victims.”
Several groups of Iraq’s majority community have even called for severance of diplomatic ties with Saudi Arabia, given that country’s sinister and seditious record against the people of Iraq that includes Riyadh’s billions of dollars of aid to Saddam’s repressive Ba’th minority regime for the genocide of the Shi’a Arabs and the ethnic Kurds of Iraq, as well as the unwanted 8-year war against the Islamic Republic of Iran in the 1980s.
Saudi Arabia is trying to dupe the new Iraqi government with investments in its economy, but this is nothing but deceit given the deep enmity of the heretical Wahhabi regime with Iraqi Muslims.
Any laxity in this matter will prove costly to Iraq, since most of this money will flow into the coffers of anti-national elements and terrorist groups in order to keep Iraq in perpetual turmoil.
The government in Baghdad should realize that unlike Saudi Arabia, which is a spurious British created entity with no historical, geographical, or cultural roots, Iraq is the cradle of civilization with a bright future as prophesied in Islamic texts, and hence will remain among the centres of the globe long after the regime in Riyadh along with the Zionist regime and the US, cease to exist on the world map.
In view of these facts, Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kazemi shoulders a heavy responsibility and in order to make Iraq sovereign and independent he should seriously take up these issues of national importance, to close down the US bases and demand compensation from Saudi Arabia, as part of his promise to deliver on his commitments to the Iraqi people.
