A View Fro Baghdad
The new Baghdad security plan started , many resident Shiites& Sunnis are skeptical about it, at the same time they wish the plan will succeed they have Many fears and doubts that. There are many reasons for that. My be the main reasons is there lack of confidence in the security forces, but before one can suggest some points that can contribute for the success of this plan, one must determine who the enemy is the enemies to the security in Iraq are will known. They are 1-The insurgent and their supporters (mostly Sunni Arabs from outside the country and -al Qaeda affiliated persons) 2-The militias and their supporters mostly Shiites from various parts of Iraq, and Iranian backed groups & criminal gangs operating in Baghdad, there are to threats have been identified not only by ordinary peace loving Iraqis, but by the American also, In fast the American military have labeled the militias as the No. 1 threat to Americans in Iraq. Thus the new security plan, which is based on the new, or let as say, the revised American strategy for Iraq is based on these 2 factors of course there are other factors that the new strategy has taken into consideration, but those 2 are the most important.
Objectives of security plan
As one might think is to pacify Baghdad, by stopping the sectarian cleansing tacking place now, hence to give Iraq a new hope, this means preventing Iraq from slipping into an open civil war, which if happened will be a great setback to American national security interests, in the whole world. In order to achieve this plan the following tasks should be carried out.
TASKS
1-Get rid of the militias and all their supporters – especially Iran. 2- Purge the Iraq security forces as much as can be done. 3- Fight the insurgent and deny them the ability to operate in Baghdad & take advantage of Sunni neighborhood where they might find some sympathy for their cause. 4- Decrease the social tensions between Iraqis. 5- Achieve national reconciliation between Iraqis. 6- Provide services to Baghdad inhabitants, & make Baghdad a city that one can live in again. 7- Other tasks relevant to the objectives.
Now The Americans need the cooperation of Iraqis in providing enough troops for the implementation of this plan. The Iraq Government will use the forces of the MOD –Iraqi army- & MOI – Police & other security forces. It is well known fact that these 2 forces are infiltrated by militias to certain degrees. The MOI forces are greatly infiltrated by militias & their Loyalty is not to the MOI but to their political & sectarian parties. Although the government is Shiite& some Sunni dominated government but it is says that’s the government for all Iraqi. This is the reason for the Sunni distrust in this government in fact. This government depends on the( sadrists) for their political support in parliament & no one believes that it will agree on taking steps to disband or fight the militias responsible for the trouble in Baghdad .The Iranian backed( mahdi) army . Thus the government is considered by the Sunni as part of the problem rather as part solution. On the other hand the Shiites also distrust the same government, especially when PM Speaks about an all Iraq government & an even handed treatment of all sects in Iraq. In fact news has leaked lately that differences between Americans & Iraqi official about the Implementation of this plan are the reason. Why the plan has been delayed. While Americans want to start to work in all Baghdad districts, Iraqi officials want to start in Sunni neighborhood. While minimizing the danger of Mahdi militias threat thus to ensure the success of this plan .The following points should be taken into careful consideration.
1- Even handedness when dealing with all Iraqis. 2- Humane treatment of people during neighborhoods inspections & other operations. 3- Bipartisan behavior by Iraqi government forces. 4- Providing services to all neighborhoods. 5- Taking all steps to reduce social tension Iraqi factions. this can be achieved as follows. A- Avoiding all frictions points between Shiite and Sunnis. B- Closing all borders with Iran & Syria. Especially Rabea Border in north west Iraq. Using Forces from old Iraqi army. C- Insisting on the Iraq government that the plan be implemented & manner. D Releasing all prisoners who have no case against them ASAP. Dear Sir. I am Sure If The all Answer Send To You About IRAQ Are Fulfilled. IRAQ Will Find Peace And Stability Quickly. GOD Bless all Working to help Iraqi people. With Best Love from all to you Chief.
