The Muslims are the
most affected people by the terrorist attacks
Attacks in Baghdad are daily scenes
There are a lot of
doubts surrounding the war against terrorism which leads us to ask the
question, who are behind terrorist attacks and what are their real intentions?
If the world is genuine
in its war against terrorism, why then they not wage a real war rather than a
kind of knee jerks and sort of propaganda following these attacks in the West
while ignoring the suffering of the others such as in Iraq?
Real war against
terrorism is to prevent it with preemptive measures. When some one gets an infection should be treated
by medicine which get rids of the cause and not to treat the symptoms only. The same thing applies for the terrorism, by
cutting and drying its routes. This
means its ideology, states which enforce it, media that try to legalize or
support it, those who arm it, those who finance it, and the areas that incubate
it including the war zones.
What the world is
doing about terrorism is trying to treat its symptoms while leaving the cause
intact. You cannot dry a bad plant by
trimming its top leafs while leaving the route intact and its branches grow all
the directions. This is exactly what
happened for the last two decades. The
question is, could those who told the people that they do war against terrorism
are in fact playing double standard by supporting the terrorists in one hand
and trying to make the others to believe that they fight it with the other hand?
Islam as a religion
is completely against war and from its name it means peace, however as there
are fundamentalists and terrorists everywhere in the history of all religions, ideologies,
imperialism, occupations, there are such people within the Muslims who do not
follow the real peace principle of Islam.
The majority of Muslims are peace loving people and they denies any
killing against people who are not in direct war with them. It is in the Holy Quran that a killing of one
soul (any human soul) is as if killing the mankind.
In fact the Muslims
are the main people affected by the terrorists as many example occurring in
Iraq, Syria, Libya, Yemen, Beirut, and other countries. Daily in Iraq there are many people killed by
bombs, explosives, rockets, cars, and gun shootings since 2003. The Iraqis are fighting the Daiesh (ISIS) groups,
which occupied one third of their country since 2014. Everyone know who created Daiesh (ISIS) and who support them and why?
Airstrike is not
effective way and will not stop the terrorists but will make them more
determined to stay and use different means to perpetrate their attacks
next. President Putin declared similar statement
lately. Route drying of the states,
media, arms, finance and supports to those who are fighting them on the ground
in Iraq and Syria and others are the solution.
The recent UN resolution addressed these issues but on broad terms that
left it for interpretations. A real
resolution should specify the effective measures and make it mandatory rather
than leaving it for interpretations. It
is weak approach.
In short: the Muslims
are the most affected people by the terrorists and not the opposite. They suffering in their countries between
death and refugees and in the West by pointing unfairly and unjustly towards
them where most of them are sharing the building and the development of the Western
countries include the USA, as positive and active citizens like any one else
with peace, tax-paying, businesses, and playing active parts in all kind of services
and societies.
The attacks which
happen in the West such as France are nothing but drop in the ocean of the
suffering of the Iraqis for the last ten years especially since 2014. There are daily bloodshed, killing, and Iraqi
soldiers killed in their daily fight against the same terrorists groups who did
Paris bombs for the last years.
Those who are saying
as far as the war is not in our land, away from us in Iraq or Syria we are
safe; they are wrong and short-sighted.
The lesson is clear and the right way to get rid of the bite is even
more clear but it is up to the whole world to unite and find where and how to
end this terrorism.
