Massod Barazani Iraqi
Kurdstan Dictator
In the last 3 weeks the North
of Iraq witnessed increased tension between the central government and the Kurd
leader in Irbil Massod Barazani. He
rules as a self appointed governor because his term was ended more than 2 years
ago and he dissolved the Kurd parliament so as to remain more in power.
He also controlled more land
following Daesh control of major cities in 2014 extending his control over the
oil rich area Kirkuk. He controlled
the Kurd and others in the area under his control with fear and oppression like
at the time of Saddam Hussein. They
made big wealth for their personal interests from the oil revenue that they
control in Kirkuk. To extend his rule without questioning from
anyone he arranged the vote for separation from Iraq. Not
all Kurds supported that specifically those living in the main city Soliymaniah
who are the Talabani followers and they are considered for long time his
opponents.
The Iraqi government and
according to the constitution pushed the Barazani militia back and the
conservative Kurds and their parties supported the government and asked
Barazani to resign. Until now he
refused and there are tension between the Kurds which may lead to military
escalation between the two faction of Kurds those with and those against Barazani.
This turning point didn’t affect
the war against Daesh in which two area only left by the border with
Syria. Once the Syrian army reached near the border
there in Albokamal on the other border of Alqaaem the Iraqi forces will push
into these two area so as the terrorist will be in vice.
