Iran wants to commit genocide against Kurdish refugees in northern Iraq.

 


Iran wants to commit genocide against Kurdish refugees in northern Iraq.

The Iranian regime gave an ultimatum to Iraqi kurdistan to disarm Iranian Kurdish rebels in the region.


Iran gave a date that should be dewn 22 september 2023 last ultimatum to the rebels to be disarmed. do you know why the Iranian regime made such a hasty ultimatum against Kurdish rebels because soon we are approaching the anniversary of Zhina Amini's revolution and Iran is afraid of the anniversary of Zhina Amini's revolution.Iran is afraid to do something that local and international media will occupy themselves with before the anniversary of the women's revolution.

The Iranian regime cannot control this time whether there would be a revolution against the regime on Zhina Amini's anniversary.

after Zhina Amini's movement in iran, the Iranian regime has thought that the threat to the regime comes in from kurdistan.

the Iraqi government agrees with the Iranian regime and 80% of the Iraqi parliament are supporters of the Iranian regime .

Now the United States must help the Kurdish movement against the Iranian regime.

All Kurds around the world should send letters to the Pentagon asking for help against Iranian threats to the Kurdish region of northern Iraq.



Iranian attack on East Kurdistan forces.

For the first time, Iran has set a deadline of September 22 to close the headquarters of eastern political parties in the south. At the same time, Iran agreed with the Iraqi government to do this. The agreement consists of several main points, all of which are related to Kurdistan. This kind of treatment reflects a number of new features in Iran-Iraq-Kurdistan relations.


As Iranian researcher Hamid Reza Azizi told me at the Klingedel think tank, Iran is creating problems and making Iraq its manager. Iran's intention is to increase the power of the central government in the region, especially in the fields of security and border protection.


While this Iraqi government is an opportunity for Iran because it is the first time there is a government that is completely Iranian. The person appointed by Iraq to oversee the funeral is Iraqi government security adviser Qassim al-Arji. Qassem, a member of the Badr Jamaat, has lived in Iran for many years, has done a lot of intelligence work with the Iranians, is a Persian scholar and shares Iran's worldview for the region.



I am currently working on a work in English on this issue. Here I summarize my view. Opinions agree that Iran is more serious about this issue this time. Both the PUK, the KDP and others emphasize the seriousness of Iran. The reason for its seriousness is the weakness of the Kurds within themselves and against Baghdad.




In addition to setting a deadline, Iran is putting more pressure through Baghdad. Some attribute this to the fact that the current government in Baghdad is much more Iranian, which makes it easier for Iran in this regard.


This situation makes some see the pressures as part of the process of Iraq's domination of Kurdistan. What is interesting to me is why Iran is doing this when, according to many people close to the Eastern forces, these forces have no influence or threat to Iran. Why is Iran putting pressure on the PUK and KDP, which have handled this issue well so far?


Hamidreza believes this is part of what Iranians call an attempt to shake hands. This issue is very complex, and I will briefly discuss it here, because it is a very influential part of shaping Iran's worldview and foreign policy. The issue of shaking hands dates back to the US invasion of Iraq, and since then Iranians and many Western leftist analysts have used the concept to say that the United States is trying to shake hands with Iran.


Nowadays, this issue is mostly seen behind Israel, especially after the Abrahamic Agreement between the Gulf countries and Israel. But in fact, to me, the issue of shaking hands is more like a myth. From this perspective, it is more rooted in another Iranian concept or worldview, which is oppression. The concept of oppression itself is deeply rooted in the Shiite worldview. But after the Islamic Republic, it went to another level. The Indian-American thinker Homi Baba further illustrates this relationship in an introduction to The Sufferers on Earth. For Baba, the Shiite Sahwa became the basis of the Islamic Revolution of Iran in the 1960s and 1970s. The thesis developed by Khomeini is essentially a Marxist thesis, which also exists in Third World liberation movements.


What did the basic work was Ali Shariati, who read Fanon while studying in Paris and then translated the sufferers of the earth into Persian. In the view of the French thinker Gil Keppel, Shari'ah changed the distinction between the oppressor and the oppressed into the Qur'anic concept of the arrogant and the oppressed. Thus, the theory of class struggle became part of the Islamic discourse.

I did this fox hunt to explain the background of the concept of waving and waving. In my opinion, shaking hands is another form of the concept of oppression. Iran is not currently shaken hands, but countries such as Pakistan, Afghanistan, Central Asia and Iraq, except Azerbaijan, all have good or better relations with the United States. The Gulf countries are not trying to shake hands with Iran, but are more afraid that Iran will shake hands with them from Gaza, Iraq and Yemen. Countries such as Qatar, Oman and Yemen have ties with Iran, Saudi Arabia is at peace and China's rise has strengthened Iran's support. Therefore, the claim of shaking hands expresses the fact that Iran does not want to be prevented from doing what it is doing in the region.




But there is an unmentioned dimension to this issue: the Zangazur Strait, which connects Iran, Armenia and Azerbaijan. If Azerbaijan can gain control of this strait, Turkey and Azerbaijan will be directly connected, Iran will be isolated from the region, and Azerbaijan will replace Iran as an energy source for Turkey.


Iran is classified as a medium-sized country. Moderate power is a situation in which others, especially the powers, cannot easily incorporate them into their plans, but they cannot provide their strategies alone. Therefore, Iran is looking for opportunities to impose its goals. However, in literature, Iran sees itself as a powerful country and always considers itself an equal to the powers. This situation is part of Iran's supreme illusion and pride.


But now Iran is more concerned about its internal affairs than consolidating its hegemony. The threat to the eastern parties is more symbolic to convey a message inside. Thus, Iran is achieving several objectives in this step: First, to take advantage of the Iraqi state, to continue the policy of further shaking hands with the PUK and KDP, while ending the federalism of Iraq and further centralizing it.


But the dimension that may be more important to the Iranians is the further withdrawal of Turkish power from Kurdistan. Turkey is another moderate country pursuing its own regional agenda. Iran and Turkey are two countries with imperial backgrounds that treat each other as two centers. Thus, they never come into direct contact with each other, quietly maintaining their direct boundaries. But by proxy, or through other forces, they compete elsewhere. At the same time, they often cooperate and support each other. For example, they have often attacked Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) territory in coordination. The Kurdish forces in Turkey and Iran may treat them as friends and enemies, which is a kind of political stupidity, but Iran and Turkey treat the Kurdish forces as a tool to manage the margins.


The last dimension that may be of interest is superpower, which includes the United States, its allies, and China. To my knowledge, the United States has a very weak low-level relationship with the Iranian opposition, without distinction. Under Obama, the United States suspended all meetings with the Iranian opposition as a message that it does not aim to change the regime, and this continued under Trump. A small window is now open, but it doesn't have much effect. My contacts in Washington and Erbil tell me that although the United States allows lobbying by certain forces, it is by no means a priority. The opposition parties are trying to contact the international community, but their efforts are in vain.
