 There are reports that groups affiliated with the Iranian regime in Iraq have announced that they will surrender their weapons on the condition that the Peshmerga also surrender their weapons to Iraq.Genocid against the kurds in iraq

 

 This is something that is included in the human mind.
Because those who are in Iraq are Arabs and are affiliated with another country and do not have an ethnic problem and have not been subjected to Anfal or genocide like the Kurds.
The Kurds are a nation that has a different race and have been genocided by Iraqi governments and in Syria they were also genocided in front of the world by the jihadist Syrian government.
I also agree that Kurdistan and the Peshmerga forces should become a national force and be removed from party control. According to Iraqi laws, there is no problem as part of the federal government forces.
However, the Peshmerga forces should remain as they are and not follow a party force, but a national force like the Kurdistan National Army or the National Army of the Kurdistan Federal Local Government.

 The Kurdish genocide, or the Al-Anfal Campaign, was a systematic extermination of Iraqi Kurds orchestrated by Saddam Hussein’s Ba'athist regime between 1987 and 1988. Led by Ali Hassan al-Majid ("Chemical Ali"), the operation claimed the lives of 50,000 to 182,000 civilians, decimated over 90% of Kurdish villages, and involved mass executions and chemical warfare. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

 

The Campaign (1988)
Executing the campaign under the pretext of crushing Kurdish separatism and retaliating for perceived treason near the end of the Iran-Iraq War, the Iraqi military carried out eight successive operations across Iraqi Kurdistan: [1, 2, 3]
  • Use of Chemical Weapons: Iraqi forces regularly deployed banned chemical agents—including mustard gas, sarin, and VX—against populated regions and villages. [1, 2, 3]
  • The Halabja Massacre: On March 16, 1988, the town of Halabja was subjected to a massive chemical attack, killing between 3,200 and 5,000 civilians and injuring thousands more in the largest chemical weapons attack ever directed against a civilian population. [1]
  • Mass Executions: Tens of thousands of men and boys were separated from their families and sent to desert firing squads, while women and children were placed in squalid detention camps with little food. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Historical and Legal Impact
  • Human Rights Reports: The most extensive research into the atrocities has been compiled by Human Rights Watch. [1]
  • International Recognition: The European Parliament and numerous international watchdogs formally categorize these state-sponsored actions against the Kurds as crimes against humanity and genocide. [1, 2]
  • Post-Saddam Trials: Following the 2003 invasion of Iraq, Saddam Hussein and Ali Hassan al-Majid were put on trial for the Anfal campaign. In 2007, a tribunal officially classified the campaign as genocide, leading to the execution of al-Majid and several other key figures. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
