Al-Azhar, l’une des plus prestigieuses institutions théologiques de l’islam sunnite, basée en Egypte, a appelé à “sauver les nations arabes et islamiques de leurs diables”. Le grand ayatolah Ali al-Sistani, la plus haute autorité chiite de l’Irak, a estimé que ces destructions étaient la preuve “de la sauvagerie, de la barbarie et de l’hostilité (des jihadistes) pour les Irakiens”

The U.S. Occupation and Rising Religious Extremism: The Double Threat to Women in Iraq
2 September 2012, by siawi3With about 140,000 troops currently deployed and a mounting death toll,
the U.S. occupation of Iraq raises numerous issues, ranging from
allegations of war crimes to the backing of a new Iraqi government based
on tribal, ethnic and religious affiliation – a fact likely to have long term
implications for the region. However, the Iraqi context is marked not only
by the U.S. occupation, but also by the rise of an extremist Islamist armed
insurgency that is targeting women. The left needs to avoid romanticizing
forces that, despite their claim to be primarily opposed to U.S. imperialism,
in fact pursue a fundamentalist agenda in Iraq. The left also needs to heed
and challenge the steady incursion of the Muslim religious right in the
West. -
Captive Islamic State militant says mass rapes were ’normal’
28 February 2017, by siawi3Hussein said he moved from house to house in several Iraqi cities raping women from the Yazidi sect and other minorities at a time when Islamic State was grabbing more and more territory from Iraqi security forces. His emirs, or local Islamic State commanders, gave him and others a green light to rape as many Yazidi and other women as they wanted: “Young men need this,” “This is normal.”

Iraq: Mosul caught in ’strange and terrifying’ battle as IS foreign soldiers fight to the end
28 February 2017, by siawi3“The closer we get to the center, the more we come up against the foreigners”.
Unlike Iraqi militants who can blend in with civilians and possibly slip through the net of security forces, foreign fighters have no escape and will therefore fight to the end: “They don’t flee like the locals”. -
Who won the war in Iraq? (Here’s a big hint: It wasn’t the United States)
2 October 2011, by siawi3As for Iraq being any sort of winner after being stomped on by the U.S. military, no. Iraq had its civil society shredded, underwent eight years of sectarian civil war, saw over 100,000 killed and is home now to a small but bustling al Qaeda franchise. The United States left without brokering a deal between the Kurds and the Arab Iraqis, leaving that kettle on full boil. The United States also failed to establish stable borders for the Kurds, such that the Iranians shell “Kurdistan” from the east, while Turkish jets drop bombs in the west. Turkey is part of NATO — imagine the U.S. government sitting silently if Germany bombed Poland next week.
