White House photo by Paul Morse On December 16th, press secretary Scott McClellan said: “the President had some good discussions with some other leaders in the Middle East: the President of the United Arab Emirates, the King of Saudi Arabia, the Prime Minister of Kuwait and the King of Jordan. And he talked to these leaders, and they discussed the successful elections that took place and the high voter turnout, and how violence was down. And they talked about the importance of the formation of an inclusive government. “ Free Mind’s comment: Although the U.S. invaded Iraq, the U.S. never intended to destroy or possess Iraq. The American people are paying billions to rebuild Iraq, and the American military have shed lives to remove the totalitarian government of Iraq by Saddam and his inner clique, so that the new Iraq will be a nation in which all Iraqis are looked upon with equality. The American people should reach out to let the Iraqis and people in the Middle East to know that we want long-term peace and stability in the region and no harm is intended, so they know that there is more to the U.S. than just the invasion. 1) When the Taliban was disbanded in Afghanistan, the terrorists (Al Qaeda) started to move into Iraq. If the U.S. did not invade Iraq and doing surgical work, the Middle East would have been a hotbed for state-sponsored terrorism. The invasion was the “stick” for Iraq, but the carrot is prosperity and modern democratic government. 2) Because of surgical work in sweeping the Western Euphrates clean of terrorists (Al Qaeda), the political process of self government by voting (Sunni population) can follow. This idea was presented by General Casey on December 16 in a briefing to the Pentagon via teleconferencing. This suggests that the American military movement removed Al Qaeda from being the oppressor over the Sunni population, so that democratic voting is possible without fear. This has not been clearly presented to the American public either by Bush or by the press. 3) The Iraqi government must be inclusive, and should amend the Constitution, so that the oil rich like Kurds and Shiites do not suppress the Iraqi citizens’ rights over the rights of the Sunnis. Other than a narrow crowd of the Saddam loyalists, most Sunnis need not suffer with the new government. The new laws must apply justice to every citizen equally. Only from Iraqi people’s mouths, we can detect the feelings which are representative of that nation’s ethos. 1) The Iraqi ambassador Sumaidaie said: “Thank you, Mr. President. I believe that yesterday was a great day for Iraq, it was a great day for freedom. I think it was the turning point and the beginning of the end of terrorism in Iraq. “Iraqis have written, with their blood, a chapter of their history which will be remembered for decades, with the help of the American troops, with your help, Mr. President, and the help of the American people, which we will remember and appreciate for generations. “ “Thank you very much, Mr. President. And I believe that we should keep our eye on the ball and make sure that the mission is accomplished and we build an Iraq which is stable, at peace with itself and with its neighbor, and forever, I hope, a reliable ally of the United States. “ source from White House. 2) General Casey on Western Iraq, a sparse Sunni stranglehold leading to Syria, "was cleared of Al Qaeda in order to allow voting to take place", source from C-SPAN in the Pentagon calling on General Casey via teleconference. This is the beginning of the end of the American presence. . Because the Sunnis voted . The insurgency will be dampened But this is only the potential. Can they “Amend the Constitution”, so that oil wealth will not be for the Shiites and Kurds only? This alienation will drag the force down. General George Casey, Multinational Force, Iraq: Update on Military Operations in Iraq: It was a great day yesterday, onto 2006. Foreigners coming in through Syria, not a major change in operational style. Sunni Insurgents came together and fought against the terrorists, with leaders of Mavadi, with our help too. 45% voter turnout. With Western Euphrates valley, those voters would not turn out had we not pushed Al Qaeda out. This is the military and political track merging and coalescing into the power of building a new nation. The new Iraqi government must be all-embracing and all-inclusive. With the voting for a permanent governing body taking place successfully, now we simply need an inclusive, all-inclusive representation of the law, so that everyone can be equal, with an amendment to the Constitution. When the national resources are shared among all factions, this will ease the disintegration and disillusionment of people in the overall system. This not only helps build the economy and robust trade activities, this will provide built-in security and identity of the new nation, so that foreign terrorist interests can not penetrate into the people’s minds, and won’t flourish on Iraqi soil. This will in turn benefit the Greater Middle East, and promote world peace and ultimate friendship with the west, including the United States.
