Protesting Iraq
Oh so now the Iraqis are protesting...protesting against what? Protesting against corruption, the 2nd most
corrupt country in the world. Protesting for bread, for water and for
electricity when 50% of the population is unemployed especially SUNNI
ARABS. FACT.
Protest my ass. Where were you when the tanks
rolled in? Where were you when the sectarian Shiites and their turbaned
mullahs swayed you with a couple of hundred dollars for a finger dipped
in purple ink for a "democratic" vote... where were you when we escaped in droves, living
the lives of dogs in exile... where were you when the militias you
praised and danced for decimated us all?
Where the fuck were you? Where were you when you let another sectarian
whore from Iran take power again, for a second tenure and you sat and
talked of national reconciliation and ballot boxes?! Where were you when the Iraqi Resistance was struggling against the invader ALONE?
That same son of a bitch who put in place the
most corrupt government that rips us all off... that is stealing your
resources, that is torturing your own, that is letting thousands of us
rot in jails like sub humans... so where the fuck were you ?
I see you on TVs with your ties and you airs,
talking about constitution and law? What fucking constitution and what
fucking law? There is NO constitution under Occupation, there is NO
constitution under American and Iranian rule. And there is NO law.
Demanding better living conditions from puppets
is IDIOCY. Hundreds of foreign companies are making a living off your
backs, bringing in their own staff and leaving you, so called educated
class working as blue collars in your own country. Ditto for the shit
Iranian companies, that you bow to like fucking idols, just because they
have a turban on, are stealing your resources, your land and everything
you own, you fucking idiots.
And what about you fucked up Kurds? Do you think
you are any better. Your Barazani to whom you dance like fucking
monkeys, makes a cool 1 Million dollars a month as salary...and you tell
me fucking Kurdistan. What Kurdistan you bunch of pastoral herd
keepers? The Kurdistan that Israel is building for you ?!!!
So where were you ?
Now you are tearing your ID cards in protest, saying am no longer an Iraqi...
Give me a break you hypocrites.
Iraq is my biggest love and you are my biggest disappointment.
Go protest as much as you like, I will not lend
you my voice. I've been a lone voice for the past 5 years and suffered
the worst abuse in your name. Go protest all you like.
But you may need to remember one thing --it is
not bread, jobs, electricity and water you need to protest for...you
need to protest against being occupied first. That would be a good
start.

Anwar: Who am I ? The eternal Question . Have not figured it out fully
yet . All you need to know about me is that I am a Middle Easterner, an
Arab Woman - into my 40's and old enough to know better. I have no
homeland per se. I live in Iraq, Lebanon, Palestine, Jordan, Syria and
Egypt simultaneously...All the rest is icing on the cake.
