THE CONSTITUTION UNDER THE OCCUPATION IS ANOTHER DECEPTION

By Ibrahim Ebeid

When I first read the draft of the Bush Constitution designated for Iraq I realized that the original copy was written in English and not in Arabic. It was very clear from the style and expressions and it does not need any intelligence to arrive at this conclusion. Yes indeed, Zalmay Khalilzad, the Bush representative in occupied Iraq,  prepared it in the offices of the Kurdish Zionist agents, Talabani and Barazani.

This “Constitution “ is another attempt to continue ripping the Arab Homeland apart into mini states to render it with no power, and no control over its natural resources and wealth. The first attempt took place soon after World War I, which was known as the Sykes-Picot Agreement, followed by the Balfour Declaration to transfer Palestine to the Zionist movement.

President Bush is reversing every progress created by the Baath in Iraq into backwardness even if it takes more killing and destruction to achieve his evil goals. This modern-day Dictator is responsible for the total chaos in Iraq and for the destruction of the advanced infrastructure that Iraq enjoyed under Saddam Hussein. Iraq was secured, peaceful and economically very advanced until his father started the War of aggression in 1991 and imposed the genocidal sanctions.

The government that Bush created to rule Iraq on his behalf is a sectarian and reactionary one. It is geared to split Iraq into mini states under sectarian and ethnic groups to enable the Zionists and their allies, Bush and his followers, to enjoy the wealth of Iraq and to erase its Arab Character.

The war against the Baath is a war against the Arab Nation, against the Arab people, against the hope to achieve their Unity, Freedom and Liberation. The Baath Party carries these hopes and principles that are instilled in every Arab no mater where he/she lives. These hopes and principles are indestructible and the Baath is immortal, the Baath means resurrection and resurrection is life.

The Legal Iraqi Constitution adopted under President Saddam Hussein is a secular one and it is the most advanced constitution in the Arab World. . It prohibits all forms of discrimination, gender or other and guarantees freedom of expression as part of "the revolutionary, national and progressive trend." The constitution of Iraq under the Baath confirms “The sovereignty of Iraq is an indivisible entity.”  And “The territory of Iraq is an indivisible entity of which no part can be ceded.” President Bush and his followers, the reactionary leaders of the Dawa Party, the Islamic Council of Al-Hakim and the parties of Talabani and Barazani are ripping Iraq apart to facilitate its occupation to be under the influence of foreign domination and control.

The Bush War in Iraq is spreading chaos, fear and insecurity. The Iraqis now have no food, no water, no electricity, no security, no freedom, no peace, no genuine education, and no life.

The people of Iraq do not support the "Constitution" of Zalmay Khalilzad because it means the disintegration of Iraq. They have demonstrated their dismay and hatred to the constitution, to the sectarian government, and to the occupation and to Bush. The people in the streets of Baghdad, in Baqouba, in Basra, in Najaf, in Karkuk and in many parts of Iraq chanted "Ya Bush Irif Zein Kulna nhib Saddam Hussein": "Bush you must know well that we all love Saddam Hussein" "Bil rooh bil dam nifdeek ya Saddam" which means "We sacrifice our blood and our lives for you Saddam". The cries against Bush, his lackeys, occupation and the "federation" were very high.

These desperate steps taken by Bush and his followers will not triumph but will fail like all the previous ones. The Bush Administration is on the verge of bankruptcy it will run out of excuses and lies. Its coffer of lies and deceptions is drying up.
