Comments by Iraq’s army chief of staff, that the Iraqi military won’t be ready to protect the country without U.S. assistance until 2020, triggered this angry and sarcastic response from Muhammad al-Ammary of the Iraq News Agency.
Continuing with our coverage of the Iraqi reaction to America’s combat troop withdrawal and highlighting the cleavages among the country’s ethnic and sectarian groups, columnist Muhammad al-Ammary attacks Army Chief of Staff Babakir Zebari as a treasonous Kurd plotting against the Iraqi people by obeying the commands of his American masters and other of Iraq’s ‘neighboring and regional’ adversaries.
For the Iraq News Agency, columnist Muhammad al-Ammary writes in part:
The chief of staff of the new Iraqi Army, “Protector of Peace!!” told Agence France Presse a few days ago that his “courageous” forces won’t be prepared to maintain security and stability in Iraq before 2020 [see video below]. During his “extremely valuable” speech about the alleged U.S. withdrawal from Iraq, the chief of staff of the “Iraqi military” spoke to Iraqi politicians – if they can be described as such – saying: “The U.S. military should remain until the Iraqi Army is ready in 2020.”
It’s obvious that this man, if he possessed one iota of decency, honor and dignity before joining the military, would never have uttered such shameful comments, which stink of pleading to those who were and remain the main cause of every catastrophe and misery of today’s Iraqis, not to mention the destruction of every institution of state – military, civic and social alike. Even ordinary citizens aren’t safe from the sectarian-religious virus and racist evil that resulted in a nobody like this “Kurdish” Babakir Zebari becoming the chief of staff of the Iraqi Army, a force with a glorious history and whose remarkable exploits are well-documented.
The attachment to their American masters and protectors of the chief of staff of the so-called Iraqi Army, Babakir Zebari, his great Zionist friend, [President of Iraqi Kurdistan] Massoud Barzani and Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari (another Zibari), whose star has also fallen recently, is nothing strange or new. But it fits perfectly with their decades-long treachery and brand of politics, which is devoid of any ethical or moral commitment, and involves putting oneself at the disposal of any country hostile to Iraq and its people.
