Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008 週二， 2008年9月2日 Translated by Raed Jarrar | I read about a leaked copy of the US-Iraqi agreement a few days ago when a radio station in Iraq mentioned some of its details, then it was mentioned in some Arab newspapers like Al-Qabas and Al-Sharq Al-Awsat. 翻譯阿拉伯環發網jarrar |我看過一個洩露的副本，美在伊拉克的協議數天前，當一家電台在伊拉克提到它的一些細節，然後有人提到，在一些阿拉伯報紙一樣，鋁- qabas和al - sharq基地-中東日報。 A couple of days ago, one Iraqi website (linked to an Iraqi armed resistance group) published the leaked draft on their web page for less than a couple of days before their website went offline.數天前，一名伊拉克人網站（鏈接到伊拉克的武裝抵抗集團）公佈了洩露草案對他們的網頁，不到數天前，他們的網站去脫機。 (Thankfully, I downloaded the 21 pages agreement and saved them before their server went down) （謝天謝地，我下載了21頁的協議和保存他們之前，他們的服務器則下跌）
I spent this weekend translating it, and just finished now.我花了本週末的翻譯，和剛剛結束的現在。 you can read the 27 articles August 6th draft by clicking您可以閱讀27日的文章8月6日草案通過點擊 here 這裡 or或 here這裡 or或 here這裡 . 。 The title of this draft is “Agreement regarding the activities and presence of US forces, and its withdrawal from Iraq”, but this is the same agreement that is referred to as a “status of forces agreement” or “SOFA” or framework or whatever.標題這份草案是“的協議，關於活動和在場的美軍，而其從伊拉克撤軍” ，不過，這是相同的協議，這是被稱為“美軍地位協定”或“沙發”或框架或什麼。 It’s the result of months of negotiations after Bush and Al-Maliki signed the “它的結果個月的談判後，布什和al -馬利基簽署了“ Declaration of Principles for a Long-Term Relationship of Cooperation and Friendship Between the Republic of Iraq and the United States of America原則宣言為一項長期的合作關係和友誼，伊拉克共和國和美利堅合眾國 ” by the end of last year. “去年年底。
This leaked draft is a treasure of information.這洩露草案是一個珍惜的資料。 It’s the first time any document related to this topic is made public.它的第一時間的任何文件，與此相關的話題是公開。 It shows how weak the Iraqi negotiations team is (it is really pathetic to read their “suggestions” on how to fix the disaster of an agreement).它顯示了如何薄弱，伊拉克的談判團隊是（實在是可悲的閱讀他們的“建議”中關於如何修復災害的一項協議） 。
There are many outrageous articles in the agreement that violates Iraq’s sovereignty and independence, and gives the US occupation authorities unprecedented rights and privileges, but what has draw my attention the most (so far) are three major points:有許多荒謬的文章中的協議，違反了伊拉克的主權和獨立，並給出了美國佔領當局前所未有的權利和特權，但已提請我注意，最（到目前為止）是三大要點：
1- the agreement does not discuss anything about a complete US withdrawal from Iraq. 1 -該協議不討論任何關於一個完整的美國從伊拉克撤軍。 Instead, it talks about withdrawing “combat troops” without defining what is the difference between combat troops and other troops.反之，會談約收回“作戰部隊”沒有界定之間的區別是什麼作戰部隊和其他部隊。 It is very clear that the US is planning to stay indefinitely in permanent bases in Iraq (or as the agreement calls them: “installations and areas agreed upon”) where the US will continue training and supporting Iraqis armed forces for the foreseeable future.這是非常清楚地表明，美國正計劃無限期駐留在永久基地，在伊拉克（或作為該協議要求他們： “裝置及地區議定” ）的地方，美國將繼續培訓和支持伊拉克武裝部隊可預見的將來。
2- the agreement goes into effect when the two executive branches exchange “memos”, instead of waiting for Iraqi parliament’s ratification. 2 -該協定生效時，兩個行政部門的交流“備忘錄” ，而不是等待伊拉克議會的批准。 This is really dangerous, and it is shocking because both the Iraqi and US executive branches have been assuring the Iraqi parliament that no agreement will go into effect without being ratified by Iraq’s MPs.這實在是危險的，這是令人震驚，因為無論是伊拉克和美國行政部門已保證，伊拉克國會表示，任何協議將生效，未經批准，伊拉克的總薪級表。
3- this agreement is the blueprint for keeping other occupation armies (aka Multi-national forces) in Iraq on the long run. 3 -這項協議是藍圖，保持其他的佔領，兩軍（又名多國部隊）在伊拉克的長遠之計。 This explains the silence regarding what will happed to other occupiers (like the UK forces) after the expiration of the UN mandate at the end of this year.這說明了沉默，就什麼會happed其他佔用（如英國部隊）期限屆滿後，聯合國的任務在今年年底。
It is really disturbing to read how the US government is still going down the same path of intervention and domination in Iraq.實在是令人不安的閱讀如何，美國政府仍處於下跌的相同路徑的干預和統治在伊拉克。
This agreement will not be accepted by the Iraqi people and their elected representatives in the Iraqi parliament, and if the US and Iraqi executive branches try to consider it valid anyway it will lead to more violence in Iraq.這項協定將不會接受伊拉克人民和他們選出的代表在伊拉克議會，如果美國和伊拉克行政部門嘗試考慮它的有效無論如何，這將導致更多的暴力事件在伊拉克。
