De Iraakse wetgevers zeggen de V.S. het eisen van 58 militaire basissen
Dinsdag, 10 Juni, 2008
De belangrijke leden van de twee beslissende partijen Shiite zeiden in een reeks van gesprekken de Iraakse overheid verworpen dit voorstel samen met de een andere V.S. eis dat effectief de bevoegdheid zou overhandigen om te bepalen als een vijandige handeling van een ander land agressie tegen Irak is. De wetgevers zeiden zij vrezen deze macht Irak in een oorlog tussen de Verenigde Staten en Iran zou slepen. De „punten die door de Amerikanen werden voorgesteld waren afschuwelijker dan het beroep,“ bovengenoemde Jalal al DIN al Saghir, een belangrijke wetgever van de Islamitische Opperste Raad van Irak. „Wij werden bezet op bevel van de Veiligheidsraad,“ hij zei, verwijzend naar de Resolutie van 2004 verplicht stellend de V.S. militair beroep in Irak bij het hoofd van een internationale coalitie. „Maar nu worden wij gevraagd om voor ons eigen beroep te ondertekenen. Dat is waarom wij absoluut geweigerde dat alles hebben wij.“ tot dusver hebben gezien Andere voorwaarden die door de Verenigde Staten worden gestreefd naar omvatten controle over Iraakse luchtruimte tot 30.000 voet en immuniteit van vervolging voor de V.S. troepen en privé militaire contractanten. De overeenkomst zou lopen voor onbepaalde tijd maar is onderworpen aan annulering op twee jaar van bericht van één van beide kant, bovengenoemde wetgevers. „Het zou Iraakse soevereiniteit,“ bovengenoemde Ali al Adeeb een belangrijk lid van al Maliki van Nouri van de Eerste Minister de partij van Dawa van de voorgestelde overeenstemming schaden. De „Amerikanen dringen tot dusver aan dat zij is die bepalen wat een agressie op Irak is en wat democratie binnen Irak… is als wij onder agressie komen wij het zouden moeten bepalen en wij om hulp.“ vragen Zowel zeiden Saghir als Adeeb dat de Iraakse overheid de termijnen onaanvaardbaar verwierp. Zij zeiden de overheid de V.S. wil. aanwezigheid en de V.S. de veiligheids waarborg maar wil veiligheid binnen het land, einde onbepaalde detentions van Irakezen door de V.S. controleren. dwingt en hebben in de V.S. zeggen. krachten gedrag in Irak. Momenteel, werken de Verenigde Staten uit ongeveer 30 belangrijke basissen zonder kleinere faciliteiten zoals gevechtsbuitenposten, volgens de V.S. military map. ” Is there sovereignty for Iraq - or isn’t there? If it is left to them, they would ask for immunity even for the American dogs,” Saghir said. “We have given Bush our views - some new ideas and I find that there is a certain harmony between his thoughts and ours. And he promised to tell the negotiators to change their methods.” Maliki returned Monday from his second visit to Iran , whose Islamic rulers are adamantly opposed to the accord. Iran’s Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamanei said following meetings with Maliki that we have “no doubt that the Americans’ dreams will not come true,” Hoshyar Zebari , the Iraqi foreign minister, criticized the lawmakers for poisoning the public discussion before an agreement is concluded. He said U.S. officials had been flexible in the talks, as well as “frank and honest since the beginning.” “This is an ongoing process,” Zebari said. “There is no agreement yet. Proposals have been modified, they have been changed and altered. We don’t have a final text yet for them to be judgmental.” Zebari, who said a negotiating session was held with U.S. officials on the new accord Monday, said any agreement will be submitted to the Iraqi parliament for approval. Leaders in the U.S. Congress have also demanded a say in the agreement, but the Bush administration says it is planning to make this an executive accord, not subject to Senate ratification. Neither of the two likely Presidential contenders, Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill) and Sen. John McCain , had any immediate comment on the talks under way in Baghdad . Lee Hamilton , a former Democratic congressman from Indiana , said he had not heard of a plan to seek 50 or more bases in Iraq , and that if it is the case, Congress is likely to challenge the idea. “” Congress would have a lot of questions, and the President should be very careful in negotiating,” Hamilton, who now directs the Woodrow Wilson Center for Scholars , told McClatchy newspapers. (EDITORS: Story can end here) The top U.S. Embassy spokesman in Iraq rejected the latest Iraqi criticism. “Look, there is going to be no occupation,” said U.S. spokesman Adam Ereli . “Now it’s perfectly understandable that there are those that are following this closely in Iraq that have concerns about what this means for Iraqi sovereignty and independence. We understand that and we appreciate that and that’s why nothing is going to be rammed down anybody’s throat. “It’s kind of like a forced marriage. It just doesn’t work. They either want you or they don’t want you. You can’t use coercion to get them to like you,” he added. U.S. officials in Baghdad say they are determined to complete the accord by July 31 so that parliamentary deliberations can be completed before the Dec. 31 expiration of the UN mandate. The agreement will not specify how many troops or where they will be deployed, said a U.S. official who asked not to be named due to the sensitivity of the subject, but the agreement will detail legal framework under which they will operate. The U.S. official said that in the absence of a UN resolution authorizing the use of force, “there have to be terms that are in place. That’s the reality that we’re trying to accommodate.” Iraqis are determined to get there nation removed from Security Council chapter 7 category which deemed them a threat to international peace after Saddam’s Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait - language the Iraqi government says is no longer appropriate. But even on that which the Iraqi government said is the basic request to restore sovereignty, the U.S. has made no promises to support them, Saghir said. Instead they are using it as a pressure point in negotiations, they said. U.S. demands “are conflicting with our sovereignty and we refuse them,” said Hassan Sneid , a member of the Dawa party and a lawmaker on the security committee in the parliament. “I don’t expect these negotiations will be done by the exact date. The Americans wants so many things and the fact is we want different things.” “If we had to choose one or the other, an extension of the mandate or this agreement, we would probably choose the extension,” Saghir said. “It is possible that in December we will send a letter the UN informing them that Iraq no longer needs foreign forces to control its internal security. As for external defense, we are still not ready.” Margaret Talev in Washington contributed.

Permanent bases? Why would we want to be invaders in a foreign state forever? No wonder they want us dead, would we not shoot back if the Iraqi army tried to take over our country? We are about to start a third phony and bogus war in Iran and we should keep out of these countries and let them deal with their own problems. Bring our boys home to defend our own turf, line em up on the border, shoulder to shoulder…
