politics
Politics does not dictate our collective cultural mindset as much as it simply reflects it; We've got to look in the mirror sometimes, and we've got one.
Our president is Kurdish... the paradox of office
When former Iraqi President Jalal Talabani sat on the chair of the Arab Summit Conference held in Baghdad in 2012, it was remarkable that a Kurdish president chaired a summit of Arab countries, but at that time it was acceptable and palatable for many in Iraq, given the man's acceptance and charisma, And an active role in an attempt to unite Shaath in the post-Saddam era, and to embark on the stage of building a comprehensive Iraqi identity.

If Putin wins
Will Vladimir Putin lose his war in Ukraine? The answer seems to be in the affirmative for some of them, who live on a stray political ideology that has become wooden, to the effect that America is capable of everything, and that what it plans is necessarily achieved, and that it has caught the Russian President in the trap of the Ukraine war, hoping to turn it into another Afghanistan, draining the Russian Federation , just as the earlier war in Afghanistan exhausted the power of the Soviet Union, and added to the factors for its collapse in the early nineties of the twentieth century.

In the American invasion of Iraq, the word “resistance” was forbidden
Shall we say thank you to Putin because, as a result of his invasion of Ukraine, he awakened the world, perhaps for a moment, to the tragedies that the NATO machine, led by America, one after the other, of invasion, occupation and regime change, as if history is repeating itself because it is repeating itself or perhaps because the world does not learn?

Ukraine and the question of nationalism
One of the pretexts that Russian President Vladimir Putin used to justify the military invasion of Ukraine was the presence of “Ukrainian nationalists” who hate Russian speakers and carry out “genocide” against them, especially in the east of the country. Although this pretext is part of Putin's lying machine, it is based on what is real, that is, the presence of nationalists in Ukraine. The difference here is between nationalists whom Putin makes “neo-Nazis” and “drug users” and nationalists who are present in every country, and more clearly, between nationalists whose role is to be exaggerated as part of political propaganda, and nationalists who are in fact part of an ideological and political combination that ruled the country in the past period , and can be governed by any other country.

The Emirates and ignoring the blood of the Syrians
, the ambiguous role of Abu Dhabi rulers in leading the counter-revolutions of the Arab Spring, since the early action taken by the UAE government against Syrian opposition activities on its soil, in February 2012, represented by: “Prohibiting the use of the flag of the Syrian revolution in any way, including wearing it on clothes,” on the grounds that it still recognizes the Assad government, and that raising the flag of the revolution will cause problems inside the Emirates, as was mentioned at the time, which turned out to have exceeded ninety times.

When the war ends
The most heinous atrocities of the Ukraine war are elsewhere, and are not limited to those attributed to the Russians, but to the Americans first, who falsify history and the present wholesale, and use the Ukraine issue as a stone on a chessboard. On the pretext that Russia has violated the rules of international law and undermined the sovereignty of a member state of the United Nations, which seems correct in the abstract, but it is also true, and with an enormous amount of safety and trust, that Washington is the last one who is justified in talking pervertedly about principles, laws and war crimes, not worse. America is an example of the heinous wars it waged against others. Indeed, America itself, as a country, grew up on massacres of killing and extermination, and was based on the ruins and skulls of tens of millions of Red Indians, and it fought more than ninety wars of aggression, starting with the seizure by force of the lands of neighboring countries and the usurpation of neighboring countries. Texas, California, New Mexico, and Florida are from neighboring Mexico.
