Any person familiar with the political situation in Iraq can easily emphasize that the coming parliamentary elections will see relative abstention on the part of voters, for the bitter disappointments that have taken roots in the hearts of Iraqis, which always subtended, and all through the past period, with arrogant denial and unfair indifference by the (gentlemen) officials of different political affiliations. Although this action and the corresponding reaction did not come out of the blue, for the people who put their eggs in the basket of (newcomers), those who carried the standards of freedom, justice and equality, and who defended and protected, with all their might of expression, rhetoric and insertion of rivals, the rights of the wronged, the wretched and the disadvantaged.

This people has become suddenly awake to find that he is still going around as it was in eddies of oppression, tires of blood so his miseries multiplied and the wrong he suffered in the past has turned to justice (modified) in front of the new (gentlemen) oppression, not to mention unprecedented methods of looting and corruption so that Iraq has been placed on the list of the most corrupt nations in whole world. Perhaps such a talk will take longer if we wanted to delve into details of the holders of development and their dialectical historical relation with villains sabotage, and also the services whose mercy nobody has ever tasted, and education which became lower in grade, the security that deteriorated, and electricity, and who knows what about the electricity.

As for the part of the gentlemen officials, given their good faith (bad one), the laws of sectarian allocation have affected their heads whereupon Iraq has become with all its wealth, resources, cultivation and posterity, proceeds and abundance an inheritable property they share with their presumed (enemies). And as for partisan and sectarian loyalties, these have their own clout also on the heart, soul, blood and sentiment. But for the last but not the least for sure, is reclining on neighboring countries, drawing help, determination and courage from them in return for leaving the doors wide open without control in the face of their organs if they have decided to take part in (Iraq development) or protect (security) his people.

Now, and in the face of countdown that began to give off its last ticks announcing the demise of these rulers' guardianship, then the virtue of holding on to the guilt and the talent of polishing the lies has started to produce a change in titles, designations and slogans with a change in some grim faces meant to throw dust in the eyes and cover up the invisible.  So, will the game fool again? And will the bait be swallowed? Or else the pressure of despair and feeling of injustice what will drive the people to say their final world on these persons?

I cannot, in my answer to these questions, but to say: that the orbit of these sultans if it happened and circuited us once again then say goodbye to Iraq… Salaam to Iraq
