IUK: Kurdish state “will only harm Muslims”

[Vladimir]

The Kurdistan Islamic Union (KIU) maintains its critical attitude towards the Iraqi general elections. The Union separated from the "Kurdish Alliance", formed by Massoud Barzani, head of the autonomous Kurdish government in northern Iraq, and Jalal Talabani, the current president.

"What we have experienced recently clearly shows that Kurds still have difficulty in assimilating the notion of democracy. Evidently, our efforts to institutionalize democracy in Kurdistan will not be enough," said the IKIU leader, Salahaddin Mohammed, four members of the IKIU were killed during a raid on its office prior to the elections.

At the party headquarters in the city of Erbil, currently under police protection, Bahaddin told Zaman the idea of having an independent Kurdistan sounds like a good slogan; however, it does not match the geopolitical realities.

"A Kurdish State could instigate conflicts between neighboring countries and Sunnite Kurds. Therefore, we avoid suggesting a formation that will only harm Muslims."

They exert concentrated efforts for democracy under the shadow of guns, and the Kurdish attitude towards politics is still underdeveloped. The IKIU leader explained the reason for their separation from the Barzani and Talabani alliance as a reaction against a one-dimensional political formation.

The military personnel and civilians, who threw stones at the party-owned cars and used violence against party members even on the day of elections, further diminish the prospects of Kurds contributing to democracy in Iraq, claimed Bahaddin. Many discussions were flamed by the recent developments over "how democratic Kurds are towards each other?"

Bahaddin emphasized the need for everybody to learn a lesson from these experiences.

I can see why they think that, since they had their offices attacked, and 4 officals killed.

so Islamists Parties , think the whole Kurds should be under arab's rule, just becasue some of the officals of an Islamic Party been killed by some killers ?

ah what a good reasoning.

as long as I know in the most important time of the iraqi political process more than 110 KDP and PUK HIGH RANKING SMART and WELL EXPERIEANCED, polticians were killed by Islamists...for the sake of allah ! in the Qurban celebration.

by the same reasoning , all islamist parties should be sent to Sudi Arabia , to enjoy islam forever and leave our dear kurdistan alone.
becaise by the same reasoning , islamist parties just hurt Kurds and Kurdistan.

Dyako please dont be disrespectful. An Independent Kurdistan would hurt Kurds, Turkey would attack kurds, Syria would attack kurds, and Iran would attack kurds. Some Kurds are willing to make that Sacrafice, but some are not, like our Hezbi Islami IUK.

BTW Dyako Islamic partys are not going anywere in kurdistan, they are number 3 after kdp and Puk.

so you say because Islamist feel pitty for kurds that they may be attacked by Turkey-syria and Iran , then they go to Turkish Media "Zaman", and bitch about kurdistan and say "independence kurdisatn is against islam and will harm muslems"?

well that doenst mean that they feel pitty for kurds and want to prevent an attack .
the currect kurdish parties say indepdence is the rigth of kurdish peopel and they dont say it will harm islam and muslems , but they dont demand it because it is not possible to demand it...

they just say we will demand it later...they never say it will harm islam .[the thing that you say , Independece is against lsam and muslems is the same thing saddam , khomeyni said , infact islamist are pupts are iran, and it is nomral fo them to think like their master]

[Mosul]

Dyako you dont listen very much. They are stating the obvious that kurds will be hurt if they declare independence everyone knows this, there not saying independence is agansit islam. You just like to exaggerate everything.


btw Kurds are sunnites not shites so they are not puppets to Iran.
