    Default On ABC T/V last night.

    Reporter Mark Corcoran journeys through a region within Iraq, far removed from the street battles and car bombs of Baghdad.

    He finds Kurdistan’s capital, Erbil, in the midst of a construction boom – with a massive airport, apartment blocks, and a monolithic new city centre rising above the plain.

    It’s a boom driven by peace - there hasn’t been a bombing in Kurdistan in more than 18 months - a peace enforced not by American troops but by Kurdistan’s own forces.

    And there are more differences which set Kurdistan apart from the rest of Iraq;
    it’s a place where the Iraqi national flag is now banned – only the colours of Kurdistan are permitted to fly.

    Corcoran visits the defacto international border between Kurdistan and the rest of Iraq – created to keep suspected “terrorists” out.

    Any non-Kurds – in particular Iraqi Arabs - need a very good reason to gain entry to this “State” which is 95% ethnic Kurd.

    Kurdistan would like to make the separation even more distinct – but with the dream of Kurdish independence opposed by the Iraqi National Government, the United States, and every country in the region, Kurdistan Regional President Massoud Barzani, tempers his nationalism with pragmatism:
    “Independence is our natural right, we do not hide our wish to declare independence, but we have to look at the national interest” he tells Corcoran. “We could face difficulties if we declare independence under these circumstances – that we may not face in 10 or 15 years time when the world is changed”.

    Adding volatility to this heady mix of nationalism is oil. Insurgent attacks have crippled Iraq’s oil industry.

    Kurdistan’s solution to the problem is a multi billion dollar pumping and refinery complex now under construction. A facility that controversially, is likely to remain under the control of Kurdistan – not the Iraqi national Government.

    But as winter deepens disillusionment is growing within “The Other Iraq”. Electricity is rationed to two hours a day, a barrel of heating oil costs a month's salary and corruption is rampant. The dream of a Kurdish homeland and monumental building projects provide little comfort for people enduring a harsh mountain winter with little power, fuel or heating.

    (A lawyer in Sulymani claimed that only 20% of the money that Kurdistan receives from Baghdad is spent on its people. The rest is stashed in overseas bank. Corruption is rife).

    بغدادـمازن صاحب: كشفت مصادر برلمانية مطلعة لـ »الوطن« عن سيناريوهات عراقية بديلة للسيناريوهات الأمريكية المسربة الى وسائل الاعلام او تلك التي كلف بها السفير زلماي خليل زاده في مهمته مع الدكتور اياد علاوي الى كردستان العراق ولقائه الذي وصفته بـ »غير المثمر« مع رئيس اقليم كردستان مسعود البرزاني، على حد قولها.Baghdadmazen owner : According to parliamentary sources sources told> homeland <scenarios for the Iraqi alternative scenarios for the American leaked to the media or those tasked Ambassador Zalmai Khalilzad in his mission with Dr. Iyad Allawi to the Iraqi Kurdistan and his meeting, which they described as> unproductive < with the President of the Kurdistan region Masoud Barzani, as saying.
    وخلاصة وجهات نظر متطابقة سياسية وبرلمانية استطلعتها »الوطن« ان الامور تتجه الى تقسيم العراق الى اربع مناطق او خمس منها اقليم كردستان الحالي، باضافة كركوك اليه، واقليم الجنوب، الذي يطلق عليه اسم »الوحدات الثلاث المتداخلة«، لنظام ادارة لا مركزي يجعل من محافظات البصرة والعمارة والسماوة وحدة ادارية، مقابل الناصرية والكوت والديوانية، وحدة ثانية، النجف وكربلاء وحدة ثالثة، وفيدرالية بغداد الكبرى، تضم ما تبقى من ديالى بعد اعادة بعض المناطق التي يطالب بها الاكراد، واقليم الغرب السني، او اقليمين، احدهما يضم الموصل وما يتبقى من محافظة صلاح الدين، والثاني يضم الانبار وحدها.In summary views identical political and parliamentary photography> home <that things are going to divide Iraq into four districts or five of them Kurdistan present, the addition of Kirkuk, in the southern region, which is called> three units Stocks>, the decentralized management system makes the provinces of Basra, Amarah, Samawa and administrative unit, compared Nasiriyah, Kut, Diwaniyah, and the second unit, Najaf and Karbala, and the third unit, and the federal Baghdad region, comprising the remainder of the Diyala after some of the areas claimed by the Kurds, and Sunni territory west, or two, one comprising What remains of the Mosul governorate of Saladin, and the second comprises Anbar alone.
    وتنطلق هذه المصادر في توقعاتها من عدة معطيات في التعامل مع السيناريوهات الأمريكية، فالأكراد، يؤكدون دون لبس، ان أي فشل لخطة فرض القانون في بغداد، يجعلهم امام استحقاق كردستاني، بغلق حدودهم، امام موجات من النازحين العرب الى الملاذات الآمنة التي اخذت المفوضية الدولية لشؤون اللاجئين تبحث عن مواقع لها في كردستان العراق.These sources, pouncing on expectations of several factors in dealing with scenarios of America, Valakrad, they assert unequivocally that any failure plan to impose law in Baghdad, makes the benefit of Kurdistan, close down the borders, before the waves of refugees to safe havens UNHCR has for Refugees International looking for sites in Iraqi Kurdistan.

    اقليم الجنوبSouth Territory

    كتلة الائتلاف ستقوم باعلان فيدرالية الجنوب التي ربما لن تضم بغداد وتبدأ في المدن الجنوبية، بعد الانتهاء من اعمال تعزيز الوسائل اللوجستية ، مثل مطار النجف، الذي تتسارع فيه خطوات الاستعداد، لكي تعلن مدينة النجف عاصمة لفيدرالية الجنوب واقامة ملاذات امنة للشيعة الفارين من حرب اهلية في العاصمة بغداد ومن بعض المناطق في ديالى على وجه الخصوص، وتترك القوات العراقية ، شرطة وجيش، لمواجهة صارمة مع الدولة الاسلامية التي اعلنها مجلس شورى المجاهدين في الانبار والموصل وديالى وبعض مناطق بغداد.Bloc coalition would declare a federation of the south, which probably will not include the Baghdad begins in the southern cities, after the completion of the work of strengthening logistics, such as airport Najaf, which are escalating steps ready to declare the capital city of Najaf to the south and the establishment of federal havens safe to Shiites fleeing the civil war in the capital Baghdad and some areas in Diyala, in particular, and left Iraqi forces , the police and army, to cope with the strict Islamic state announced by the Mujahideen Shura Council, in the Anbar, Mosul and Diyala, and some districts of Baghdad.
    ويرى بعض محللي المعلومات في دوائر امنية عراقية ان ثمة توجهات امريكية تتحدث عن التعامل مع اقاليم عراقية وليس عراقا واحدا، بدلالة التوجهات الاقتصادية الأمريكية بعد زيارة وفد سياسي واقتصادي امريكي كبير الى مدن اقليم كردستان، وامكانية التعامل مع فيدرالية شيعية في الجنوب بالتفاهم المقبول ما بين واشنطن وطهران وبين طهران ودول الخليج العربية والحفاظ على الاتفاقيات التي يمكن ان تعقد بين هذه الفيدرالية وكبريات شركات النفط الأمريكية، لضمان تدفق النفط »الجنوبي« او »الشيعي« عبر موانئ البصرة ، بذات الاتفاقات التي تمت بين هذه الشركات والجانب العراقي منذ تشكيل مجلس الحكم ، واعطاء الأفضلية لها في التصدير، والتفاهم الاستراتيجي حول الاستثمارات الاستخراجية، في منطقة تعد الأغنى بين مناطق العالم بالثروة النفطية.In the view of some analysts in the Iraqi security services that there orientations American talking about dealing with the Iraqi territory and not Iraq one, in terms of economic trends, after the visit of the American political and economic delegation to the large American cities in the Kurdistan province, and the possibility of dealing with the federal Shiite in the south acceptable understanding between Washington and Tehran and the relations between Tehran and the Arab Gulf states and the preservation of the conventions that the complexity of these federal and major American oil companies, to ensure the flow of oil> southern Shiite <or> <through the ports of Basra, the same agreements that was between those companies and the Iraqi side since the formation of the Governing Council, and give preference in export, and strategic understanding on the extractive investments in the area are among the richest regions of the world oil wealth.
