Iraq Is A Psuedu-Country (Part Two)

6 posts in this topic

In part one i discussed why I don't see Iraq as a country, and here, I am going to give an irrefutable proof that Iraq is not a real country. It goes like this:

When the embassy of America is being under attack, why no one hold Iraq responsible for these attacks? cuz In reality, the attack is happening on Iraqi soil, and implemented by Iraqi outlaws militias who are openly bragging about what they call 'resistance for the American occupier', but then we see trump blames Iran for these attacks! Isn't that an implicit confession that Iraq IS NOT A REAL STATE?

It is utterly baffling how you blame the neighbor country for something done on Iraqi soil. So when I tell you that my instinct tells me it is not a country, I know my instincts are true. I mean many evidence suggest that it doesn't qualify as a country. Yet from the way that I saw members interacting with my post, I sensed that the idea if a country or a state is like engraved in their brain, it is like a part of the fabric of the universe, and that also is baffling to me.

Again my original argument that it's taking too much energy to make Iraq appear as a cohesive state, and that many massacres are  and will be conducted due to insisting that it should appear as a country.

I think that truly, identities of groups are on stake here. Think about how long you've hated on someone because of the war on Iraq, think about the long years spent blaming yourself for the supposed destruction of this fake country.

@Mesopotamian well, I can honestly say I've never hated anyone or blamed myself for the tradegies of Iraq, however I've often felt compassion and sympathy for the chronic suffering of Iraq and many other communities and societies. 

A lot of countries had their borders and governments imposed by conflict and conquest, but some like Iraq don't settle down into stable communities. I can see the major trauma going on there: but what do you think should happen now, and who should do it? 


Relax, it's just my loosely held opinion.  :)

I came to believe that Iraqis are malinformed. People have all sort of stupid notions. The idea of international conventions is alien to most of Iraqis. I am now sponsoring a FB page to educate people  that the embassies are sacred places, they are equivalent to shrines in religions. I hope I can change the minds of people and make them see the importance of "not firing rockets on an embassy"

Fantastic idea bro :) change needs to come from the grass roots. Nationalism can be a positive thing, if it brings people together and stop fighting each other (without demonising foreigners!) . Somehow we all need to learn to celebrate our rich diversity and co-operate together for everyone's benefit.

@Mesopotamian Conspiracy theorist you are.


"Not believing your own thoughts, you’re free from the primal desire: the thought that reality should be different than it is. You realise the wordless, the unthinkable. You understand that any mystery is only what you yourself have created. In fact, there’s no mystery. Everything is as clear as day. It’s simple, because there really isn’t anything. There’s only the story appearing now. And not even that.” — Byron Katie
