 | | Earlier, in January 2000, the KDP and the PUK adopted a unified policy to expel the PKK from Iraqi Kurdistan. | | | The Iraqi government also denied Yuli Vorontsov, the secretary-general's high-level coordinator for the return of missing property and missing persons from Iraq to Kuwait, access to the country. | | | The Iraqi authorities reportedly carried out numerous executions of military personnel suspected of involvement in alleged coup attempts. |

| | Kurdistan |
| | Nechiryan Barzani, PM of the Kurdistan Regional Government, said it is important to separate the work of the political parties from the work of the government. | | | In the early 1980s, Iraqi President Saddam Hussein began a systematic relocation and genocide of the Kurdish population. | | | After the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire in 1920, the Kurds were promised their own state (Treaty of Sévres, 1920) but in the end the victory powers of World War I changed their minds and only founded two Arab states, Syria and Iraq. |

| | Iraqi Kurdistan |
| | For the first time in the history of Iraqi state, Iraqis from different factions of Iraqi society(Shiite Arabs, Kurds, Sunni Arabs, Turkmen, Chaldo-Asyrian Christians) actually wrote down this constitution freely and was put forwards for Iraqi people to accept or reject by their free will. | | | The leaders of the two main Kurdish political parties, dismissed not that long ago as mere warlords, are courted by the Americans, and they have been key mediators between Iraq's bickering Sunni and Shiite Muslim Arabs in negotiations to form a coalition government. | | | Remember that Iraq is in the Middle East where Dictators still inherit power to their children and remain in power life long with manipulated and state staged 99% referendums (the last one was the re-election of Egyptian president H. Mubarak!). |

| | Assyria or Kurdistan? |
| | The Iraqi governments did not protect the Assyrians as Iraq promised in 1932 before it was admitted to the League of Nations. | | | I guess they have repeated it for so long that even Iraqi have unconsciously began to believe that what was one day Assyria, and some 150 years ago the Mosul Wilayet, is today Kurdistan. | | | One can find much similarity between the Kurds and Israelis in methods of controlling and seizing land; however, the Palestinians have been lately much resistant than in the early 1900s when they were simply selling if the price was right, contrary to Assyrians, who never saw any compensation for their lost lands and homes. |

| | Human Rights Watch: Middle East and Northern Africa : Iraq |
| | To ensure justice for hundreds of thousands of Iraqi victims and their families, the trials of Saddam Hussein and other former Iraqi officials must be fair, Human Rights Watch said today as the trials opened in Baghdad. | | | The court established to try Saddam Hussein and other former Iraqi government leaders runs the risk of violating international standards for fair trials, Human Rights Watch said in a briefing paper released today. | | | When it resumes on Monday, the court trying Saddam Hussein and seven other defendants will face a key challenge in balancing the defendants’ right to a lawyer of their choosing with preserving order in the trial, Human Rights Watch said in a briefing paper released today. |
