STOP IRAN'S ETHNIC CLEANSING IN IRAQ

Indications are that Ahmadi-Nejad is planning three massive campaigns
of border adjustments and ethnic cleansing on a scale that will make
Slobodan Milosevic look like a petty thief. Ahmadi-Nejad's threats
against Israel represent only the tip of the iceberg of his plan
to create a new "National Socialist" Middle East. In most danger
following Israel are Iraq, Saudi Arabia, the Persian Gulf states,
Lebanon, and Azerbaijan
First, Iran will drive all the Sunnis from Iraq, and use Iraq to
consolidate Iranian control of Lebanon, Syria, and the Persian Gulf.
To do this, Iran will alter Iraq's borders and will probably annex
outright eastern Iraq including the Basra region that contains 60%
of Iraq's proven oil reserves.
In order to partition Iraq, Iran will also encourage Iraqi Kurds, with
whom Tehran already has a political agreement aimed at disenfranchising
the Sunnis, to drive all the Sunnis from Mosul and Kirkuk. The
Kurds would then proclaim an independent Kurdistan, with Kirkuk as
its capital. Kirkuk contains Iraq's largest oil reserves, following
Basra. Thus, the Sunnis would be deprived of all substantial income
from oil revenue.
Iran's ethnic cleansing in Iraq would have catastrophic consequences
for the region. For one thing, Iran then would be in a strong
position after challenging Iraq's borders to challenge Saudi Arabia's
borders. Specifically, Iran/Iraq would then stir up irredentist
sentiment among Saudi Arabia's large Shia community abutting Iraq,
which contains the bulk of Saudi oil reserves. Iran could make a
power grab for this territory, which would touch off another round
of ethnic cleansing as the Iraqi-Saudi border is adjusted.
For another ethnic cleansing opportunity, Iran could spur Shia
militancy in the Persian Gulf states like Bahrain. As these states fall
into Iran's orbit, massive refugee flows of Arabs could ensue.Israel,
Palestine and Lebanon.
Second, Iran will drive all the Jews from Israel, along with the
secular and Christian Palestinians, from "Palestine." Ahmadi-Nejad
already openly boasts of "wiping Israel from the map." His pro-Shia
ethnic cleansing for Iraq, Israel and Palestine would put severe
pressure on the Shia in Lebanon, now under Iran/Hezbollah control,
to follow suit with their own copycat ethnic cleansing campaign.Iran,
Azerbaijan and Central Asia.
Third, Iran will then turn on its domestic Azeri community -- some
30 million strong and increasingly pro-Turkey.Iran's Azeris want
no part of an Iranian empire in the region, which at some point
entails Iranian confrontation with Turkey and Azerbaijan. Iran is
already an ally of Armenia, much to the discomfort of Turkey and
Azerbaijan who are locked in a bitter dispute with Armenia over the
future of Nagarno-Karabakh. Iran's Azeris identify more with Turkey
and Azerbaijan than with Tehran.
In this final round of ethnic cleansing, Iran will send large numbers
of Azeris to Turkey and Azerbaijan to remove a potential threat to
the stability of Iran's theocratic regime. In a recent provocation,
a leading official Iranian newspaper printed a cartoon depicting
Iran's Azeris to Turkic-speaking cockroaches, a provocation that led
to days of rioting and several deaths in Iran. Remember, whatever
Ahmadinejad does to the Sunnis, Jews, and non-Islamist Palestinians,
he will do to the Azeris.
To put it another way, if Ahmadinejad chooses to pursue ethnic racist
national socialist policies abroad, beginning in Iraq, he will do
so at home as well. Of course Ahmadi-Nejad's entire ethnic cleansing
plan is insane. So was Hitler's plan, but he went ahead anyway.
