Chapter 107: Precarious Iraq
Now Iraq is already divided into three parts of the world, and there are countless warlords with strong clan colors.
Like the countless tribal armed forces in Pakistan and Afghanistan, a large part of them are the spokesmen of the armed forces controlled by the intelligence organizations of various countries, just like Jalil in the town of Marin before, which is the armed force controlled by the Israeli Mossad.
Among them, the US CIA controls the most forces. Originally, the CIA supported the armed spokespersons to better combat terrorist forces, but this original intention has gradually deteriorated, and has become the link of the CIA's interest control in Iraq.
Then there are various armed organizations supported by European countries in Iraq, most of which appear in the guise of international mercenary companies to distribute Iraq's own interests.
After all, Iraq produces millions of barrels of oil every day. This profit cake is too tempting, and those with ideas will not be tempted by it.
As for the three major organizations in Iraq, let alone the Islamic State, several years have passed, and the more countries suppress it, the stronger it becomes.
The oil that is sold to the international oil black market at a low price every day can bring millions or even tens of millions of dollars in real income to this organization.
This kind of dumping of oil in the international market at ultra-low oil prices is actually what NATO likes to see most.
Moreover, the route for the Islamic State to dump oil still passes through Turkey. If it weren't for NATO's acquiescence, or even secret support, it would not be so easy.
As we all know, oil and natural gas account for 40% of Russia's fiscal revenue, and Russia is also the world's largest oil producer.
With the oil dumping by ISIS for many years in a row. There is no need for the United States and Saudi Arabia to control oil prices at all. economic sanctions against Russia. The Islamic State alone is enough to keep the Russian economy in a cold winter.
Therefore, the Islamic State has the meaning of existence. Otherwise, a small Islamic State would not be able to develop under the double attack of Russia and NATO. .
Considering the significance of the existence of the Islamic State, there is also the issue of Syria, which will be slowly covered in the future. There is not much burden here.
In addition to the Islamic State of the Iraqi government, there is another force in Iraq, and that is the Kurdish armed forces.
At first, it seemed that the Kurdish armed forces were with the government forces, but this was not the case at all.
As the Iraqi government leans toward Russia,
Wanting to have both sides, the United States strongly supports the Kurdish armed forces, asking for money for money, and equipment for equipment.
Soon the Kurds were well-strengthened in the fight against the Islamic State. There are hundreds of thousands of troops, all of whom are elite fighters.
And Kurds and Jews. Persians and Arabs are the four ancient ethnic groups in the Middle East. The Turks came later into the Middle East.
The territory of the Middle East today is basically the result of the division of the defeated Ottoman Turkish Empire by the Allies such as Britain, France and Italy after World War I. As a result, the Kurdish area was divided into the territory of the four countries of Persia and Iraq controlled by Britain, Syria controlled by France and the remaining Turkey.
The Kurdish nation has always demanded the establishment of an independent state and unified the Kurdish regions scattered within the territory of the above-mentioned four countries into an independent Kurdistan state. So the Kurds were persecuted and suppressed by these four countries.
Saddam's Iraq even carried out systematic genocide against the Kurds.
Now, due to the existence of the Islamic State, the development of the Kurdish armed forces has an opportunity, and it has indeed developed vigorously.
But all in all, it is impossible for the Kurds who want to seek statehood to be united with the Iraqi government.
Gradually, it was dubbed the anti-government army by the Iraqi government army, so a very strange scene appeared.
The United States not only supports the Iraqi government, but also supports the Kurdish armed forces, and also secretly helps the Islamic State dump oil in the international black market.
As a result, Iraq was divided into three different circles of influence, surrounded by armed warlords of all sizes.
In the game between international big and powerful countries, it is the interests of small countries that really lose.
It sounds cruel, but it is an unavoidable fact.
Since ancient times, the game of great powers has not been accompanied by various disasters of small countries.
Afghanistan in the past proved it. As long as the current Afghanistan leaves the capital Kabul, which place is not an enemy-occupied area of various terrorist organizations, there is no longer a country.
Iraq is also the most obvious example. Iraq is divided into three parts of the world, and the areas controlled by the Iraqi government, that is, Baghdad and the southeast, and a little west and north, have nothing to do with the Iraqi government.
Even if the Iraqi government wants to control it, it cannot reach out.
The Islamic State has already established a state, although no one will recognize such a state.
The Kurdish armed forces also left the last fig leaf for the Iraqi government. Under the control of the United States, there have been no obvious targeted actions, but in fact they are similar to the Islamic State.
With such a complicated situation, it can indeed be said that the people of Iraq are in dire straits.
With the identity given by the base, Cai Ruichen can be regarded as a strong entry into Iraq, which is already a precarious Iraq, and the changes are even more unpredictable.
Now, apart from Israel, which cannot sit still, all forces are watching. Even the Islamic State, which offered a reward, is nothing more than thunder and rain, and has not made any substantive actions against Cai Ruichen.
Some people are really jealous of the 500,000 reward, and if Cai Ruichen is really killed, there is no loss for the Islamic State.
The same is true for other forces. Anyway, Cai Ruichen's purpose is unknown, and that's what happens when he dies.
But let them do it now, and all cherish their feathers, so as not to attract unfavorable international public opinion.
After all, the identity given to Cai Ruichen by the base makes him very important in the international academic school.
He can also be regarded as an internationally renowned person, and immediately built a large general hospital in Iraq, occupying the commanding heights of international humanitarianism.
The current Cai Ruichen is also unlucky for anyone who touches her.
Idris is different, they can't deal with Cai Ruichen blatantly, but they will not be polite to Idris.
So all kinds of temptations followed, otherwise he would not complain to Cai Ruichen again, after all, he was under too much pressure.
He was invited to drink tea by the Iraqi Inter-Services Intelligence Service every two or three days, and various interrogations were naturally indispensable.
However, in order to embolden Idris, Cai Ruichen immediately gave him 1,000 conscripts, and 2,000 conscripts from the future security company, with all kinds of equipment. A little strength to fight back.
It's just that when it's time to fight with swords and soldiers, it also shows that the situation is really in danger. (To be continued..)
