In a response to questions Nazem Dabbagh mentioned some aspects of current crisis of Iraq. In his view recent insecurity in Mosul and other sites should sooner have occurred. ‘I believe Iraq is an Iraq and its people are the same’ he said. The enemies are now seeking for a fan in the crowds, and where Ba’ath has more influential the differences are high. He supposed that there are still people who have Ba’ath’s thoughts and have penetrated the government and military system of Iraq. Some even remember Iraq, Syria and Egypt unity as “Omme Arabi” (Arabian Mother).

He deems Baghdad inattention to Kurdistan region authority warnings about suspicious movements of Ba’ath in Mosul and their not to be obedient to principal of Baath-elimination passed by Parliament as one of the reason for the emergence of the crisis.

The solution to react ISIS is the unity of all groups of Iraq in his view; the unity which occurred at the time of Saddam forces’ falling. The loss of Mr. Talibani also is one of the concerns that has affected recent crisis. He mentioned the different positions of Americans and also claimed that Saudi Arabia emits forces to Iraq to support ISIS. At last Mr. Dabbagh recommended they can hold a conference in Iran as in Taef for Lebanon to create a unity and dissolve present problems.
