Right now, the Iraqi Kurdish leaders on the Army’s speech has become a focus of media attention in the Middle East. Around this problem, Iraq’s Sunni Arabs, Shiite Arabs and Kurds, some three parties is inevitable war of words.

The leaders of the Kurdish autonomous region in northern Iraq, Massoud Barzani recently in a meeting with visiting U.S. military delegation, said that he could in the future I hope that the establishment of a unified Iraqi Kurdish autonomous region the army, this is his long-standing one wish. Also, he adds that the establishment of army within the autonomous region, as well as all the people all the requirements of the Kurdish autonomous region in Iraq after the parliamentary elections, will make a final decision regarding the establishment of the army. Finally, the Barzani affirmed the U.S. military assistance and experience to achieve this goal founding of the key factors.

According to Arab media reports, this development in the Kurdish forces will be mainly built in the current Kurdish militia organizations, “Bashi Mei laka” basis. Kurdish militias who the data is estimated at about 10 million people, of which 6 million people belong to the Kurdistan Democratic Party led by Massoud Barzani, the other 40000 are under the leadership of Iraqi President Jalal Talabani’s Patriotic Union of Kurdistan.

Iraq’s total population of about 1 / 6 of the Iraqi Kurdish autonomous region has its own militia, responsible for defense and security affairs. The Barzani sought to establish an independent defense force in Iraq, the army of self-government proposal is that the Kurds have gained their independence in the executive power and foreign affairs, the right to an independent national defense a major step. Constitute the modern state usually have the four elements, namely residents, territory, political organization and sovereignty. The former three elements of the Iraqi Kurdish autonomous government have now been met, most importantly, sovereignty, its meaning is “a country’s independent and deal with internal and external affairs of the highest authority.” If the Kurdish self-government has its own legitimate armed forces, coupled with the foreign powers had been obtained, the nature and the sovereign and independent country it is almost the same in. It is precisely because of this, the central government in Baghdad has been very concerned about the Kurdish autonomous region’s policy direction. In other words, Iraq’s Arabs have never relaxed the “Kurdish independence,” the issue of vigilance.

There is no central government on the Barzani from Iraq, “Army” speech, the official position, but is foreseeable that the Kurdish “army building” issue just like a hard touch of the “minefield” and once into the impact of will not be discounted.
