#OneYoungWorld Ambassador, Author 'Elite theory and the 2003 Iraq Occupation by the United States: How US corporate elites created Iraq's political system'

[Dr. Bamo Nouri @Bamonouri]

Today is the day that my book becomes available for order on all major outlets (e.g. Waterstones, Amazon etc). The truth behind the Iraq War and Occupation, the very thoughts and ideas that went through US corporate elite networks to become Iraq's political system. A thread...

Tom Barrack's take on Kurdistan Region: get over it

[Dr. Bamo Nouri @Bamonouri]

Farage wants Britain to stop boats. Kurdistan's elites should ask why their people board them.

$21bn owed in salary arrears. Billions in trade yet citizens leave.

My latest for @the_amargi examines the political economy behind Kurdish migration.

Expect anything from Bafel Talabani, including much tougher reactions, possibly even officially declaring Slemani and Halabja a separate region.

The KDP really humiliated Bafel and the PUK in parliament, and his huge ego won’t let him just brush that off. I’m sure the KDP knows this very well too.

There will now be a temptation in many parts of Europe, including the UK, to think that things will eventually go back to normal with the US and that Europe can stop its reluctant shift towards strategic autonomy. That would be a serious mistake.

The war on Iran appears to be restarting, and inevitably there will be bad journalism. Qeshm Island is an important locality, but not because it's a military stronghold. Qeshm is a UNESCO Global Geopark and one of Iran's most ecologically diverse places

Bamo Nouri examines why Kurdish people are risking their lives to reach the UK, arguing that Kurdistan’s political elites must confront the economic failures driving them to leave.

midterms will produce winners and losers, headlines and spin. They will not resolve the crisis at the heart of American power – that’s not even the point. That crisis is about the purpose and sustainability of the power itself.

Trump promised to end America’s forever wars. Instead, his Iran war is set to cost him Congress.

I warned against this strategic miscalculation before the war began. Now, the consequences are reaching American voters.

My latest for @the_amargi

[The Amargi @the_amargi]

Trump promised fewer wars and lower costs. Instead, the Iran war has driven up energy prices without delivering a clear political victory. Could it cost Republicans control of Congress in November? @Bamonouri writes for The Amargi.

https://t.co/RrPdbwsIBr - Trump’s rhetoric is crude, often outrageous, but the strategic logic he is acting upon is neither new nor ‘crazy’. @Bamonouri @MYBISA @USFPgroup @karmanomad @georgegalloway @GeopoliticsDH @informeopeu @CityStGAlumni

Post-interview chat with Murat Karayilan?
Yes! For now I can say he loves Egyptian Um Kulthum's music.

Following my interview with Murat Karayilan, I had an informal chat with him for about 20 minutes. The informal conversation focused less on politics and war; it was more on how he joined the PKK, what music he likes, his connections with football and Amedspor, his life routine and work especially in the past 12 years in the caves, what books he read and write, and what has made him shed tears. Yes, he told me that, too!

Now that I have watched it again, my voice is not so good because of the echo in the cave with one camera and it seems my mic was off, but I believe @the_amargi readers and viewers would like to watch this, too!
Stay tuned for this!

A new analysis argues that Peshmerga unification and talks on reopening Kurdistan’s parliament could mark a shift from political survival to statecraft, if announcements become reform. By Bamo Nouri: https://t.co/2dAEi4NtMp

[Dr. Bamo Nouri @Bamonouri]

My latest for @the_amargi asks: is Kurdistan finally moving from political survival to genuine statecraft?

https://t.co/0Id7bO9k4a

[Dr. Bamo Nouri @Bamonouri]

Are Kurdish elites finally listening?

Peshmerga unification, renewed KDP–PUK cooperation and efforts to reopen parliament suggest change may be underway.

But announcements aren’t reforms.
