Iraq’s Mosul celebrates cultural comeback

September 9, 2018 By administrator

Music is back in Mosul, as are books and paintings. With the “Islamic State” group gone, locals are enjoying their newfound freedom and embracing culture. Will it last? Judit Neurink reports from Mosul.

In the park in Mosul where the “Islamic State” (IS) once trained child soldiers, thousands have now gathered for a book festival with plays, music and tables full of books donated to the people of the city. Culture is back with a bang in Iraq’s second city, and the “I am Iraqi — I read” festival is just one of many cultural events. The slogan refers to the traditional Arab saying: “Egypt writes, Lebanon publishes, and Iraq reads.”

“We don’t value things until we lose them,” says Ali al-Baroodi, an English teacher at Mosul University who has become the city’s unofficial chronicler, cycling around his liberated hometown taking pictures of the damage and the rebuilding process. “Last year’s liberation of eastern Mosul from Daesh was like a second birthday for me.”

Arts and culture suffered badly under IS, or Daesh [the group’s Arab acronym]. Statues of poets and writers were torn down, works of arts and musical instruments were also destroyed, and the university library burned along with many valuable books. Books were banned, non-religious art was taboo, musicians and artists were killed.

And not just by IS. The repression began soon after the US invasion in 2003, when radical Muslims began to gain more and more ground in the city. “IS is like a ghost — you don’t see it, but it’s there, secretly collecting data on us for when they return,” al-Baroodi told DW. “They ruled in the shadows from 2005, and openly after 2014. It is not easy to end their existence. Under Daesh, I died 1,000 times a day. So the first thing Mosul needs to do is lose its fear.”

And while his father keeps warning him to be more careful, the young photographer feels it’s his mission to record developments in his city. He compares the situation to the first years after 2003, when the Iraqis celebrated the change and the freedom they had longed for — until Muslim radicals appeared on the scene to fight the Americans, putting a rude end to the positive changes. But this time, many in Mosul feel that the change process must be allowed to continue.

‘Better than before IS’

Marwan Tariq, who teaches at Mosul University’s Arts Institute, agrees that progress has been made: “After Daesh, the situation is already better than before they arrived.”

Tariq was one of the first to enter the badly-bombed university campus after IS was chased out early last year. The damage to the Arts Institute was terrible. “Everything that had a connection to art was broken. Pianos, ouds, guitars, but also paintings and sculptures,” he told DW.

Together with his students he started to clean up the buildings that were still standing — without any support from the Iraqi government, which continues to treat anyone who stayed during the occupation with suspicion for possibly having collaborated with IS. At the same time, locals are still afraid of those IS members who went underground.

That’s why you hardly see anything relating to the occupation in the arts now,” Tariq said.

And the arts do not seem to be playing a role in helping people come to terms with what happened to them under IS, in contrast to the Kurdistan region of Iraq, where, for instance, a Yazidi artist has created paintings about the fate of his people.

Artists in Mosul found other ways to celebrate their renewed freedom. In May 2017, when the battle was still raging across the river Tigris, which divides the city in two, both al-Baroodi and Tariq were involved in staging an art exhibition in eastern Mosul. There, pictures and paintings were exhibited against the blackened remains of a university building to the sounds of long-banned music.

And then there was the action by students, teachers and volunteers to save the books that had survived the fire in the university library.

Books and music return to Mosul

In the wake of the fire at the university’s library, al-Baroodi, along with students and other volunteers, was there to document the salvaging of some 6,000 books from the ashes. Thousands of books would later arrive from abroad to replace those that were lost, thanks to an appeal by historian Omar Mohammed, who had garnered international attention for his work as the Mosul Eye blogger during the occupation.

Music has returned, too, with an oud player giving a concert at the art exhibition and a bass player performing at damaged heritage sites, like the Nouri Mosque with its famous Hadba minaret where IS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi declared the Caliphate, which IS destroyed when they were forced out of the city.

Music also features prominently at the book café, the first one ever opened recently in Mosul. There, Fahad Sabah and his business partner Harith Yassin offer a platform for concerts and weekly debates about literature, and a quiet place for young and old, men and women, to read or work, enjoying a cup of coffee or tea. Sabah proudly announces that they are selling Shiite books now, too — another taboo broken in the conservative Sunni city.

Cultural comeback still at the beginning

In the café, where neatly stacked book cases and portraits of writers, musicians and artists contribute to the atmosphere, Sabah agrees that culture has returned to Mosul. “Even before Daesh, debate was impossible for fear of the extremists and their threats. Now society is far more open. Our place is just one example. Look at what we do and who comes in here. We run the first public space where both men and women feel at home,” he told DW.

He recounts how long segregation of the sexes has existed in the city. “Until the 1980s, the cinemas were still mixed. But then came the radicalization of society and village culture went into a downward spiral.”

Sabah wants to work hard to avoid the mistakes that were made after 2003 and build on the new openness — even though it’s estimated that at least a fifth of Mosul’s inhabitants agreed with IS ideology, if not the way it applied it. “That’s why we have to understand our problems and our boundaries. That’s the first step toward a solution. It won’t be easy, so we will have to work hard.”

Mosul: One year on after Turkish Islamic State destruction

July 10, 2018 By administrator

After ISIL, a city still in ruins.

by Tom Peyre-Costa

More than 380,000 people are still displaced in and around Mosul as the city lies in ruins, one year after it was retaken from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL, also known as ISIS) group.

What was hailed by the Iraqi authorities and the international community as a victory has not translated to relief from misery for many Iraqis in the city.

The level of destruction in Mosul is considered the worst in Iraq, with a staggering eight million tonnes of debris.

On the western side of town, few buildings emerged unscathed. Around 90 percent of western Mosul is still devastated, with 62 schools destroyed and 207 damaged.

Some 54,000 houses in Mosul and the surrounding areas have been destroyed, displacing the families who lived there.

Not all families were able to find shelter in camps, and one-third of those living outside of camps may face eviction because they cannot afford the rent.

There has been minimal international support for the displaced people of Iraq over the past year.

An estimated $874m is needed to restore basic infrastructure in Mosul.

With few options remaining, Mosul votes for Abadi’s coalition

May 22, 2018 By administrator

Marta Bellingreri,

MOSUL, Iraq — For the first time since the 2003 US invasion of Iraq, a Shiite coalition has won in Mosul. According to the final election results announced May. 19, The Nasr Coalition won seven seats, followed by six for the Kurdish Democratic Party and four for al-Wataniya. The majority of the local candidates on Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi’s list are actually Sunnis, and its head is former Defense Minister Khaled al-Obeidi, an aeronautical engineer originally from Mosul.

“The Nasr Coalition got the [plurality] in Mosul because it was under Khaled al-Obeidi, who has the respect of the people in Mosul,” Faisal Jeber, a commander in Mosul’s Tribal Mobilization Forces, told Al-Monitor. “The former governor of Ninevah, Atheel al-Nujaifi, didn’t have a good relationship with the government in Baghdad. Mosul’s people are pragmatic, and they understood they need to cooperate with Baghdad. They expect the government to rebuild their city and to be treated as Iraqi citizens, not as Saddamists who deserve to be punished because they are Sunnis.”

Like other Iraqis, Mosulians were less than enthusiastic about the election. “I don’t feel any enthusiasm going to vote or any hope for change,” Badia Almahal, a teacher at a primary school in Mosul, told Al-Monitor on her way to her East Mosul polling station to vote for the Sunni al-Wataniya Alliance. She is a mother of two and her husband Mohammad H., who asked that Al-Monitor not relay his family name, is an engineer. Almahal spent most of her time at home when the Islamic State’s (IS) self-styled caliphate imposed its rule on the second largest city in Iraq, and her husband opened a temporary electronics repair shop to bring in some income for the family. “The governments that have ruled Iraq in the last 15 years are responsible for IS’ takeover and the destruction of our beloved city,” Almahal said. “How could we trust them?”

Many Iraqi voters stayed at home, with a low national turnout of only 44.52% across Iraq. The national results show the Sairoon Alliance, an alliance between the Sadrist Movement and the Iraqi Communist Party, in first place, with the Nasr Coalition coming in second.

Before election day was over and in the days after, children walked the streets and men drove small vans around, busy collecting the metal frames of the countless electoral posters in the city, already putting the election behind them, ready to recycle the material. The results had been expected.

“It was clear that after Abadi’s military campaign in Mosul, defeating IS, and after his announcement last July, Abadi a chance to be successful,” Laura Silvia Battaglia, a journalist following the electoral processes in Iraq since 2010, told Al-Monitor. In a Sunni-Arab area, where people also perceive hostility from the Kurds that increased during the war against IS, Mosulians didn’t have many options left. “It was not possible for them to support former Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki’s coalition or other Shiite parties, in particular not [al-Fateh], the [Popular Mobilization Units], which treated Mosulians during the Battle of Mosul with the same violence as IS.” Abadi is still considered the moderate candidate among the experienced politicians. On the other hand, “it should be taken in consideration that the last members of the Baath Party disappeared from the public political debate,” Battaglia added, “even if they are the closest to Mosulians in sectarian, tribal and cultural terms, in political Saddam-related past policies.”

Armenian churches of Mosul destroyed by Islamic State

January 30, 2018 By administrator

Armenian Church Mosul

Armenian Church Mosul

Armenians have been settling in Mosul (the second largest city of Iraq) since ancient times. There are facts to support this, including the manuscript Book of Sermons (1352) entitled “Book about the City of Mosul by Priest Manuel” (Karin List, 2206). Consequently, it is safe to conclude that Armenians had settled in Mosul in the 14th century, had a spiritual pastor and might have even had a church.

As pastor of Zakho, Priest Mambre Hmaiagian told Hayern Aysor, today there are 2 Armenian churches in Mosul that have been destroyed by Islamic State

The oldest of the churches is the Holy Etchmiadzin Church, construction of which ended on June 7, 1857. It was one of the most beautiful churches of the Armenian Diocese of Iraq, but was destroyed by ISIS due to the events that took place over the past couple of years. According to information provided by the Muslim families living in the vicinity of the church, the church was used as a court, and the Prelacy located in the churchyard – as a prison (if you look closely in the photos, you will see that the windows are closed with metal bars).

Currently, the city is liberated from terrorists, but the road leading to the church has been completely bombarded, and it is impossible to reach the church by car or foot. Recently, Chairman of the District Council of Mosul, Mr. Antranig Kulizian managed to reach the church. Accompanied by soldiers, he reached the church through holes in homes that the terrorists had dug to move freely and without any harm. According to Kulizian, there were bodies of ISIS terrorists in the churchyard.

Newly built church

The other church is a newly built church. The church hadn’t even been consecrated and named when the attacks began. It is also destroyed. Whereas the area near the Holy Etchmiadzin Church was used, as a result of which the walls remain standing, terrorists have tried to destroy the newly built church several times with the use of explosives, but since the church was newly built and had a strong foundation, the terrorists couldn’t achieve their goal.

Currently, there are 3 Armenian families (10 people) living in Mosul.

University of Mosul students volunteer to restore library

August 29, 2017 By administrator

Citing inaction by the Iraqi government and politicians, a group of student volunteers came together this weekend to clean the debris from the University of Mosul’s Ibn Khaldun Center Library.

“We are young, we saw our city destroyed and the government is unable to help,” the organizer of the volunteer group, Mustafa Khaled, told Rudaw English of their work on Saturday and Sunday.

“So we decided to rebuild it and prepare it to be the beautiful university it once was.”

Much of the University of Mosul was destroyed either under ISIS control or by coalition airstrikes in the operations to retake the city from the militant group.

Some 150,000 books were destroyed inside the Ibn Khaldun Center, according to the group.

“We were only able to save about 2,000 books,” said Khaled, a 21-year-old Computer Engineering student.

Several libraries across Mosul were targeted by ISIS and the books inside burned.

The University of Mosul is one of the largest education compounds in Iraq and is situated in the eastern part of Mosul that was announced fully liberated on January 24. The entire city was declared liberated on July 10.

ISIS used the university’s facilities to manufacture weapons and drones. The campus was also one of the group’s main command and control centres in eastern Mosul. In early 2016, coalition warplanes bombed the university, targeting ISIS’ headquarters there.

Khaled is calling for support in the restoration process of the University of Mosul, as the group of volunteers took it upon themselves to do the clean-up without funding.

UNDP stated it July it is helping to rehabilitate the university by providing 50 generators, deploying “cash-for-work” teams to clean the university grounds and clear debris as well as rebuilding dormitories, although Khaled’s group was not a part of such an UN-sponsored team.

“But we are far from the government and the politicians,” he said. “Most of the meetings are politicized and we want our support to be civil or international, not political.”

The UN has requested $707 million for stabilization programs in western Mosul, $174 million in eastern Mosul and another $232 million to stabilize other areas of Iraq.

Germany raises Mosul aid by 100 million euros

July 25, 2017 By administrator

Germany has said it will provide an additional 100 million euros in aid to help rebuild the Iraqi city of Mosul after it was recaptured from Islamist extremists. Much of the city is in ruins after months of fighting.

The German government says it will massively step up its financial aid to the northern Iraqi city of Mosul after its liberation from so-called “Islamic State” (IS) militants, who held the city for three years.

“Now that Mosul has been liberated, we will quickly expand our programs. This year alone we will invest an additional 100 million euros ($117 million) in stabilization and reconstruction,” Development Minister Gerd Müller told newspapers of the Funke media group published on Tuesday.

“We will save lives, ensure school education and create jobs,” Müller said, adding that the focus would be on children, reestablishing the water and electricity supply, building housing, and medical care.

The report said that Germany had up to now invested some 50 million euros in stabilizing areas around Mosul where citizens who have fled the city are being housed, and in reconstructing regions that have been freed from the rule of IS.

Most want to return’

Müller said that German support had already enabled more than 60,000 children in Mosul to go to school again and provided 150,000 people with access to vital drinking water. Most people who had fled from IS have remained in the region and want to return to the city, according to Müller, who has visited a refugee camp in the area.

“It is important that we do not leave people on their own,” he said. He said that IS had caused inconceivable suffering to the people of Mosul, with torture, rape and destruction being the order of

The liberation of Mosul from IS control was officially declared by the Iraqi government in mid-July after a months-long campaign involving the Iraqi army, allied militia, the Kurdistan Regional Government and aerial support from a US-led coalition.

More than a million people have fled from Mosul and the surrounding area since the government campaign began. Several districts in the city have now been reduced to rubble, and security forces still face the task of removing mines and explosives left by the IS militants.

#Turkey Unleashed ISIS on #Mosul Totally Destroyed now want to participate in rebuilding make Billions. @IraqiPMO ‏

July 20, 2017 By administrator

by Fehim Tastekin,

Turkey is working hard to find a place for itself in Mosul’s future now that the Iraqi city is rid of the Islamic State (IS). But tensions with Baghdad during the past couple of years will make it difficult for Turkey to attain the profitable role it seeks in the city’s economic and political restructuring.

There are many in Turkey who feel Mosul should have remained inside Turkish borders after the War of Independence in the early 20th century — hence the nostalgic comments and affection one hears from the Turkmens of Mosul and some Sunni families who were loyal to the Ottoman palace.

But Turkmens, who were drawn into sectarian rifts when IS arrived, are no longer a reliable card for Turkey to play. Turkey’s claim as Sunni guardian caused Shiite Turkmens oppressed by IS to turn against Turkey.

Turkey’s affinity for some Sunni Islamists who had welcomed the IS capture of Mosul also backfired on those who were advocating IS’ rise as “freedom for Sunnis against Shiite rule.” Turkey had problems justifying that attitude, even with its friends.

Further compounding Turkey’s shortsighted vision was its heavy reliance on the Sunni forces of Al Hashd al-Watani led by former Ninevah province Gov. Atheel al-Nujaifi. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan added to the acrimony by branding Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Units (PMU) fighting IS as “terrorists” and saying only Sunni Arabs, Sunni Turkmens and Sunni Kurds should be in Mosul. These actions are all emerging as obstructions to the role Turkey wants to play in reconstructing Iraq, despite the impressive accumulation of experience by Turkish companies in undertaking major projects in that country.

The Turkey-Iraq Business Council, linked to the Foreign Economic Relations Council, met July 11 in Istanbul to assess the situation. Representatives of 150 companies participated. The business council’s chairman, Emin Taha, said there are attractive opportunities from construction to textiles that those companies want to work on.

Several sources told Al-Monitor that Turkey’s refusal to evacuate the Bashiqa army base despite Baghdad’s demands is also preventing Turkey from opening a new page in relations with Iraq. Turkey is aware of the importance of good economic relations with Iraq, and there have been some efforts to improve bilateral ties since Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim visited Baghdad on Jan. 7. But every major step is blocked by the Bashiqa issue. Iraqi reactions on this matter affect not only political-diplomatic contacts but also economic ties.

This is how various sources assessed the situation for Al-Monitor:

  • It’s not easy to erase the negative perceptions arising from past mistakes and wrong political choices. But Turkey is truly trying to use diplomatic channels for improvement. Although Bashiqa remains unresolved, Turkey persistently says it is ready to do all it can for Mosul’s reconstruction.
  • Turkish companies’ field experience can’t be ignored. Despite Baghdad’s objections, these companies will be awarded contracts.
  • Even if foreign companies win some contracts, they will still be able to cooperate with Turkish firms and buy Turkish-made materials. Iraqi companies likewise can make use of Turkish companies through subcontracting.
  • It is too early to conclude that Turkey will be excluded from the entire process.
  • Turkey will soon disclose its plans to contribute to Iraq’s reconstruction and may even offer Iraq limited credit facilities.
  • The Economic Development Agency of Turkey is preparing some projects to restore Iraq’s antiquities.

There’s also the matter of Mosul projects that were left half-finished because of the IS occupation. Turkish companies hope to resume their work there, and the Iraqi government owes $3 billion to Turkish companies. Although Yildirim said the Iraqi government is making payments, not much progress has been achieved.

Now eyes are on international donors for reconstruction. Kuwait wants to host a conference on that topic, possibly at the beginning of 2018. Iraq’s government says it will need about $100 billion for a 10-year national plan.

Iraqi Foreign Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari had said Iraq needs an assistance program similar to the Marshall Plan implemented to rebuild Eastern Europe after World War II. Many countries, including China, are keenly interested in Iraq’s reconstruction. China’s Baghdad Ambassador Chen Weisheng on July 11 delivered a letter to Iraqi President Fuad Masum promising $11.7 billion in financial assistance.

Britain promised a $12 billion credit facility for Iraqi projects; the two sides signed an agreement on the deal April 4.

Iran, which provided substantial support to Iraq and the PMU in the fight against IS, is also determined not be left out of Iraq’s reconstruction projects.

Over 100 Iraqi journalists killed, injured while covering Mosul battle: FAJ

July 14, 2017 By administrator

Mosul Journalist killedThe Federation of Arab Journalists (FAJ)  has announced that more than Iraqi journalists have lost their lives and sustained injuries while covering fierce battles between Iraqi government forces and Takfiri Daesh terrorists in the run-up to the liberation of the country’s second largest city from the extremists.

The Cairo-based FAJ, in a statement released on Thursday, announced that forty-seven journalists were killed, while fifty-five others were wounded while accompanying security troops during battles in Mosul and reporting on the skirmishes.

The federation also extended its deep felicitations to the Iraqi journalists, who covered the details of the battles in Mosul, praising government troops’ victory over Daesh there.

On June 24, French journalist Véronique Robert died from wounds she had sustained earlier in a mine explosion in the western part of Mosul as she was covering Iraqi government forces’ advances against Daesh Takfiri terrorists.

Sophie Pommier, a spokeswoman for the French Embassy in Baghdad, said Robert lost her life at a hospital in the French capital Paris.

The late journalist had been repatriated and transferred to the hospital on Friday after being operated in Baghdad.

State-owned France Television said Robert had covered numerous conflicts and expressed its “sincere condolences.”

French video journalist Stephan Villeneuve and Iraqi Kurdish journalist Bakhtiyar Haddad, who were working with Robert, were killed in the June 19 explosion in Mosul. Haddad died moments after the blast and Villeneuve died hours later from his wounds.

They were reporting for investigative news program Envoye Special broadcast by France 2 national television channel.

Reporter Samuel Forey, who worked for a number of French media organizations, including French daily Le Figaro, also suffered light injuries in the act of terror.

The Metro Center for Journalists’ Rights and Advocacy said Haddad had been injured three times before as he covered the war in Mosul.

In February, Iraqi Kurdish correspondent Shifa Gardi, 30, was killed in a roadside bomb blast while covering clashes between Iraqi government forces and Daesh terrorists just south of Mosul for the Kurdish-language Rudaw television network. Her colleague, Younis Mustafa was wounded.

Iraq declares victory over ISIS in Mosul after bloody eight-month battle to recapture city

July 9, 2017 By administrator

Mosul liberated The Prime Minister Haider Abadi has arrived in the city where 900,000 have been displaced to praise the “heroic fighters and the Iraqi people to achieve the great victory”

Iraq has declared victory over ISIS in the city of Mosul after bloody eight-month battle to recapture it from terrorists.

The Prime Minister, Haider Abadi, arrived in the city one day after Iraqi state television said victory was “within hours”.

His office wrote on Twitter: “Prime Minister Dr. Haider Abadi arrives in the liberated city of Mosul and blesses the heroic fighters and the Iraqi people to achieve the great victory.”

The city was overrun in 2014 when ISIS declared its caliphate and a mission to recapture the city – backed by the US – began in October last year.

Iraqi special forces are closing in on the last remnants of ISIS in Mosul, fighting savage encounters in an area only the size of two football pitches.

Senior army commanders do not expect any of the fanatics will surrender in their last-stand battle around the al-Nouri Mosque – now dubbed “ISIS’s ground zero”.

The ISIS fighters are now surrounded by tough soldiers from the Iraqi army’s elite Golden Division.

Estimates vary on how many fanatics are still alive in a shrinking, constantly shifting battle zone.

Iraqi generals believe there are more than 1,000 left but many are mortally wounded and dying as their lunatic fellow terrorists battle to hang on to the bitter end.

Other observers suspect there is just a handful of fighters left, maybe no more than 100.

Months of urban warfare have displaced 900,000 people, about half the city’s pre-war population and killed thousands, according to aid organisations.

Without Mosul, ISIS is confined to rural areas of Iraq’s desert.
