The US statements about the killing of the leader of the “Islamic State” named (among many other names) Abu Ibrahim al-Qurashi are surrounded by circumstances that are not commensurate with the goals announced by President Joe Biden of the operation, which are “to protect the American people and America’s allies and make the world safer.”

It is also difficult for those who expect America to distance themselves from the language of dictatorships, and the kinds of political propaganda that characterizes those regimes, to accept the propaganda phrases used by Biden and the US Department of Defense about the “skill and bravery of the American armed forces,” including the claim that “all Americans involved in the operation have returned.” safely".

And if we accept, in principle, the idea that a military operation in a town more than ten thousand kilometers from Washington will lead to “protecting the American people” as well as, in consequence, to protecting America’s allies (in Syria and Iraq in particular), then saying that that operation led to "Making the world safer" is a matter of consideration, at least for the six children and four women who were confirmed, by the Americans themselves, to have been killed in the process.

It does not help the US administration much (and may harm it) to focus on the fact that all of these people were killed because of the ammunition jacket that the leader of the organization was wearing, and it is difficult to synthesize this section of the news on the many other details that have been confirmed, including that the attack was carried out by helicopters that carried out more than 4 raids on The building, and that the raiding planes and the forces that carried out the airdrop launched 6 attacks with heavy machine guns, and that they destroyed one of its attacking helicopters, which fell “due to damage.”

This also does not fit with the videotapes broadcast by media outlets located in the area of ​​the attack in northwestern Syria, which show the great destruction of the house, and the presence of bullet holes on the walls, as well as the spread of blood in many parts of the two-storey building.

The operation can be linked on a short time scale to the recent events in the city of Hasaka, in which the organization tried to release thousands of prisoners affiliated with it in Gwiran and “Al-Sina’a” prisons, which raised local, regional and global fears of the possibility of the organization gathering its capabilities and following up on its attacks in Iraq and Syria, and what This means the possibility of provoking terrorist acts in other regions of the world.

As for the long-term, the killing of Abu Ibrahim continues the "War on Terror" series.

Separating terrorism from its true, deep causes is one of the most important elements of that series.

In addition to separating the effects of terrorism from its effects, America's war also ignores the role of the successive political administrations in Washington in promoting the causes of that terrorism, especially in Syria and Iraq, so that we reach a conclusion that conspiracy theories are similar, so that the struggle of the American administrations (and their local allies) corresponds with terrorist organizations, With the need for America and its allies to continue these organizations as a threat!

Assuming that there is a possibility of militarily eliminating terrorist organizations without addressing the political, economic and social reasons for their emergence seems appropriate for the American political administrations (and their allies) because it obscures their great responsibility for creating the grounds for that terrorism. The Turkish-led Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) to control the Syrian Kurdish areas and prevent their interaction with the popular revolution against it, and the government of Nuri al-Maliki in Baghdad, whose repressive and sectarian policies contributed to the transformation of “Al-Qaeda” into the “Islamic State” leading to the great tragedy for the region and the world, which Not over yet.
