Iraq and the Limit of Freedom

Abbass Alkhafaji

Slippery Rock University

This presentation highlights the changes that have taken place in Iraq in the past 2 years. Traditionally, Iraqi individuals have not judged people based on sectarian identity—Sunni and Shiite. Iraqis have lived side by side for years; they have respected each other and married each other without any complications in most cases. Indeed, many Iraqis come from mixed families or neighborhoods and enjoy the similarities and the differences such intermarriage brings. Since the global media and satellite news outlets have started to classify the Iraqis as Sunni, Shiite, and Kurd, the Arab media and news outlets, including this article, have adopted the same terminologies with serious reconsideration.

Key Words: Sunnis • Shiites • Kurds • destabilization of Iraq • determination of the Iraqi people
