Mosul is a Kurdish city that has been Arabized the most
Yes. I read in a few places that Kurds gave Arabs several days to leave the city (or else? I don't want to know, really).

What do you think about this?
I don't have any further details yet, but a slightly different story comes from the Mosul reporter of the Al-Arabbiyat TV, who says the people of Mosul, enraged that they still don't have water & electricity, attacked the new city building and attacked the new governor and US soldiers with sticks and stones. Apparently, US army spokesperson in Mosul says "They opened fire and we returned it", and adds that no American was touched.
I wish they would stop with these lies. The exact floors of the Palestine Hotel where foreign journalists stay are shelled, they have to say there was a sniper (they can't say "We say something shining and THOUGHT it was a sniper, but of course it was the lens of a journalist's camera"). There is a mob attacking with sticks and stones and they have to say "They shot at us", which makes me wonder just how dumb they think the Iraqis are, so that if they really were shooting, they would not have even wounded a single American soldier, while getting killed (10) & wounded (100) themselves... |
