Such a powerful picture. Iraqi protestors take over government buildings and sit on the chairs of the elected officials that failed them. This is one such example.

Such a tacky chair

Hasn’t any middle eastern dictator heard of something called ‘less is more’?

The ultimate insult comes when the officials realize not only did the protestors sit in their chairs, but also slept in their beds and ate their porridge.

I'll try to tell you in short. In the beginning of the past month, a small group of Iraqi female students went protesting for a better education system and shit. In Basra of course. The police handled it greatly and professionally, by fucking assaulting the students The tribal leaders basically went out and said that they won't let any sly dog touch "our sisters and daughters in Basra" (btw nasiriyans are known to be extremely jealous) But then they were met with water cannons. Before the tribal leaders in Nasiriya threat the government with their weapons (yes, tribes are heavily armed) the tribal leaders in Najaf also started protesting So then it became a large protest, then Amara, Basra, Koot/Wassut, and other big and small cities and whole provinces started protesting Soon Teenagers and Millennials led the protests for 2 weeks. Because if they let the Tribal leaders lead the protests, it would be a blood bath since the tribes are heavily armed and they hate the government, Iran, Kuwait, America, and almost every neighboring country. (They'll cause a civil war in the whole region) So the internet was cut for 2 weeks. Hundreds of protesters died and thousands injured. Then at the next Friday, a big Multi Million protest was organized across the country After that Friday, the dead body count restarted. To this day, it reached 200 people. And 8000 injured.There is no article on earth documenting this. But in the last few days something...really phenomenal happened Almost 30 million people in Iraq have participated and are participating in the protests...But that's not it The Iraqi men and women from all the ages, religions, sects, races, have participated in the protests, Standing side by side, after 16 years of division

Even Kurds, started traveling to Baghdad and Babylon to participate in the protests with their broken Arabic.

Students escaped schools to participate in the protests.

Doctors left their desks to go and heal the protesters.

Unfortunately, Heavy machine guns always fire at the protesters, tear gas canisters and bombs are always aimed at the heads and chests of the protesters. At night rockets fly above the protesters heads and Irani snipers are always scattered around on Buildings.

Unknown masked men wearing black chase and follow the protesters that return home.

One incident was when an activist was seen at a protest, when she return to her home a squad killed her, her husband and her 2 children. Although every Iraqi house has an Assault rifle in it,..

Also, in the heart of Baghdad, the area of Tahrir there are millions of protesters over there, many Areas in Iraq had also overthrew the government. Almost all the politicians and corrupt religious men have fled the country.

Also, the province of Babylon was known in the past years as "the Chicken of Iraq" because of how people fear for themselves. During these protests however Babylon stood out from the other provinces being the most violent towards the government and militia.

Few days ago, a group of Irani militia known as "Saraya-lkhurasani" was raiding homes and killing everyone in the street and kidnapping children. Now, Babylon is known as the black rooster Because every building that belongs to Irani militia and government have been burned. The government is just threatening with execution at this point since many branches of the Army, Police and Kurdish Iraqi army have joined the people and overthrown the government in many areas. The separatist puppet Kurdish government is also scared that the Kurds will join the protests. Especially scared of the Province of Suleymaniya Currently many governments in the region are concerned about Iraq. Especially Turkey and Iran.

Sulaymaniyah is known to have fearsome warriors that never liked or wanted the Kurdish government. Even Sulaymaniyah had protests going for years but they just get killed and executioner the same way with no coverage Kurdish Tribal leaders got to the point of asking protesters in Baghdad if they should also start a protest.

And funny things: Protesters made a new magazine called "the Tuktuk" documenting everything regarding Iraq, they also made a few interesting things like using small satellites as shields or make some, make new structures like nets that are supported by iron rods with a net between them catching tear gas bombs and canisters, on bridges in Baghdad they made bunker and castle like structures able to withstand rockets fired by militias, talking about castles and medieval shields, the protesters even made catapults and giant angry birds like slings.

And a new accessory for women that's shaped as a tuktuk.

Edit: it reached 17,000 injured and almost 500 killed, yesterday, 50 people in Nasiriya got murdered and a massacre occurred both in Basra and in Najaf.

Your news channels are so funny.

Edit 2: don't make your self look stupid by assuming that Iraq is nothing but a chunk of Arab people. Iraq is more than that, there's a diverse culture here with a lot of traditions and different languages
