Synopsis

This is the Second of the Three book series from Steve Tataii's Liberation of Iraq War memoirs, focusing on the Independent South Kurdistan news developments, which has been his ongoing contribution with spontaneous, critical and emotional writings in defense of the rights of over 5-7 million Kurds of South Kurdistan [the North of the defunct Iraq] in the past 3 years. He has written his responses in a decisive, intense, and prolific style as the events unfold and seen in the most recent, and fresh News developments in his contributing articles published throughout the world for News Websites such as www.eKurd.net, www.KurdistanObserver.com , www.Klawrojna.com , www.Kurdishmedia.com , and many others, including print media. On May, 22, 2004, Tataii nominated Mr. Talabani to become the president of "Arabistan" [South of Kurdish region], and President Massoud Barzani as the president of the Independent South Kurdistan in his famous article published in this book. In his DEC 5, 2003 article Tataii called for Iraq to choose its original form of nationhood the way it used to be before 1920s; one state for Kurds in the North, and the other for Arabs in the South as you'll read in this book under the title:"The best solution is to divide Iraq into two Nations based on ethnicity: The Republic of South Kurdistan, and the Republic of Arabistan."

About this title

About the Author:

Steve Tataii is a prolific writer, who has been writing about the Liberation of Kurds since 1976, and his most intense writing began right before the start of the Iraq Liberation war on August 2002, when he was interviewed by Kurdish Media about his stance on Kurdish freedom and Independence particularly in South Kurdistan [North of the Liberated Iraq], and while campaigning for a seat in U.S. Congress as a grassroots candidate. He has two degrees from the University of Hawaii in Mathematics and Political Science. He speaks six languages, four of which are from the region, and has gifted Conflict Resolution skills on macro and micro levels. He has done extensive educational work as a lecturer on recent Kurdish political history. He has been writing his own speeches and articles both in Hawaii, a few other states, and also on his visit to Europe in 1989. The news of the "GAP" DAM project by Turkey, discovered from that 1989 trip, was most vital to the survival of the Kurds in their valleys with thousands of Kurdish villages. On his return home in Hawaii, he authored two of many resolutions, which called to put a moratorium on Turkey's attempt to build more than 20 DAMS in North Kurdistan, South East of Turkey, at the "WILD" conference of the indigenous peoples held at the University of Hawaii. The DAMS would have uprooted more than 5 thousands villages with over 6 million Kurds inhabiting them for thousands of years, and would have destroyed thousands of native endangered species found no where else. A Kurd from both Kurdish parents himself, he has firmly believed; that the best solution to Kurdish people's stateless dilemma, aside an already Independent South Kurdistan, for the other three parts, will be through peaceful political negotiations and political solutions.
