In an opinion article by the academic at the University of Mosul, Hamed Al-Rashidi believes that since the beginning of the occupation and after the systematic disintegration of the social fabric and the killing of citizenship in it , the government and local and international civil society organizations have sought to work on the concept of coexistence to restore social cohesion, but they have tried in vain . Because the prevailing situation on the ground is for the influential and those in power who establish and legitimize laws that contradict the concept of coexistence.
The first ABC of coexistence is to dissolve ideological, sectarian, ethnic, spatial, tribal and regional differences, not to root them, deepen them and transform the homeland into spatial cabins for each societal faction, more than any other, divided according to what was mentioned above, sectarian, ethnic, regional , etc.
What the state is working on for the concept of coexistence and is draining money for, the political blocs are seeking in return, and for the purposes of (taming the herd), to deepen the gap between (the oppressed component), minority rights, (resisting demographic change), and the tribal fabric.
All these names do not contradict coexistence in one vessel , and the fragmentation of society and its transformation into ethnic and regional sects serves primarily the control of those who claim to represent these components electorally, as we see some …
The parties that stand in the way of the government’s decisions to expand vital cities under the pretext of violating the rights of a particular component, we will wait a long time until the people become aware, and the fear is that they will not become aware until the end. The earlier they become aware, the less the losses will be, and the return to zero and then the recovery will be faster than if the tunnel is long, and the return will be difficult, if not impossible. Therefore, the question remains open (to where and when ) .
