When I first watched the Killing Fields last year, I thought to myself if that is going to be our country’s fate. I wasn’t completely pessimistic as I am today but I had my fears.
It is unbelievable how things look exactly the same today. Several scenes in the movie horrified me. One of them was of the young and armed Khmer Rouge taking over the city. But there was a horrible scene which I hoped not to happen in my country. It was about the Khmer Rouge closing schools, forcing people to be illiterate, and killing whoever carries a book or a notebook. The scene starts with the fighters gathering children in new schools they formed. They taught them how to leave education and how to be separated from their families.
Here we are today. EIGHTY policemen, militias or whatever they are named broke into the Higher Education ministry in Baghdad abducting ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY people in 10 minutes.

The new Iraqi Killing Fields started killing education in Iraq.
I am completely shocked. I lost hope forever now. It is now officially the Killing Fields. It is exactly the same thing when the Khmer Rouge killed and destroyed schools and every aspect of education. I feel so miserable and unable to think. It is unbelievable how this country is dying. Education was one of very good things in Iraq. Students from other countries came to study there despite the sanctions that were imposed by the f****en UN. These thugs don't want this. They need to impose their own fanatic teachings.
These crimes aim at killing the ambition of young Iraqis who want to study abroad as well. The gunmen kidnapped employees of Scholarships and Cultural Relations Directorate. The institute is responsible for granting scholarships to Iraqi professors and students wishing to study abroad. It is a plan to kill the hope and ambition of being educated in the heart of every Iraqi.
I am so mad at the Iraqi government. I think the Prime Minister and his interior minister should resign immediately. This was an organized crime in an area where police and army are always present. I have been in that area hundreds of times before as it was near the place where I worked.
I am so desperate. I don’t know what would happen in the coming days. Everything positive has gone. Democracy and freedom killed every positive seed of hope inside our hearts. I hate Bush, I hate Blair, I hate all the American administration. They destroyed my country. They let thugs and thieves rule it.
You American and British people are also to blame for this mess. It is your silence and your support to these two criminals who once supported Saddam. Wake up and move from your chairs and sofas. Do something. Help my country which your countries destroyed. Try to do something before it is too late, if it is not too late.
Alas !!!!
