Even official statistics indicate the removal of 400 houses from this quarter; they were leveled to the ground with many of their inhabitants buried under the debris. The wounded [individuals] from this quarter, who were [being treated] at Halabja Hospital, were executed for no reason. Their only guilt was [that] in 1987, they noticed that the overthrown regime had deported the villages surrounding the district of Halabja, and they were preoccupied by a legitimate fear that the city of Halabja would be the next target for deportation.” 1 – Excerpted from the pre-hearing presentation of the Halabja trial 0F Kani Ashqan is the name of a neighborhood in the Halabja district, which was systematically destroyed with explosives and construction equipment in the year preceding the main Halabja chemical attack, as part of the al-Anfal Campaign in the 1980s. The destruction of the Kani Ashqan quarter was in retaliation for the demonstrations protesting the deportation of neighboring villages. Included in this section are military documents, such as memos and lists of the wounded and killed civilians that were the victims of this deadly campaign. Court documents from the pre-hearing presentation of the Halabja trial are also included in this section, as well as one of the most important documents issued by Saddam Hussein himself— the notorious Decree Number 160 in which Hussein gives his cousin, Ali Hassan al-Majid, otherwise known as “Chemical Ali,” full authority in the northern Iraq region. 1 Item 12 In the Name of God, the Most Gracious, and Most Merciful In the Name of the People Revolution Command Council Decree no./160 Decree date: 3/29/1987 Decree In compliance with the provisions of Item (6) of Article Forty-Two, and Item (6) of Article Forty-Three of the Constitution, and in execution of what has been decided in the joint meeting of the Revolution Command Council and the Regional Command of the Arab Socialist Ba’ath Party held on 3/18/1987, the Revolution Command Council has decided in its session held on 3/29/1987 the following: First - The comrade Ali Hassan al-Majid, member of the Regional Command of the Arab Socialist Ba’ath Party, [has been chosen] to represent the Regional Command of the Arab Socialist Ba’ath Party and the Revolution Command Council in the execution of their policies in the entire northern region, including the autonomous region of Kurdistan, in order to protect law and order and ensure its stability, and apply the Autonomy Law in the region.

  • Monitoring of Water Level Fluctuations of Darbandikhan Lake Using Remote Sensing Techniques
    1 Plant Archives Vol. 20, Supplement 2, 2020 pp. 901-906 e-ISSN:2581-6063 (online), ISSN:0972-5210 MONITORING OF WATER LEVEL FLUCTUATIONS OF DARBANDIKHAN LAKE USING REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES Dalshad R. Azeez* 1, Fuad M. Ahmad 2 and Dashne A.K. Karim 2 1College of Agriculture, Kirkuk University, Iraq 2College of Agricultural Engineering, Salahaddin University, Iraq *Corresponding author : [email protected] Abstract Darbandikhan Reservoir Dam is located on the Sirwan (Diyala) River, about 230 km northeast of Baghdad and 65 km southeast of Sulaimaniyah - Iraq. Its borders extend from latitude 35° 06' 58 ''- 35° 21' 07 ''N and longitude 45° 40' 59'' -45° 44' 42'' E. In order to monitor the fluctuation in the level of this lake, Landsat Satellite images were collected for 10 years included, 1984, 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, 2017, 2018 and 2019 for the same time period. Next, the classification of satellite images and the measurement of areas were done using ArcGIS 10.2. In order to study the effect of droughts and wet conditions on water levels in the lake, the standardized precipitation index (SPI) method proposed by Mckee, 1993 was used. In the current study, the 12 months’ time scale SPI values (SPI-12) that was considered individually for the years 1984-2017 were estimated. Each period starts from January and ends in December. It was found that the water level in Darbandikhan Lake has experienced periodic changes during the period from 1984 to 2018. The results also showed that there were some gradual drought trends in the study area according to precipitation changes during the years studied, where severe drought dominated several parts of the study area, and the worst were in the years 1995, 2000, 2915 and 2017.

  • Plural Genetic Algorithms Approach to Control Agricultural Mechanization and Wheat Production Yousif Y
    Journal of Mechanical Engineering Research and Developments ISSN: 1024-1752 CODEN: JERDFO Vol. 43, No. 5, pp. 373-383 Published Year 2020 Plural Genetic Algorithms Approach to Control Agricultural Mechanization and Wheat Production Yousif Y. Hilal*, Raqeeb Hummadi Rajab, Arkan M. A. Seddiq Department of Agricultural Machines and Equipment, College of Agriculture and Forestry, University of Mosul, Iraq *Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT: For many years the Iraqi wheat production has been facing the challenge of the reduced rate of grain yield caused by the drop in wheat production and high land usage. In the wheat production, the presence of many variables, selecting critical input energy play a crucial role in apprehending different issues, i.e., optimization yield and decision making. The study presents a genetic algorithm program developed to identify the relevant variables affecting the wheat grain yield and straw. In this method, a subset of variables was obtained from a large set. Under a given set of assumptions of active interest in wheat grain yield and straw production predictions in Iraq. Research findings used three years of the wheat mechanization operation that includes tillage, seedbed preparation implements, seeding implements, fertilizing, and pesticide implements, and harvesting. P-fertilizer, seed, and N- fertilizer consumption are considered the most important variables in wheat farm operations, its importance being the relative values of 0.431,0.327 and 0.273. These variables impacted wheat operation during the three years at 19007.1, 28985.607 and 6788.8275 MJ /ha for Bakrajo, Ranya and Chamchamal, respectively. The research concludes that the genetic algorithm method is a user-friendly variable selection tool with excellent results because it can choose variables correctly.
