The Washington Post published on Tuesday, a report on "counterfeit devices to detect explosives," and provoked considerable resentment in the Iraqi street, after the martyrdom and wounding of hundreds of civilians, the terrorist bombing of Karrada.
It explains the newspaper, that "after more than 200 people killed in a suicide attack to organize" Daash "in the Karrada district of central Baghdad, on the third of July 2016, Iraqis poured their anger at a government corruption and the failure of the state to protect them symbols, a" counterfeit devices to detect explosives. "
Similar to those devices stick, which is not only hanging antenna on a plastic handle, and is still used widely in inspections in the country even after years of arrest duper British who are selling, and the establishment of Britain to ban permanently exported, according to a report in The Washington Post, US .
The paper says that "these devices are used at the entrances embassies, population complexes, government ministries, as used by the security forces at checkpoints such as those located in the Karrada commercial street, which was targeted by the latest suicide bombing Sunday July 3, 2016 morning, which targeted more than once previously "indicating that" the bombings struck crowded shopping centers in the region, to burn to death from the inside, but the Iraqis have resorted to social media to vent their anger about these counterfeit devices. "
The newspaper pointed out that "Amordan mocked across the site" Twitter "from the absurdity of those devices that security used to search for explosives, while broke the Interior Ministry site, and put a picture of a baby dead, with a picture of a detection of explosives carries Daash logo, a hacker has wanted to say that those counterfeit devices not only help those who want to kill innocent people, and wrote a hacker in his letter, "I do not know how Tnamun night, your conscience has died."
With growing anger, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi announced on Sunday evening for the entire stop the security forces from the use of such devices at checkpoints, and it should be on the Interior Ministry to open a new investigation into corrupt deals to buy those devices.
According to the newspaper, they, nevertheless, those devices were used in the daily the following morning, amid uncertainty about the timing of the decision to stop it.
And the movement of the US newspaper Miqdad al-Tamimi, an officer one of the checkpoints north of Baghdad, which is still used one of those devices now saying, "We have not received orders yet, we know it does not work, everyone knows that, and the man who made it now in prison, but I do not have another option. "
The paper that Iraq obtained a device that bears the name of iDEN 651 by a person named James McCormick, a Briton who got sentenced to ten years in his country after he was convicted in 2014 on charges of fraud, was arrested McCormick in 2010 after a ban on the export of the machine by the British government.
Reports indicate that McCormick has won more than $ 80 million from the sales of the device to countries such as Iraq, it claimed his company to have the devices can detect contraband, such as drugs and explosives, after up to kilometers, indicating device manual that using the disclosure of material cards, can the device until the capture of counterfeit currency, or elephant ivory teeth.
In an investigation conducted by the British Broadcasting Corporation BBC, the investigation indicated that the device can not detect anything, according to Sidney Alford, explosives expert British army, has described the sale device that is "unethical at all."
In the mid-nineties of the last century, the FBI has raised doubts about a similar device, which was released in that period device called Gopher, assume that the finding golf balls, but it was not successful in that, as the antenna moves in response to any small movement caused by hand user, and was one price of the device in that period to $ 69, but that McCormick was able to sell his machine in exchange for thousands of dollars apiece, according to local news reports.
Although it proves that those devices fakes, still reliable constant in the Middle East, has caused an increase in questions about how the Iraqis continued use of these devices even after they proved to be false.
In his book "The struggle for the future of Iraq," writer tells Zaid Al-Ali for weeks that followed the British court's decision to condemn McCormick, when Iraq has seen several bombings that killed dozens of Iraqis in Baghdad, then hold the Iraqi Prime Minister at the time, Nuri al
Ali says, that the prime minister's response left him "Massaouka", as al
He mentioned in his book that there were two ways, according to the interpretation of what was said by the Prime Minister, "either because he believed what he said (which could mean that he was not able to accommodate how much suffering that was clear to anyone else), or that it was deliberately altering the truth (which may It means that security and Iraqis were second priority to the most important priority for him, which is the protection of reputation).
Ali has suspended the order, saying it was "an illustrative example of an integrated on to the real reason behind the problems of the Iraqis is not a religion, race, and even poor judgment."
The use of computers has continued since the disclosure of this Abadi as prime minister in 2014.
In an interview on a government television channels, he said Iraqi Interior Minister, Mohammad Al Ghabban, he inherited that problem, and that he should be the formation of a committee to reveal whether those devices are already working, also described the problem of detecting explosives that magnitude "greater than the Ministry of Interior." .
However, Ibrahim al-Abadi, a spokesman for the ministry, said that there was an investigation in 2011, has traveled a timely and Interior Ministry officials to the United Kingdom, and concluded that those devices were fake.
He explained, "We think of the withdrawn from checkpoints, but the problem is that there is no alternative." He also added that it could scare anyone carrying explosives or other contraband purposes, so that security personnel Who checkpoints than explored.
He disclosed that a combat unit managers explosives Interior Ministry was jailed for seven years in 2012 due to the purchase of these devices. Two other two have been added to that period because of another provision in 2015.
He says US Yassin (35 years), one of the demonstrators who had gathered near the scene of the blast on Sunday evening "People waiting at checkpoints and bear the heat during the waiting times, but they are going through the checkpoints operate fakes with not only games in the truth."
