اخطر ثلاثين قانون في تاريخ العراق في اول يوم من حكم واثق الشمري

Overview

The video presents a first-person, hypothetical program for Wathiq al-Shammari’s first day in power. It promises sweeping change but combines social benefits and state-building proposals with extreme authoritarian measures and threats of violence. The subtitles repeatedly restart or misnumber the “laws,” so the proposals are best understood as themes rather than as a reliable numbered list.

Proposed Measures

• Movement and official privilege: Abolish checkpoints, concrete barriers, and the Green Zone; open presidential palaces to the public; and prohibit questioning citizens about where they are going unless they are suspected of an offense.
• Transport and public services: Replace taxis and tuk-tuks with modern ride-hailing vehicles. Remove generators and street wiring, guarantee continuous electricity to every home, and provide water, internet, electricity, and health insurance at state expense.
• Prisons, security, and the military: Empty prisons, execute people accused of terrorism, and release some other prisoners to serve in state forces. The speaker threatens to execute soldiers or commanders who disobey orders and says he would temporarily lead the defense and interior ministries. He also proposes extreme collective punishment: if gunfire or armed resistance occurs in an area, civilians would be evacuated and the area could be razed.
• Political and financial purges: Replace Iraq’s currency to expose hidden wealth; confiscate politicians’ and officials’ assets; restrict overseas travel; and investigate ministers, parliamentarians, contractors, and other political figures dating back to 2003. He also proposes abolishing parliament and party influence, cutting political salaries, and replacing party-affiliated staff with graduates.
• Foreign policy and armed groups: Demand the departure of foreign forces and an end to Iranian influence in Iraq. The speaker describes possible arrangements involving Iran and Israel and insists Iraqi airspace should not be used for attacks, while also issuing threats over foreign interference. Armed factions would be offered a choice between joining state forces and being treated as enemies.
• Public order and civil liberties: Ban smoking in many settings and impose severe penalties for littering. Demonstrations and public political expression would be prohibited outside a designated area, although people could express religious or political views there and through a proposed broadcast channel. The speaker characterizes democracy as unsuitable for Iraq and threatens death for protesting outside the permitted space.
• Social and legal reforms: Give 18-year-olds a salary and an apartment until age 25, abolish tribal law, and create an online court system intended to respond quickly to complaints. He also promises jobs for graduates, a stronger Iraqi passport, and improved diplomatic protection for Iraqis abroad.

Overall Message

The speaker claims he can rapidly make Iraq secure, prosperous, and internationally respected, and calls for absolute loyalty to his leadership. Promises of free services and modernization are repeatedly paired with executions, repression, and threats against opponents.
