The study aims to understand the Iraqi public's attitudes toward social issues posted on social media، specifically Facebook. It raises questions about the content of comments، whether they are negative or positive، whether they indicate respect for other opinions، or the opposite، whether the public engages in dialogue through comments، whether they offer solutions to posted issues، or whether they simply view them. The researcher selected five social issues، which revolved around magic practiced in cemeteries، honoring parents، a murder، an elderly woman working to support herself، and managing household affairs. The total number of comments on these posts reached 1،047، from which the researcher selected 156 comments، based on a systematic random sample، representing 14% of the research sample. The researcher followed a content analysis approach، revealing 59 main categories، with 516 repetitions. One of the most important findings was that the public dealt with issues by resorting to God Almighty، praying against the oppressors and supporting the oppressed. They also blamed themselves for voting for untrustworthy candidates in elections. They also accused the government of failure and corruption. Some comments directed insults and curses، holding it responsible for murders and other incidents. Furthermore، the public volunteered to provide information about serious incidents without any sense of responsibility for the seriousness of revealing this information publicly. The public was also eager to know the causes of crimes or incidents.

attempt to make us recognize the world as “ridiculous,” a world which is both
brutal and farcically trivial and insignificant, a world of ruthless powers, of freaks,
clowns, and victims, of hysteria and absence of truth, a world, as Bernard describes it,
“without hope, mercy, history, or any saving sociology or ideology.

In "historical" fiction, characters that never really existed, give expression to the impact of historical events on the people who really did live through them. The result is not history, as an accurate record of actual events, but fiction in which an earlier age is rendered through the personal joys and sufferings of characters. This paper
aims at investigating the historical realities presented in Dickens’s A Tale of Two Cities.
