Statement

June 14 - 202 1   Our beloved country went through very difficult circumstances in these days, which put Iraq before a serious existential challenge, had it not been for the divine providence of this holy country and the fatwa and directives issued by the supreme reference, Sayyid Ali al-Sistani, who stopped a terrorist monster that had terrified the whole world, and the fatwa led to the judiciary On this organization during a period the whole world could not have imagined.

The fatwa came out of a patriotic spirit that addressed the comprehensive Iraqi identity, as is the permanent accepted approach in the positions of the rational reference that refused to address any Iraqi except with his Iraqi identity, leaving sectarian and ethnic headlines completely away from its political discourse.

Iraqis of all kinds and sects have responded to the comprehensive call for all volunteers to join the official security forces to confront ISIS.

The fatwa pumped new blood into the body of Iraq and the Iraqis, and the world was living a difficult moment over a horrific event that was manifested in the loss of Iraq’s largest city (Umm Al-Rabeein) and its fall into the hands of the terrorist ISIS, and the subsequent fall of multiple provinces and cities, the slaughter of its people, the desecration of their sanctities and the captivity of their women, by terrorist gangs.

The criminal, decimated plowing and offspring, committed the most terrible massacres and genocide against our people, and they wanted to obliterate the history and identity of our country and people.

All of these came as a result of neglect in the care of the security institutions and the heroic Iraqi army, and the accumulation of wrong policies that led the country to these disasters.

We are working to correct these paths and put the country on the right line by supporting the armed forces and controlling their performance in accordance with national military rules, as always recommended by the reference, warning against exploiting the fatwa politically and economically in favor of non-national projects that spoil the sacrifices of heroic volunteers.

Hence, I address my honorable people, the people of Iraq, the cradle of human civilization and the land of prophets and guardians, that we always strive to consolidate the pillars of brotherhood among the people of society as a single national fabric that enjoys all their rights without discrimination, and we address the claims of hatred and incitement to violence.

O great people, we remember this day not in order to awaken the wounds of orphans and widows, but to benefit from the lessons and correct the mistakes.

Let us look to the future and build a strong and capable Iraq in which human beings are respected without discrimination and discrimination. The language of tolerance and forgiveness must prevail and overcome the language of revenge and violence.

This government of yours, despite all the difficulties and obstacles, is standing strong in order to build a bright and promising future. Soon you will have a role in building your future through your participation in the elections for the purpose of choosing the best representative for you.

This government took it upon itself to follow a moderate and deliberate approach in dismantling crises, and to move away from the policy of reactions and excitement that had previously taken the country towards disasters.

I extend my thanks to you, the patient Iraqi people, to our armed forces in all their forms, and to the wise supreme reference, Grand Ayatollah Sayyed Ali al-Sistani.

A tribute to the martyrs of Iraq who sacrificed their lives for the freedom of their country and the liberation of their people and humanity from the scourge of terrorism.

Mustafa Al-Kazemi,Prime Minister and Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces,

14 - June – 2021   https://pmo.iq/press2021/14-6-202101.htm
