Japanese statement on assassination of IFC leader

From Zenko, July 6:

Dear Samir Adil, president of IFC,

I am very shocked to learn that Mr Abd-alhussien Sadam, the head of Safety Force of IFC (Ireaq Freedom Congress) was attacked and assassinated by US forces.

I strongly condemn this heinous crime.

I offer my deepest condolence to the family of Mr Abd-alhussien Sadam and IFC.

And I express my strongest solidarity with IFC and Sana TV in their works to end the occupation of Iraq and to build a democratic, secular and progressive society of Iraq.

MORI, Fumihiro
Co-chairperson of the Committee for Solidarity with Iraqi Civil Resistance,

Emergent Statement of Condemnation against the Assassination of the Head of IFC Security Force:

We strongly condemn the assassination of Mr.Abd al-Hussien, Head of IFC Security Force, by US Special Unit escorted by Iraqi National Guards.

At 3 am on July 4th, US Special Forces and Iraqi National Guards attacked the house of the head of IFC Safety Force, Mr.Abd-alhussien Sadam, and caused severe injuries to him and his daughter. Abd-alhussien was kidnapped and assassinated, while his daughter was abandoned, bleeding profusely.

Prior to this assault, the head quarters of IFC was attacked by US forces and Iraqi police, and five security members were arrested, and beaten and intimidated by the Iraqi police inside US military base.

We strongly condemn this unforgivable, savagery.

IFC is an international organization that is struggling for the construction of secular and democratic Iraqi society by means of non-armed struggles. It demands withdrawal of all the occupation forces, and at the same time, demands the end of politics of violence and fear imposed by Political Islam.
There is not a single speck of justice in the series of assault by US forces.

This assault came just after the official opening of IFC satellite TV 'Sana'. The opening of Sana TV is an achievement brought about by international solidarity among peoples of the world, and it has begun to make reports, to the international community, of the savageries by occupation forces and Political Islam. The images of IFC Security Force to protect the life and safety of citizens encouraged the Iraqi people to a great extant. Also shown in the Sana TV are the demonstrations against the proposed Oil Law which the US government together with the puppet al-Malilki regime in collusion with global capitalists try to get enacted. Iraqi people as well as the people in the international community can also see through this TV what IFC is doing to protect the rights of women and children.

Thus, the emergence of IFC and its satellite TV Sana poses
a great threat to the US government and its puppet al-Maliki regime in continuing occupation. The series of assaults were to suppress the struggles of IFC by violence.

However, people of the world will never allow these crimes. People of the world demand from you the immediate withdrawal of the occupation forces.

We, in solidarity with IFC, strongly require Presidents of Iraq and the USA;

1. to officially apologize to the bereaved family of Mr.Abd al-Hussien, and compensete for his murder and injury of his daughter
2. to vow never to repeat such criminal acts.
3. to immediately stop the ongoing counterinsurgency forces from Iraq now.
