700 Iraqi dignitaries find Iranian regime’s infiltration the cause for crisis in Iraq

Thursday, 04 October 2007

NCRI - More than 700 Iraqi dignitaries including Parliamentarians, political and governmental figures, Jurists and tribal leaders in a letter to the United Nations Secretary General blamed the Iranian regime for the present crisis in Iraq.

They demanded the United Nations to hold early elections in Iraq with necessary international guarantees. They requested from the UN Secretary General to immediately begin this process which is the inalienable right of Iraqi people.

The letter also states that, "4 million refugees, 650 thousand dead and millions injured and devastation of all the economic, social, service and security infrastructure is the heavy price paid for infiltration of Iranian regime and its proxies in our country.

"The painful thing is that our country is going through the most brutal suppression under the democratic mask of “legitimate elections.

"Everyone knows that the basis for the government is not democracy or people’s vote but murder, terrorism, death squads, instilling fear and imported bombs from Iran.

"Previously, many leaders of democratic Parliament committees have demanded a new election to end the violent suppression and brutal acts of the current regime.”
