We are in Iraq to liberate the oppressed population, and everyday the Iraqi people’s confidence in us grows. They understand our mission; they understand this is not a war against them, or their people, or against the Islamic world. This is not a war against Islam. As Islam is embracing of other cultures, so are we. We pray to the same god. And, our service men and women are out in Iraq laying down their lives in their mission to liberate the Iraqi people.
Iraq’s surrounding nations should face no conflict, of any sort of interest or morales. If you do commit any act of malfeasance of any persuasion, in any form, that compromises any person’s security, or the coalition’s mission, you and your country shall be dealt with in the most severe and thusly, befitting of manners.
And now we are also uncovering links from Saddam’s regime and to international terror groups. Links which now he lays bear in an attempt to blackmail the Arab world’s support. Links such as substantial and in some cases total funding, he utilizes these people in any way he can, and now even on the battlefield, posing as innocent civilians they lace themselves with explosives, supplied by Saddam’s forces, there fate condemned by even their own holy scripture, they take their own lives and as many more as possible, the lives of soldiers, and whoever else maybe in the vicinity, innocent Iraqi civilians, fleeing from war torn lives, to a premature, unfulfilled death. To these people I ask, Is your life worth so little that you would give it up for the continuing rule of an evil regime, and if your answer is yes, then you are wrong.
Saddam’s troops are scared and rightly so, they are reverting to guerrilla warfare, dissolving into the cities, intent on drawing our forces into urban warfare missions. This is a tactic of desperate men, and to these men so terrified of battle that they will de-grade themselves to such a low as to use civilians as battle shields, I simply say surrender. You will be held for the duration of the conflict then released to your families. However, if you fight, you will die.
In places such as Bas’ra our troops are ready, ready to fight, ready to liberate. In the oil fields of the west, our soldiers man oil wells. We have re-started the UN initiative, oil for food program. Um’Qusar is liberated, Saddam’s occupation is finished. We send our deepest condolences to those Iraqi civilians who have lost family members or loved ones through this conflict, and to the families of the British American Polish and Australian Spanish casualties of this conflict.
To those countries who have voiced concern and in some cases anger at the course of action taken by the coalition, I say this; Could you sit by and watch your family slaughtered your wives, daughters, nieces, raped and shot, because you do not share an opinion with the regime, because your in the way. Could you? No you couldn’t now, try to imagine this happening regularly to you, your friends, those in your community, now could you handle that? The Iraqi people have, and now it is time it is stopped, you, you who don’t join the coalition, you are nothing but cowards. To France, I say this, to Germany, I say this, put your political reasoning aside, we don’t ask for your military support we only ask for your support. To Jaques Chiraqu, I say this, your people are a peaceful race and this is granted, so are the people of the UK and the people of America, your comments claiming you will veto any actions taken through the UN to re-establish Iraq’s economy and social welfare are ill-advised, you claim that the entire UN should carry out such tasks, this suggests, you believe the coalition shall be victorious, and with this point I agree. However, I also see this as a greedy action, you have played no part in liberating the people of this impoverish nation, yet you want French contracts to be awarded for the eventual rebuilding of Iraq, this shall not happen, unless you play your role, and now I ask again, will you take the morale path, join the coalition or the cowardous one, and not?
Now is a time of immense national insecurity, and it is vital that nations of great stature, presence and history stand together, from the great nations of Asia to Oceania to those of the Americas and Africa, and Europe, in our utter support for humanity and the deterrence of all evil and terror manifested in extremist groups. To these countries I say this, the world rests on the shoulders of our nations, don’t let it fall.
