Al-Kazemi said in a visible speech, which was followed by Earth News, that "the political blocs must sit down, negotiate and understand for the sake of Iraq and the Iraqis, and the language of treason and exclusion must be avoided, and a high and inclusive patriotic spirit must be displayed. A thousand days of quiet dialogue is better than a moment in which a point is shed. Iraqi blood.

Here is the text of the speech:

In the name of of Allah the Merciful

Our great Iraqi people..
my sisters, brothers and sons..
my good people..
Peace, mercy and blessings be upon you..

I address you in this very sensitive circumstance, with all sincerity and love, and in this holy and Muharram month, and we are a people known for believing in lofty and noble values and principles.

This patient and sacrificial people, who have never been stingy for the sake of Iraq from its northernmost to its southernmost, and from its east to its west, deserves a response befitting the scale of these sacrifices...

Our people yearn for life, and they do not like strife, blood, strife, revenge, and strife, and they do not like malice and hatred, and they look forward to a future equal to the size of the sacrifices and suffering they went through.

Accordingly, the political blocs must sit down, negotiate and reach an understanding for the sake of Iraq and the Iraqis, and the language of treason and exclusion must be avoided, and a high and inclusive patriotic spirit must be displayed. A thousand days of quiet dialogue is better than a moment in which a drop of Iraqi blood is shed.

I call on everyone to be calm, patient and rational, and not be drawn into confrontation, and I call on citizens not to clash with the security forces and to respect state institutions.

We must all cooperate to stop those who accelerate this sedition, and everyone must know very well that the fire of sedition will burn everyone.

The circumstance is very difficult, and this is a bitter reality with great regret, and we must cooperate and unite all, so as not to push ourselves into the abyss. We have to govern our minds, consciences and conscience, and rally around Iraq and the Iraqis, not around narrow interests.

Everyone bears the responsibility… the parties, the political class, the social forces and other influencers.. We have to say it, yes, everyone, and everyone should act according to the rules of wisdom and insight for the sake of Iraq, so that we do not lose again.

Iraq is a trust, so we do not lose this trust...
This is a word I say honestly, and I hear what is said in secret and in public, and we are honest, but we hope that others will be honest this time for the sake of Iraq and the Iraqis...

We will bear the responsibility, and we are ready to do anything for Iraq, without hesitation.. The dilemma is political, and its solution is political, and the solution is possible through sincere and constructive dialogue, and making concessions for the sake of Iraq and the Iraqis.

There are enough wise men and men in Iraq, but beware of the continuation of political tension, lest the mines that we have sought over the past two years to quietly dismantle...

I lived.
Long live Iraq as a homeland for us and our children
, and may the peace, mercy and blessings of God be upon you

He added, "Difference in viewpoints, even between the parties, is a normal condition in the most advanced countries and among the most powerful democracies in the world, and whatever its climax, dialogue is the solution. The consequences of matters and their catastrophic outcomes if this tension and tension continues.”

And he continued, "In terms of national, political and functional responsibility, and in compliance with the constitutional oath of Article 50 of the Constitution, which obligated us to preserve the interests of the people, and based on Article 62 of the House of Representatives Law and its formations No. 13 of 2018, and Article 34/eighth of the bylaw of the House of Representatives, it was decided:

” With the sanctity of these great days that recorded the martyrdom of Imam Hussein - peace be upon him - and his pure family, and for the sake of their stature; We wish everyone to consider these valuable meanings, and to hasten to this meeting in the shadows of the great occasion, in a time and place.”

None of these Big Knob politicians are students of History & civilian uprising. When people have had enough of selfish, unenlightened, oppressive criminal governments there's just no turning back. One spark, right place right moment IN HISTORY & the game is afoot.

Presumably an unknown little revolution called The American Revolution that involved the British never made it into the Iraqi classrooms: y'all forget the Russian, French & Arab Spring goings on ???

A thousand days of dialogue is better than one day of blood shed. This statement illustrates the entrenched mindset of these sandbagging politicians.

Have they already forgotten 2019 in Iraq ? Lotta blood shed, unfortunately the same and some new corrupt faces stayed in the game to gum up the works AGAIN.

NOT all revolutions are a success. Those that do affect positive & negative results. It's a real crapshoot out there: these reckless & hapless criminals keep this BS narrative going, roll the dice once too often the wrong # comes up, " crapping out " U lose BIG TIME.

Iraqis have a lot to complain about, but here is a short list:

 

1. They gotta be pissed their vote in October 21 didn’t mean anything. Sadr’s block won the day, but a judge decided that a certain number of parliament has to be present to seat a government. (Which is BS, cause all the opposition has to do is not show up. It’s childish)

 

2. Their currency is worthless.

3. inflation has caused prices to go up on just about everything.

4. Most people are poor. 
5. It’s hot 🥵 😂

He also stressed that “early elections must be accompanied by constitutional amendments regarding the candidate of the largest bloc, as well as the issue of a quorum in the session to elect the president of the republic, since without solving these problems, the equation will not change.”
He pointed out that "the coordination framework rushed a lot and did not study the reaction of the Sadrist movement after it withdrew from Parliament and submitted its members to resign," explaining that "the language of dialogue should prevail, and we hope that Sadr's response will be positive."

The Demorats & Rino's have spent & printed so much money, here in the last year & 1/2, that the U.S.dollar is hoovering around .75 in value, if that! There are a lot people here in the U.S. that are having to make some very hard choices now, because of inflation! Fuel has doubled in price, since the voter fraud of 2020, that brought in biden and his marxist, communist, progressive, Co conspirators! We could wake up and the dollar devalued  to .25  just like Iraq. biden and his Co Conspirators are allowing millions of third world uneducated illegal aliens to, invade our country. There are criminals that are pushing dope through with these illegal aliens, this dope they are bring in with them, is a plague & curse on our young people!of the USA! This dope they are bring into the US, getting people hooked on, is a crime against  humanity! It is wrecking our society! Folks if you leave your home without your pistol you are making a very bad decision! Our police can not protect you! Don't believe me. Call your local Police or Sheriff and ask them if they can protect you! The stuff going on in Iraq is very minor to what is going on here in the United States! We can see what happens to people that go to the US capitol,  like what is going on in Iraq! The demorats will  throw your A$$ in a federal prison,lock you up in solitary confinement! No Bail and no speedy trial! There is no bill of rights in the demorat form of government, just like Iraq! If the demorats don't get their  way, they don't show up either,  trying to shut the government down, just like Iraq. Now in a little over a 100 days till the mid term elections, we see the demorats, going back to their playbook, for another voter fraud play! Now, no more Chinese virus, they know most people, won't accept this again! Now for the old end around! MONKEY  POX! You can't vote in person because you will catch the MONKEY POX or spread it, even though, you are not queering off  with another man, you still have to mail in your votes!!! Just like Iraq! Like magic, the demorat canidates have just enough votes to win their election! Just like Iraq!  I sure hope that we as americans DO NOT let this VOTER FRAUD scheme go down a second time! If the demorats are successful  with ballot box stuffing again, the America I grew up in will be dead and GONE! Just like Iraq!! JMHO! :cowboy2:
