More From Muqtada Al Sadr

If The American Military Begins To Withdrawal, There Will Be No Need For These Armed Groups.

America Has Shown Its Evil Intentions, And The Proud Iraqi People Cannot Accept It. They Must Defend Their Rights By Any Means They See Fit.

I Am A Part Of The Political Process Whether The Multinational Forces Are Present Or Not. Politics Is Serving The People, Not Chairs And Positions.

I Would Like To Address The Peoples Of The World, Especially The Arab Peoples And The Us People. Their Silence Over The Violations Against The Oppressed Iraqi People Who Suffered Greatly Cannot Be Accepted By Any Fair-minded And Zealous Person. Therefore, All Must Take These Violations Seriously And Express Themselves Even Through Peaceful Demonstrations, Sit-ins And Protests. I Urge Those People To Distance Themselves From Their Rulers Who Support The West And The Occupation Forces.

Whatever Struggle Happened Between Brothers, Let Us Forget About It And Turn The Page Forever And Live United.

Go Forth From Our Holy Land And Go Back To Your Families Who Are Waiting For You Impatiently, That You And We, As Well, Lead A Peaceful Life Together.

May God Preserve You And Watch Over You.

We Condemn The View That The (u.s.-led) Occupation's Existence Is Beneficial For The Iraqi People Because If It Ended, There Would Be Sectarian War - As If Sectarian War Has Not Already Begun.

I Am Confident That You Brothers In Parliament Will Champion The Will Of The People Over That Of The Occupier.

Enough Of This Occupation, Terror And Abuse. We Are Not In Need Of Your Help. We Are Able To Combat And Defeat Terrorism, And Achieve Unity. We Are Not In Need Of Your Bases, Your Experience And Etc.

We Don't Kill Iraqis - Our Hands Do Not Kill Iraqis. But We Target Only The Occupier With All The Means Of Resistance.

Everything That Happens Is Determined By God.

Everything Happens For A Reason

We Have Not Forgotten The Occupier. We Remain A Resistance.

Do Not Betray The People.

Our Rejection Of The Occupier At Heart Is Resistance.

I Wish To Be A Martyr, And I Don't Fear Death.

I Seek The Spread Of Freedom And Democracy In The Way That Satisfies God. They [americans] Have Planned And Paved The Ways For A Long Time, But It Is God Who Is The Real Planner - And The Proof Of This Is The Fall Of The American Twin Towers [...] A Miracle From God.

Our Main Goal As Iraqi People Is To Drive The Occupation Out In Any Way.

I Will Continue To Defend Najaf As It Is The Holiest Place. I Will Remain In The City Until The Last Drop Of My Blood Has Been Spilled.

Anyone Supported By The United States Is Cursed By Us.

Help Me By Whatever You Are Pleased To Do In Your Provinces.

I Repeat My Demand That The Occupier Leave The Land Of Our Beloved Iraq Unconditionally, Without Retaining Bases Or Signing Agreements.

Who Is Against Democracy? Is It The One Who Calls For Peaceful Resistance, Or The One Who Bombs People, Sheds Their Blood And Leads Them Away From The Leaders Under Feeble And Dirty Pretexts?

We Are Still Resisters, And We Are Still Resisting The Occupier Militarily And Culturally And By All The Means Of Resistance. Repeat After Me: No, No For The Occupier.

I Beg You Not To Resort To Demonstrations, For They Have Become Nothing But Burned Paper.

Out Of My Desire To Complete Iraq's Independence And To Finish The Withdrawal Of The Occupation Forces From Our Holy Lands, I Am Obliged To Halt Military Operations Of The Honest Iraqi Resistance Until The Withdrawal Of The Occupation Forces Is Complete.

We Do Not Kill An Iraqi.

The Us-led Forces Have The Money, Weapons And Huge Numbers, But These Things Are Not Going To Weaken Our Will Because God Is With Us.

If Responsibility Is Not In The Hands Of The Iraqi Government, Then I Consider The Responsibility For This Event Lies With The Occupation Forces Which Should Either Leave Immediately Or According To A Timetable.

I Will Deal With The Politicians In A Political Way And With The Nonpoliticians In A Nonpolitical Way.

All Iraqis Should Live Under One Roof And For One Goal.

I Have A Red Line Against The Americans.

Make Your Enemy Afraid, For It Is Impossible To Remain Quiet About Their Moral Offences.

What If The Invasion Forces Will Not Leave Our Lands? What If The U.s. Forces And Others Stay In Our Beloved Lands? What If Their Companies And Embassy Headquarters Will Continue To Exist With The American Flags Hoisted On Them? Will You Be Silent? Will You Overlook This?

I Don't Want The Chair Of The Government Because It Will Be Controlled By The U.s. And I Don't Want To Be Controlled By The U.s.

The U.s. Will Ignore The Opinion Of The Iraqi People And It Will Compose The New Government According To Its Own Desires.

The Iraqi People Are Suffering Just As If They Were Still Under Saddam.

The Resistance Will Be Exclusively Conducted By Only One Group. This New Group Will Be Defined Soon By Me.

If It Does Not Serve The Iraqi People, There Are Only Political Means That Must Be Followed To Reform The Government - A New Government That We Must Give A Chance To Prove That It Is There To Serve The People.

For Us, Holding On To Religious Rules, And Following Them, And Refraining From What's Forbidden, And Being Diligent With Our Duties, What Do We Call That? That's What We Call Freedom.

God Willing, The Occupation Forces Will Be Driven Out As Happened In Vietnam.

If The Government Fails To Listen To Your Demands, Then You Will Decide What Is Best For You.

I Have Said It Many Times: The Policy Of Exclusion And The Policy Of Marginalization Must End In Iraq.

Anyone Who Seeks To Be Involved In Politics Should Join Hands With America.

I Renew My Call For The Occupier (the United States) To Leave Our Land. The Departure Of The Occupier Will Mean Stability For Iraq, Victory For Islam And Peace And Defeat For Terrorism And Infidels.

So, If I Were Arrested Or If I Were Killed, Then After Me The Issues That American Fears About Me Wouldn't Exist Anymore - And I Couldn't Tell You What Those Issues Are

Saddam Is A War Criminal And There Are No Two People Who Can Argue Over This.

Divisiveness Is Not Good For The People.

I Fear Only God, All Praises To Him.

We Will Not Stop Resisting The Occupation Until Liberation Or Martyrdom.
