Communiqué of the Organization of Women’s Freedom in Iraq on criminal acts committed by Islamists during the month of Ramadan against Women in Iraq and the Rejection and Resistance of Women against Islamic Terrorism.
Terrorist acts against women in Iraq by Islamic groups have increased dramatically in recent months and reached an unprecedented level under the rubric of “observing sanctities during Ramadan.” A fascist Islamic group called “Mujahideen Shura Group” has warned that it will kill any women who are seen on street unveiled whether by themselves or with a male companion!
In the northern city of Mosul, Christian women are targets of a killing, kidnapping and rape campaign. One such barbaric crime took place in this city where two women were kidnapped and raped by multiple men and then were sold as female slaves to another group of men. They were again raped repeatedly for four days before they managed to escape!
In the city of Falluja, at the Mujahideen congress held on October 20, 2004, the Islamic criminal Abdulla al-Janabi and Falluja’s Shura Council gave a fatwa (religious decree) that Mujahideen fighters should rape girls at age 10 before they are raped by Americans!
Scores of university girls have been beaten up, often severely, for wearing jeans or for not wearing hijab (Islamic veil). Women who go to hair dressing salons are frequently attacked by Islamists and their hair is cut in a public display of shaming.
Thousands of leaflets are distributed across the country everyday warning women against going out unveiled, putting on make up, shaking hands or mixing with men. More than 1000 female university students have taken leave of their studies to protect themselves against the terrorism of Islamists.
They kidnap women in the name of “resistance” and only release them after receiving thousands of dollars in ransom for each woman! They kidnap Iraqi and foreign women alike. Margaret Hassan, a British woman known for her help and service to the Iraqi people for over three decades was taken hostage by an Islamic terrorist groups asking for millions of dollars in ransom, otherwise she will be killed like other foreigners.
Today, with the absence of any form of state in Iraq, the terrorist Islamists are seeking to implement their medieval laws through fear and horror. They have come to Iraq with slogans and banners holding signs of swords dripping blood. They are striving to Islamicize Iraqi society through terror. Everyday they are killing Christians, university academics and lecturers, secular personalities, youth, children and any other creature moving on the ground!
This is the benefit of the liberation that the US government has brought to the Iraqi masses. The only true benefit has come to the Islamic terrorist groups, which are free to attack, and kill women!
Women in Iraq and the Organization of Women’s Freedom in Iraq expose these forces, which try to delude people by posing as “resistance” to the US occupiers. The Islamic movement has made it clear that even if the US forces are expelled or withdraw from Iraq , they will declare Jihad against any secular government! They want to establish a Caliphate (Islamic government) where women are will be set back by 1400 years! The Islamic terrorists have come with their bayonets directed at women in Iraq.
We must stand up to the groups of Islamic terrorism in Iraq. There is no other alternative.
The Organization of Women’s Freedom in Iraq announces a local and international campaign against Islamic terrorism. OWFI strongly opposes and fights against this terrorism. We call on the masses and all women from north to south to join our campaign and stand up against the barbarism of misogynist Islamists. We calls on all progressives, liberationists and defenders of women’s rights and human rights, including civil rights and children’s rights, to support the Organizations of Women’s Freedom in Iraq in its struggle against political Islam.
Today the movement for women’s rights and a civil society in Iraq stands up to oppose and end Islamic terrorism and the US occupation of Iraq. As long as the occupation continues, Islamic terrorism against the society will flourish and grow. Support the secular women’s movement!
Join our campaign against Islamic terrorism in Iraq!
