May 1st, the Day of Workers Solidarity

Workers of the world celebrate on this day along with the rest of the human being in the world who hope for freedom and equality. And when the workers celebrate this occasion they are not only to commemorate the US workers more than a century ago, however 1st of May have gained a characteristic that makes it a symbol of protest movement against exploitation, and a representation of the freedom and equality.

On such day every year, billions of people around the world celebrate without paying attention to the race, color, language, or religion. It is only one banner that unifies the human being and denounces any differences and discrimination.

The Iraqi workers along with the freedom lovers in the society raise the 1st of May flag to symbolize the unification and solidarity while they live in an miserable atmosphere represented by the dark scenario, that is already prepared to divide the society and push towards an ethnic and religious war which we witness every day.

Amid these conditions the workers flag rises high up through which the voice of workers roars to restore the civility to a society threatened to be abolished throughout conflicts and devastations.

While the political groups contend each other to get their share in the government, we the Iraqi workers get together despite the harsh conditions to hold our conferences and bring about our alternatives to salvage the society. We meet to demonstrate and protest in demanding a better living conditions and the expansion of civil liberty for the entire society.

The conditions resulted from the occupation have reached up to a point threatening to demolish the whole structure of the society, whereas the political powers stand paralyzed to provide any solution to pull the society out of this bottomless hole. At the same time the occupation forces keep deepening these miseries by continuing the occupation and installing a government based on the ethnic and religion to pertain their plan.

Revolving around the libertarian alternative and forming their organization is the major step for the workers to block the way before the powers who are in desire of tearing up this society, spreading conflicts, and creating hates and enemies among the people.

Let’s make the 1st of May a day of unification and organization

Let the unification of the wokers be significant in ending the occupation

Let the libratarian powers support the workers in their efforts to end the miserable conditions

Let the Iraqi workers organize themselves in a capable and efficient



Long Live May 1st
