Muhammad Bashar al-Faydi the official spokesman for the Association of Muslim Scholars in Iraq (AMSI) evaluated Sharm al-Sheikh conference as a failure. He called Iraqis to not expect benefit from the conference in the special interview with Arabs Today. “We consider Sharm al-Sheikh conference is a final attempt by the international community and the occupation forces to support this government. So we do not see anything in this step, just a failure. It is not possible to expect hope from this conference to get Iraq out of crisis." Told al-Faydi.
Sheikh al-Faydi said that the international community is trying to remove the current government which is involved committing crimes against the Iraqi people from the crisis and supports those crimes in every way. He said, "Unfortunately, the international community is trying every effort to support this government which is accused of being behind many of the crimes and spreading sectarianism in Iraq through the issuance of the documents of the international community."
al-Faydi pointed out that the document seeks to build government positions opposite to what the international community wants and sees in Iraq. He added, "We have considered the provisions of this document trying to help to the current Iraqi government not to the people," pointing out that it would be better for the international community to disassociate themselves from this government and not to support it. He continued as saying, "There are articles which can be considered good at first glance, but most of them are generally bad. There is an article calling for the dissolution of the militias and integrating them into political and military institutions of the government. There are questions on it wondering how is it possible to reward militias on their crimes by agreeing to integration? It is known by the world that they are responsible and stand behind the crimes in Iraq and the spread of sectarianism. Those militias are directly responsible for the daily bloody violence suffered by the Iraqi people. |
