Denunciation statement
15.8.2007
The Iraqi people have witnessed a
new crime which claimed the lives of many of our innocent Yazidi brothers and
sisters. Iraq is being devastated by waves of religious, sectarian, and
ethnic violence. This act is the continuation of a series of criminality,
terrorism, and intimidation against the Iraqi people.
What has happened in Iraq, and the circumstances of its occurrence has coincided
with the campaigns of extermination against the Iraqis, and are continuing the
operations to eliminate the original inhabitants of Iraq. The process of eliminating the indigenous population of Iraq began, when the Assyrians became a target of terrorism in
all its forms, manifestations, methods, and its source. The criminal efforts
have converged upon the silence of the government and the political processes
of displacement, systematic killing, and genocide. Today, more Iraqis reap the
bitter fruits of that silence and those efforts that spanned today to claim the
lives of more Iraqis.
We at the Assyrian General
Conference deplore what happened in Sinjar and stress that what is happening to
Yazidis and Assyrians and other Iraqis is part of a large organized plot to
change the image of Iraq. Forces are seeking to erase the cultural and historical
depth and coherence and to cut the ties between his sons in order to facilitate
the division of Iraq. Here, we hold all honorable Iraqis responsible for
maintaining diversity and the lives of the Iraqi people, as we hold the
occupying forces responsible for the protection of all Iraqis, in particular
nationalities of the people that have become a target of terrorism, Assyrians
and others as is required by law and the international laws on occupying forces.
God
bless martyrs of Iraq
Long
live united Iraq
