State of Law: The American presence in Iraq will not end except by force

Member of the State of Law Coalition, Sheikh Haider Al-Lami, confirmed today, Wednesday, that the American military presence in Iraq will not end with an agreement and they must be removed by force.

Al-Lami said in a statement to Al-Maalouma Agency, “The recent attack on the Popular Mobilization Forces in Jurf al-Nasr represents a clear violation of sovereignty,” noting that “America is accustomed to lying and cannot be a friend of Iraq.”

He added that “the file of neutralizing foreign forces from Iraqi territory has become of utmost importance in light of Washington’s continued security breaches, the latest of which was the bombing of the government’s Popular Mobilization Forces,” calling on “national security and political forces to take all legal and diplomatic measures to hold an emergency session to discuss this aggression.”

He explained that “the time has come to break the silence and expel the forces of this occupation from Iraq,” noting that “the bad military presence of America in Iraq will not end with an agreement and they must be expelled by the power and will of the people through their resistance.”

Yesterday, American planes bombed Popular Mobilization targets in Jurf al-Nasr in Babylon, killing 4 fighters.
