"THE IRAQI RESISTANCE WOULD TARGET THE PRESIDENCY,
PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT, AND FOREIGN FORCES,
INCLUDING UNDER UNITED NATIONS CONTROL,
THAT WILL REMAIN IN IRAQ AFTER THE SUPPOSED
"TRANSFER OF AUTHORITY" AT THE END OF JUNE"
We’ll
give you a summary of the last Ba’ath Statement about
the situation in Iraq after June’ 30 :
The
Arab Ba’ath Socialist Party (of Iraq) has issued a
statement in which it pledged that the Iraqi Resistance would
target the presidency, provisional government, and foreign
forces that will remain in Iraq after the supposed “transfer
of authority” at the end of June : “US puppet regime,
any foreign forces brought in to serve after the so-called 'transfer
of power' on 30 June will be legitimate targets of the
Resistance”.
The
Ba’ath statement said : “the transfer of authority to
the governing council appointed by the occupation does not
constitute a real gain for the Ba’ath, nor for the armed
Iraqi Resistance, the legal side opposed to the current
reality and planned future of the occupation. This date was
set by the US Administration in its hopeless effort to manage
its deepening and accelerating crisis in Iraq”.
“The
institutions and individual members of the presidential
structure and the provisional government will be legitimate
targets for the armed Resistance, regardless of the titles or
identities of those persons. Members of the used up puppet 'governing council', including those who
will be leaving office, will remain legitimate targets of the
Resistance, which will take vengeance on them for their
treasonous activity against Iraq and their collaboration with
the occupier”.
The
Ba’ath statement confirmed that “foreign entities,
whatever their titles or natures, that set themselves up in
Iraq under the auspices of the implementation of the transfer
of power will remain illegal and equivalent to the occupation
and its puppet government. Foreign military forces –
regardless of what they are called, regardless of any
resolutions taken by any international or regional
organizations, and regardless of any orders issued by the
puppet government under which they might operate – will be
treated as occupation forces, regardless of where they might
be in Iraq and regardless of whatever function or purpose they
might be commissioned to fulfil”.
The
Ba’ath statement said that “United Nations resolutions
will be simply the legal perfection of the effort to grant
legitimacy to the occupation which is rejected by the Iraqi
People and Resistance. These resolutions will not be binding
or legal as far as the Resistance and the people of Iraq are
concerned. Anything based upon such resolutions and any forces
that come in under their auspices will still be treated as
occupation forces”.
The Ba’ath statement concluded saying : “the
political and security agreements and accords and any other
arrangements that the puppet government might make will be
illegal, as will anything based on such arrangements or
imposed on the Iraqi people under them on Iraqi territory, and
they will be treated like the occupiers and be regarded as
legitimate targets”.
