Zitat des Tages von Muqtada al Sadr:
What if the invasion forces will not leave our lands? What if the U.S. forces and others stay in our beloved lands? What if their companies and embassy headquarters will continue to exist with the American flags hoisted on them? Will you be silent? Will you overlook this?
I will continue to defend Najaf as it is the holiest place. I will remain in the city until the last drop of my blood has been spilled.
Go forth from our holy land and go back to your families who are waiting for you impatiently, that you and we, as well, lead a peaceful life together.
We are grateful to God.
I don't want the chair of the government because it will be controlled by the U.S. and I don't want to be controlled by the U.S.
We do not kill an Iraqi.
I beg you not to resort to demonstrations, for they have become nothing but burned paper.
Help me by whatever you are pleased to do in your provinces.
Our rejection of the occupier at heart is resistance.
The resistance will be exclusively conducted by only one group. This new group will be defined soon by me.
Divisiveness is not good for the people.
We don't kill Iraqis - our hands do not kill Iraqis. But we target only the occupier with all the means of resistance.
America has shown its evil intentions, and the proud Iraqi people cannot accept it. They must defend their rights by any means they see fit.
May God preserve you and watch over you.
I have said it many times: the policy of exclusion and the policy of marginalization must end in Iraq.
We continue to resist the occupier militarily, culturally and by all means of the resistance.
The U.S.-led forces have the money, weapons and huge numbers, but these things are not going to weaken our will because God is with us.
Open the way before the new government to prove that it is for serving the people.
If the government fails to listen to your demands, then you will decide what is best for you.
Make your enemy afraid, for it is impossible to remain quiet about their moral offences.
All Iraqis should live under one roof and for one goal.
Our main goal as Iraqi people is to drive the occupation out in any way.
Enough of this occupation, terror and abuse. We are not in need of your help. We are able to combat and defeat terrorism, and achieve unity. We are not in need of your bases, your experience and etc.
If the American military begins to withdrawal, there will be no need for these armed groups.
Out of my desire to complete Iraq's independence and to finish the withdrawal of the occupation forces from our holy lands, I am obliged to halt military operations of the honest Iraqi resistance until the withdrawal of the occupation forces is complete.
The Iraqi people are suffering just as if they were still under Saddam.
I have a red line against the Americans.
When I die, don't let my death stop the resistance.
Who is against democracy? Is it the one who calls for peaceful resistance, or the one who bombs people, sheds their blood and leads them away from the leaders under feeble and dirty pretexts?
Everything that happens is determined by God.
We are still fighters.
I will deal with the politicians in a political way and with the nonpoliticians in a nonpolitical way.
Let the whole world hear that we reject America. No, no to the occupier.
We have not forgotten the occupier. We remain a resistance.
For us, holding on to religious rules, and following them, and refraining from what's forbidden, and being diligent with our duties, what do we call that? That's what we call freedom.
God willing, the occupation forces will be driven out as happened in Vietnam.
