Translated from ArabicMuqtada al-Sadr: "Najaf al-Ashraf is the capital of Shiism in the entire world... There is no doubt about that. Therefore, actions that harm this holy city must not be carried out, including female employees wearing the hijab in public transportation, especially on Iraqi aircraft heading to Najaf al-Ashraf and its airport."

Translated from ArabicThe director of the commander-in-chief's office stresses the need to deal firmly and strictly with all cases of incitement and sectarian rhetoric, regardless of the entity or parties from which it emanates. Perhaps the campaign should begin with some clerics who have filled social media with their poisonous rhetoric

Translated from ArabicThis is the state of the banks! Every so often, an Iraqi official on television wonders why people keep their money at home and asks them to move it to the banks!
Translated from ArabicAbdulrahman al-Jazairi: "Trump fears and trembles before Mr. al-Maliki, and fears Mr. al-Maliki’s calculations." Indeed, that is why, with a single tweet, he ended his dream and everyone submitted merely because of a tweet!
Translated from ArabicAbu Alaa al-Wala'i: "Regulating weapons in exchange for full and comprehensive sovereignty; an indivisible equation, and anything else is rejected." The resistance sets conditions for the state, not the other way around.
Translated from ArabicSpokesperson for the Sayyid al-Shuhada Brigades: "We used to support many of the Tishreen protesters with material and moral support, food supplies, and tents so that they would maintain calm and stability, and to this day our friendships with them continue." One time you say they are sedition, another time you say they are our friends, and another time you say they are enemies and agents! Settle on one position for once.
