Iraqi CP strongly condemns terrorist wave of bombings
Iraqi Communist Party strongly condemns
terrorist wave of bombings and attacks
The Political Bureau of the Iraqi Communist Party
strongly condemned the terrorist wave of bombings and attacks in Baghdad, Hilla
and other towns across Iraq on Wednesday 13th June 2012 that killed dozens
of people and also caused material losses.
A statement issued by the Political Bureau on 14th
June 2012 pointed out that these heinous acts, timed with Imam al-Kadhim
religious ceremonies, were aimed at exploiting the ongoing intensified
political crisis in order to inflict greater harm on innocent people.
The statement also stressed that the government and its
security institutions must ensure the safety of citizens through enhancing
their capabilities and collaborating with the people to defeat the terrorists and
their evil schemes that are hostile to the people’s aspirations and their
yearning for freedom, peace and stability.
While strongly condemning the terrorist attacks and those
who were behind them, and offering deepest condolences and sympathy to the
families of martyrs, and wishing the wounded a speedy recovery, the Iraqi
Communist Party called for radical solutions to the current political crisis
that would put the country on the right path leading to a better life for Iraqi
citizens. “Achieving this requires maintaining multi-sided popular pressure, peacefully
and constitutionally, to enable the masses to have the final word in accordance
with the highest interests of the people and homeland,” the statement said.

Communiqué
of the 9th National Congress of the Iraqi Communist Party
(8-13 May 2012)
The Iraqi Communist Party held its 9th National Congress during the period 8-13 May 2012, in Baghdad and Shaqlawa, under the slogan: “A Federal Democratic Civil State.. Social Justice”. The opening session took place on 8th May in Baghdad, with a big official and popular representation.
Comrade Hameed Majid Mousa, the Secretary of the Central Committee,
delivered a speech at the opening session in which he stressed the determination
of Iraqi communists to continue the struggle for the good of the people and the homeland, and to march forward on
the path of building a modern democratic civil state; a fully sovereign and
independent state that is based on institutions and the rule of law. He
expressed the determination of the party to achieve its goals that are embodied
in its well-known slogan: “For a Free Homeland and a Happy People", and also
to rid the political process of its difficulties and crises, in order to
achieve the desired objectives.
The Congress received numerous messages of greeting from Iraq, Arab
countries and all over the world, and from fraternal communist and workers parties
and friendly organizations. The messages praised the role of the party in
Iraq's modern history and in the present time, and its enormous sacrifices and
feats.
In the first working session (held in the town of Shaqlawa, in Iraqi
Kurdistan on 10th May 2012), the secretary of the Central Committee
wished the Congress and delegates success in their work, and called for
exerting greater efforts and consistent work to build a broad mass movement to
achieve a stable and secure new Iraq that guarantees the principle of
citizenship and that is free of the infamous sectarian-ethnic power-sharing
system.
The Congress then elected its chair committee and other bodies: the accreditation
committee, the commission of the political report, the party program committee,
the inner rules committee, the audit committee, and the nominations and appeals
committee. The agenda of the Congress was endorsed and delegates attended four
workshops to discuss the main documents: the political report, the draft party
program, the draft inner rules, and the organizational report.
After extensive discussions of the draft documents, the workshops submitted
their reports to plenary sessions of the Congress where they were discussed and
voted upon. This process was conducted in an atmosphere of transparency,
democracy and the free exchange of views. The
Congress then moved on to discuss and endorse the financial report, after being
passed by the audit committee.
The Congress also approved a number of resolutions and recommendations, and
sent several messages of appreciation, including messages to the Presidency of the
Republic, the Presidency of the Kurdistan region, and to various parties,
organizations, institutions and figures that attended the opening session in
Baghdad, or contributed to facilitating the success of the Congress.
On the last day of the Congress, nominations began for the new Central Committee
and the Control Commission. In a spirit of enthusiasm and high sense of
responsibility, tens of comrades volunteered to work in both committees. After
approving the report of the nominations and appeals committee, the Congress
elected, by secret ballot, members of the party’s new Central Committee and the
Central Control Commission.
The 9th National Congress concluded its work in a joyful
atmosphere, celebrating its successful outcome with revolutionary songs, and reaffirming
the determination to continue the struggle for social progress in a state that
upholds the principle of citizenship and respects human rights and personal and
public freedoms and public; a modern federal democratic civil state.
The new Central Committee held a full meeting in which it elected Comrade
Hameed Majid Mousa as its secretary, and also elected its Political Bureau.
