CAIRO, April 15 (IslamOnline.net) - A new front to rebuild and liberate Iraq from the U.S. occupation will be set up in cooperation with a number of national Iraqi movements, head of Iraq’s Islamic Party -- Muslim Brotherhood in Iraq - Eyad al-Samra’i announced Tuesday, April 15.

“The setting up of this nascent front comes in response to the U.S. attempts to form a new Iraqi regime of Iraqi exiles to achieve the U.S. goals,” he told IslamOnline.net over the phone, but made no mention to these national Iraqi movements.

However, al-Samra’i said that his London-based party, which works under ground in Iraq, is currently in contacts with a number of Iraqi opposition factions inside Iraq to “come together to stand up to the occupation and its agents.”

He said this front focuses on achieving two primary goals: forcing the U.S. and U.K. troops out and urging all Iraqi mosaic factions to act in unison for a free democratic Iraq.

“Iraqis should let bygones be bygones and boost national unity, which would play a pivotal role in forcing the occupation troops out,” al-Samra’i stressed.

He also called on Iraqi national movements to reject any U.S. plans aimed at redrawing the geopolitical map of Iraq.

IslamOnline.net received a copy of a statement released by the party, which flatly rejected the U.S. occupation of Iraq and regarded as treason any collaboration with the U.S. and U.K. troops in Iraq.

It also reiterated the inalienable right of the Iraqi people to self-determination and the importance of facing the “psychological warfare,” which depicted Iraqis as warmly welcoming the occupying troops and took advantage of the widespread looting to tarnish the image of Iraqis and paper over the crimes of the occupation.

The statement also called for “exposing the malicious plans to destroy Iraq and entrenches the foothold of the occupation by setting government facilities ablaze and looting hospitals, universities, banks and museums in Iraq.”

It also warned of sectarian sedition in Iraq, asserting the territorial integrity of the country.

The statement urged keeping Iraq’s seat in the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and protecting the country’s oil sector.
