Marje Sistani on 15 Shaban calls Iraqis to back govt

By: Ismail Zabeeh

HOLY CITY OF NAJAF, Iraq: Marking the holy festival of 15 Shaaban, Al-Marje Al-A'ala Ayatullah Sayed Ali Al-Husseini As-Sistani urged Iraqis to unite and to support their elected government in its struggle against violence.

“I repeat today that all Iraqis from all sects and ethnicities should be aware of the dangers threatening the future of Iraq,” he said in a statement released on the birthday of Imam Al-Asr Al-Mehdi (Peace be upon him).

He made the comments as the national health ministry announced more than 1,580 people were killed last month in Baghdad alone.

“Words fail to describe these heinous acts and their opposition to human and religious values,” Ayatullah As-Sistani said. “To find a way out of the crisis, all parties must decide to spare Iraqi blood... and to stop reciprocal violence in all its forms.”
