Secretary General Shares the Iraqi Christians Their Grieve
Sayyed Ammar Al-Hakim, Secretary General of Al-Hakim Foundation, joined on 12/10/2010 the memorial on the occasion of
mourning the martyrs who lost their lives in the cowardly terrorist act which targeted the Church of (Lady of Deliverance) in Baghdad
on October 31, 2010.
His Eminence emphasized that his presence comes to deliver a clear message of solidarity and lining up the people of Iraq with all
religions and all nationalities and all their sects and orientations, in order to keep Iraq united towards the challenges and dangers
in the pursuit of criminals and abusers of the Iraqi people.
His Eminence said: “we stand today the stand of solidarity and sympathy with our people and dear ones of Christians in Iraq and
renew the support for their survival and strength because they are an essential part of this home.”
Sayyed Ammar Al-Hakim was one of the first Iraqi national figures who participated in the funeral ceremony of the innocent victims
from the Iraqi Christians who lost their lives in the terrorist attack at (Lady of Deliverance) Church.
His Eminence released the following statement of condemnation for this cowardly act:
In The Name Of God The Merciful, The Beneficent:
Criminal gangs committed on Sunday, October 31, 2010, an aggressive crime on one of the churches of our fellow Christians,
during their worship, and killed more than forty of them and wounded dozens as they have been victimized by brutal gangs. What
hurts the heart and the human conscience is the killing of innocent people in Iraq, including our fellow Christians by these criminal
gangs, which have been the cause of the devastation and destruction in Iraq seven years ago. Also, what hurts the heart is that
those crimes are committed by organizations that falsely claim their belonging to Islam and Islam is completely free of them. That
Islam is a religion of tolerance and coexistence, and rejects waste of lives and the killing of the souls unjustly and aggressively,
and what happened yesterday, is a heinous crime and is one of the clearest forms of injustice and aggression. Our Christian
Brothers have lived in Iraq for many centuries and were and still represent an important part of the builders of this country, and
participated in its family in good and bad times. They had not been subjected to persecution, murder and displacement, except by
the hands of these barbarism gangs that do not have any sanctity of blood rights. We strongly condemn this heinous crime, and
draw the attention of the government and its security services to put their priorities in protecting the lives of Iraqi citizens. We also
extend our warm condolences to His Eminence Cardinal Emmanuel Delly, and all Christian brothers in Iraq, especially with the
innocent victims, asking Almighty Allah to grant the
mercy of the victims, their families and inspire patience and fortitude and bless the wounded a speedy recovery.
