I am confident that you brothers in parliament will champion the will of the people over that of the occupier.
The Iraqi people are suffering just as if they were still under Saddam.
I fear only God, all praises to Him.
Go forth from our holy land and go back to your families who are waiting for you impatiently, that you and we, as well, lead a peaceful life together.
Divisiveness is not good for the people.
Out of my desire to complete Iraq's independence and to finish the withdrawal of the occupation forces from our holy lands, I am obliged to halt military operations of the honest Iraqi resistance until the withdrawal of the occupation forces is complete.
