We do not kill an Iraqi.

The US-led forces have the money, weapons and huge numbers, but these things are not going to weaken our will because God is with us.

Our rejection of the occupier at heart is resistance.

Do not betray the people.

I will continue to defend Najaf as it is the holiest place. I will remain in the city until the last drop of my blood has been spilled.

If it does not serve the Iraqi people, there are only political means that must be followed to reform the government - a new government that we must give a chance to prove that it is there to serve the people.

I seek the spread of freedom and democracy in the way that satisfies God. They [Americans] have planned and paved the ways for a long time, but it is God who is the real planner - and the proof of this is the fall of the American twin towers [...] a miracle from God.
