To the US "embassy" in Baghdad: release Hiba al-Shamaree
To the
commanders of the US occupation tyranny in Iraq:
You must release Dr. Hanan Ali Ahmed Al-Mashadani, who posts a blog
under the name of Hiba al-Shamaree. She was arrested in Baghdad on January 20.
Evidently her opinions displeased someone in your Green Zone political process.
Do not refer me to your puppets. Just tell them to do it.
She is an opthalmologist in Baghdad on a humanitarian mission under the auspices
of an Indian NGO called HMOK.
You have not liberated Iraq, you have destroyed it. Please do not attempt to
persuade me that you have any case against Dr. al-Mashadani. She is not the
alien presence in Iraq. You are. So let her go immediately and while you are at
it get out of Iraq.
You have disgraced my country. You do not represent patriotism toward, loyalty
to, or protection of the United States. All you are is a bunch of people with a
lot of money, a lot of armaments, a lot of soldiers and police and courts to
kill and repress anyone who displeases you. But the people of Iraq are more
powerful than you are. They have defeated you. Let that be a warning to you that
you cannot indefinitely try the patience of the people of the United States.
