Sungguh diharapkan perdamaian di antara pemerintahan Interm Irak 
dan Pejuang Irak dapat terlaksana tanpa saling meneror. Pemerintahan 
Interm Irak sudah ingin menunjukkan tekad baik amnesti pada para 
pejuang Irak dan aspirasi Para pejuang Irak perlu didengar dgn hati 
nurani.

  Bila ada umat umat dari pejuang Irak meneror, sungguh diharapkan 
para pimpinan pejuang Irak perlu mencegah teman temannya meneror. 
Bila meneror dari pengadudombaan, perlu diwaspadai oleh Pemerintahan 
dan Pejuang Irak. Karena ini sebagai bentuk dapat memperpanjangkan 
konflik dan perang.

   Terbaik buat masyarakat Irak seluas luasnya merupakan hal yang 
tidak boleh diabaikan dan dihormati daripada kepentingan kelompok 
orang saja. Sebaiknya apakah perlu diperhatikan daripada melalui 
perlawanan, berilah tempat buat para pejuang utk sebagai pejabat 
DPR/MPR Irak sekaligus partai yang baik berwawasan kepentingan rakyat 
kebanyakan.

 Jangan biarkan Irak jatuh hanya gara gara pengadudombaan dan 
kebencian. Marilah Rakyat Irak bersama sama membangun Irak lebih 
baik. Sungguhnya mereka bakal dapat diperhitungkan di Akhirat untuk 
kepentingan seberapa besar pada Rakyat Irak dan solusi tanpa bentuk 
arrogant.


wassalam,

Iraq Leader Promises Insurgency Crackdown 

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Iraqi interim President Ghazi al-Yawer threatened 
Monday to use a "very sharp sword" to fight insurgents threatening 
the security of the country, a day after three U.S. soldiers died in 
attacks north of Baghdad. 

Also Monday, France and Iraq (news - web sites) restored diplomatic 
relations that were severed before the Gulf War (news - web sites) 13 
years ago. 

Al-Yawer spoke two weeks after the United States handed sovereignty 
over to an interim Iraqi government. The handover, however, has not 
quelled the violence that has wracked the country since the fall of 
Saddam Hussein (news - web sites)'s regime nearly 15 months ago. 

Foreign and local insurgents have launched numerous attacks in Iraq 
in an effort to force coalition forces to leave and to thwart the 
country's postwar reconstruction. The attacks have killed scores of 
U.S. troops and hundreds of Iraqi civilians. 

"Terrorism isn't just killing and blowing up bombs, whoever threatens 
the ordinary life of the people is a terrorist," al-Yawer told 
reporters. "We have a very sharp sword ready for anyone who threatens 
the security of this country." 

Al-Yawer, who was meeting with Defense Minister Hazem Shaalan and 
National Guard Brig. Gen. Muther al-Rashardi, said the roughly 
160,000 coalition forces led by the United States were required to 
stay here to fight the insurgents, but violent groups should not use 
this as an excuse to continue attacks. 

"Those who claim they are resisting the occupation, the occupation is 
over now," he said. "We want to tell anyone who wants to threaten the 
security of this country: 'Enough,' I say, 'Enough. Stop.'" 

Security officials also sought to reassure Iraqis they were trying to 
restore order. 

Al-Rashardi said the national guard has divided the capital, Baghdad, 
into eight sectors to make it easier to control. 

"We have very big plans to follow this up," Shaalan said. "We are 
ready to sacrifice ourselves for our people." 

Al-Yawer, a prominent Sunni whose position is largely ceremonial, 
said the government planned to announce an amnesty soon for some of 
the insurgents. 

Al-Yawer appealed to insurgents to accept the amnesty and lay down 
their weapons. 

"This is your last chance, otherwise there will be the sword," he 
said. 

Meanwhile, Iraq and France, which opposed the U.S.-led war that 
toppled Saddam, restored diplomatic relations that were severed 13 
years ago during the Gulf War. The countries plan to exchange 
ambassadors as soon as possible, the French Foreign Ministry said 
Monday. 

"The two governments are convinced this decision will contribute to 
closer ties between France and Iraq and will intensify exchanges to 
the greater benefit of the two countries," the Foreign Ministry said 
in a statement. 

The restoration of ties took effect Monday, according to Mohammed al-
Haj Mahmoud, undersecretary for legal affairs at the Iraqi Foreign 
Ministry. 

France has turned down American requests for military help in 
quelling the insurgency, but expressed willingness to help train 
Iraqi security forces. 

Violence continued across Iraq. 

Gunmen killed Abd el-Oun Hassan, the head of the Musayyib office of 
the Supreme Council of the Islamic Revolution in Iraq, one of the 
largest Shiite parties, in a drive-by shooting south of the capital 
Sunday night, police officials said Monday. 

Insurgents Sunday also killed three U.S. soldiers and an Iraqi 
civilian in separate attacks north of Baghdad. 

Also Sunday, insurgents fired mortar rounds at the Abu Ghraib prison, 
the center of a scandal involving alleged abuse of Iraqi detainees by 
U.S. guards. One person was injured. 

The attack was the sixth by insurgents on the facility since a mortar 
attack on in April killed 22 Iraqi detainees and wounded over 100, 
the military said. 

Iraqi insurgents who have threatened to kill a Filipino hostage gave 
the Philippines two more days to agree to withdraw all its troops 
from Iraq, officials in Manila said Monday. 

The Iraqi Islamic Army-Khaled bin Al-Waleed Corps said it would kill 
truck driver Angelo dela Cruz, 46, Sunday night if the government did 
not give in to its demand for an early withdrawal. But government 
officials said the group had extended the deadline until Tuesday, 
even though the Philippines said its 51 soldiers and police would 
leave Aug. 20 as scheduled. 

"This is a time when hope and optimism are particularly important to 
all of us," Labor Secretary Patricia Santo Tomas told ABS-CBN TV from 
Dubai, where she was accompanying dela Cruz's wife and brother en 
route to Amman, Jordan. 

Riot police in Manila broke up a demonstration Monday by hundreds of 
left-wing protesters demanding the withdrawal of the Philippine force 
here. 

A militant deadline for two other hostages � Bulgarian truck drivers 
held by a separate group demanding the release of all Iraqi 
detainees � expired Saturday morning. The militants had threatened to 
execute the Bulgarians if the U.S. military did not release all Iraqi 
detainees by the deadline. 

At least one Bulgarian diplomat traveled to Iraq to help win the 
release of the hostages, a diplomat familiar with the talks said 
while speaking on condition of anonymity. The diplomat's exact plans 
were not revealed.
