An Invitation to the Satellite Channels and Journalists to Cover the National Strike , Statement of Al-sayed Muqtada Al-Sadr 19-3-2016

In The Name Of God

I don't want to increase in the blame and wondering from lack of media coverage by Iraqi, Arabic and universal channels on the important event in this time -peaceful national strike- at doors of green zone to support Al-Abadi (prime minister) in his reforms.
Now, I offer an open invitation to cover this strike periodically and orderly and as befit to publish what happens truly and transparently and far from the distortion and falsification as some members who belong to the press and journalists did. Indeed, we call for the protection of journalists securely and professionally. I mean as we refuse any attack against them, also we refuse the distorting the facts which are done by them. Some channels used to distort the facts and last one is the channel which cut some words from speech of our spokesman. This actin offends to the reputation of press and journalists.
Roll up! O' voice of free Iraq and voice of free world cover this important event freely. We refuse any harassment either by governmental bodies or bodies belonged to us. It is enough the abandonment of people's voice. Peace to the people of peace.
