The Iraqi Community Council for the North of England wishes to express
its most sincere and grave sympathy with the victims of the 7th of July
bombings, their families, and the people of London and condemn all
terrorist act perpetrated by those enemies of humanity. Those acts
perpetrated cannot be considered to represent any legitimate ideology or
faith.

The bombings were nothing but indiscriminate acts of murder, aimed not
only at their ill-fated victims, but also at the City of London as a
whole. The Iraqi Community Council categorically dismisses the claims
and motives of terrorists and urges the people of London and of Britain
to stand united against these attacks, regardless of their race,
political orientation, or faith. The breakdown of national unity, a
condition under which extremists are able to pursue their appalling and
unpatriotic goals, should not be allowed to extend any further.

Co-operation and communication between all communities throughout the
entire nation is what is needed now. We hope that the surviving victims
of the blasts make full recoveries, although the scars of such an event
shall be felt indefinitely. Following many others, we commend the rapid
restoration of transport services by the transport authorities, and the
excellent response of the London emergency services.

A vigil is being organised by the Iraqi Community Council which will be
held on Saturday 13th August, starting at 2.30pm until around 4.30pm and
will be held on Albert Square, Manchester (infront of Manchester Town
Hall). Every body is Welcome!

Long live the friendship between th e Iraqi people and the British
people!
