Accordingly, we call on the General Union of Iraqi Writers and Writers, and on all Iraqi writers and intellectuals, to condemn this crime explicitly and in a stated position, out of loyalty to the poet who loved Iraq and supported its writers. Condemning injustice is a moral duty that is not subject to the statute of limitations.
