The second anti-occupation conference in Iraq rejected on Saturday, May 7, any talks with the new government unless it clearly seeks a timetable for the withdrawal of the US-led occupation forces.
“We want an official and clear timetable for the withdrawal guaranteed by the United Nations and neutral international bodies,” said Harith Al-Dari, the Secretary General of the Association of Muslim Scholars (AMS) and a member of the conference’s secretariat-general.
