Al-Amiri asks factions to drop the tense language

WHAT HAPPENED

Badr Organization's Al-Ghadeer TV published a signed statement and two pull-quotes from Hadi al-Amiri between 09:43 and 09:47 on 18 August 2026. He opened on the Quranic verse warning against fitna, called all parties to "the language of moderation and de-escalation," asked for the abandonment of tense and unjustified language in statements and media activity, and asked those handling the "confining weapons to the state" file to act with national responsibility and not hand external parties a pretext to intervene. The statement names no faction; the criticism is directed at unnamed "some statements."

    We call on all parties to adopt the language of moderation and de-escalation, to avoid tension in positions... and to reject everything that creates gaps and feeds disagreements

    ندعو الأطراف كافة الى التحلي بلغة الإعتدال والتهدئة، وتجنب الإحتقان في المواقف... ونبذ كل ما من شأنه أن يخلق الفجوات ويغذي الخلافات

  2. Al-Ghadeer TVBadr Organization — official owned media18 Aug, 12:46

    We hope for the abandonment of the tense and unjustified language in some statements, declarations and media activities, and the avoidance of misjudging the situation and poor accuracy in calculations

    نأمل التخلي عن اللغة المتشنجة وغير المبررة في بعض البيانات والتصريحات والفعاليات الإعلامية وتجنب سوء تقدير الموقف وضعف الدقة في الحسابات

    We call on those concerned with the file of "confining weapons to the state" to deal with it in a spirit of national responsibility and not to give any external parties an opportunity to seek pretexts to intervene in Iraqi affairs

    ندعو المعنيين بملف "حصر السلاح بيد الدولة" إلى التعامل معه بروح المسؤولية الوطنية وعدم منح الفرصة لأي أطراف خارجية للبحث عن ذرائع للتدخل في الشأن العراقي

WHY IT MATTERS

Badr's secretary-general publicly asking for restraint on the arms file separates his organisation's declared position from the retaliation register running on KSS-affiliated media the same morning, on the single question the Iraqi state is currently pressing.
