Solidarity Message from Solidarité Irak –France

To the Conference of FWCUI in Basra

Dear comrades,

One year ago, we learned about the fight of the Union of unemployed and the Federation 

of workers councils and unions against US occupation and reactionary terrorism of baathism

 and political Islam. We immediately decided to support it and created a solidarity group in 

France, Solidarité Irak. Day after day, we translated your communiqués, organized support 

events and meetings, engaged all left organizations, unions, associations to support you as 

well. One year after, this support has grown and become more effective. We organized a 

support meeting to the Bassrah conference and invited Amjad al-Jahwary to explain the 

fight of the Union of unemployed and The Federation of workers councils and unions in 

Iraq.

The Bassrah conference is an important step in the building of Working-class movement,

 for its unity against all ethnics, religious, sexual divisions, for the right of workers and for 

equality between women and men. We, French activists of Solidarité Irak, fully support this

 conference and the building of worker councils and unions and send our salute to all our 

comrades in Iraq.
