Twilight News / The American General, Commander of the Joint Task Forces, Matthew McFarlane, congratulated the Iraqi people on the fifth anniversary of Iraq’s victory over ISIS, noting that “what remains today is the return of all displaced people to their homes and prevent the spread of (ISIS) ideologies.”
McFarlane said in a statement published by the U.S. Free website that Iraqi security forces had shown “courageous” heroism in countering the terrorist organization and made sacrifices to defend their country.
McFarlane, who took oversaw Operation Inherent Resolve to succeed Major General John Brennan, explained that the battle for Mosul, which was the capital of the so-called caliphate, is great and terrifying, with “women, children and the elderly not spared the brutality of ISIS, an enemy that has no atom of mercy and
The US military commander pointed out that with the support of the international coalition, the Iraqi security forces launched the operation to liberate Mosul and thus managed to retake it, “as this battle brought together all Iraqis to eliminate ISIS militarily and regionally.”
“This was a major victory and the beginning of a prosperous future for Iraq,” McFarlane said in a statement.
“What remains today is the return of all displaced people to their homes and the prevention of the spread of ISIS extremist and terrorist ideologies,” McFarlane stressed.
During its capture of Mosul, ISIS imposed strict laws that affected all aspects of life, and considered every opponent of those laws a “apostate.”
Those laws have prompted minorities, especially Christians who have lived in Mosul for more than 1,500 years, to flee the Sunni-majority city.
“More than a million Iraqis remain displaced across the country, and others are in need of some form of humanitarian assistance,” according to a previous report by the Norwegian Refugee Council, reported by AFP.
In December 2017, Iraq declared the defeat of extremists after more than three years of bloody fighting.
In 2014, ISIS took control of more than a third of Iraq and made Mosul the “capital” of the “caliphate” it declared after spreading to large swathes of Syria and Iraq.
For more than three years, Iraqi federal forces, Peshmerga, the Popular Mobilization Forces and U.S.-led international coalition aircraft have fought bloody battles to defeat IS operatives, and were already able to do so five years ago.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Mr. Muhammad Shayaa Al-Sudani, delivered a speech on the occasion, and the following are the most prominent of it:
🔷 Today we commemorate the fifth anniversary of the decisive victory over the remnants of terrorism and darkness, a victory that would not have been achieved had it not been for the hardness, patience and solidarity of the Iraqis.
🔷 Our armed forces achieved this victory in all its forms, from the army, the popular and tribal crowd, the counter-terrorism apparatus, the federal police, the rapid response in the Ministry of Interior, the Peshmerga forces, and other intelligence agencies and support forces.
🔷 In that epic, the words of the Supreme Religious Authority in Najaf, the light behind which the Iraqis walked, were the fatwas of the competent jihad, the point of initiation to liberate cities and districts, one after the other.
🔷 We are proud today of those who were on the battlefield carrying a weapon in one hand and another extending to save his family and people, just as we are proud of those who left us and rose as a martyr from the leaders of victory and the great victory, leaders, commanders, officers, ranks and affiliates. There is no victory except by remembering the martyrs of Iraq and the wounded of our armed forces.
🔷 We also remember the steadfastness of the displaced, and the torments of the forcibly displaced from their homes and the birthplace of their fathers and grandfathers, their homeland that they were known for, and that they knew for thousands of years.
🔷 And there is no victory except for the women of Iraq, and by recalling their honorable role in the liberation operations and supporting our fighting forces, I salute the women of Iraq, and the happy martyrs among them, on the anniversary of the great victory.
🔷 It is our right to remember the martyrs of the victimized victim, our youth in the Camp Speicher massacre, the unarmed innocents, the victims of hatred and cowardly murder. Just as we remember the heinous crime of the genocide of the Iraqi Yazidis, and the survivors of the Iraqi Turkmen and Shabak women, we also remember the sufferings of our people in the liberated areas, who suffered what they suffered.
🔷 Our national principles and faith rejecting terrorism and extremism made its demise inevitable and a consequence, so that Iraq would return to its thriving diversity, and so that the Iraqi society would enjoy its people and its cultural richness.
🔷 We still have a long work ahead of us to cut off all strife, and to bury the dreams of extremism and hate speech, and also a lot of work awaits us in reform, development and achieving a decent life.
🔷 The Iraqis who defeated terrorism are able to defeat corruption, which has become the number one enemy of the state and its entity.
🔷 I still remember the words of the supreme reference in Najaf, on the thirteenth of December 2019 (The battle of reform is tougher than the battle of terrorism, and the Iraqis are able to win it).
