- O people of Iraq, O people of dissemblance, defiance, and wickedness! You have always raced to incite strifes, and resided in the harbors of aberrance, and diffused the customs of deviance and benightedness. By Allah, I shall peel you like a stick, and I shall strike you like flint, and I shall bind you like the leaves of acacia, and I shall beat you like wandering and drifting camels.
