Some Iraqis are having their heads opened with drills, then their bodies are thrown in the streets, … This shows that the United States should stop these acts since it is the force that occupies...

Not participating in the previous elections was a mistake. By abiding to its promise not to attack the voting process, the resistance has proved that it is ready to lay down its arms if the...

Americans are more concerned about the sacred deadlines rather than the contents of the constitution.

The fraud has begun right from now. We reject this explanation and we will not recognize any referendum based on this explanation.

There is no need for a referendum this constitution is for the (Shiite) coalition and the Kurds only,

We cannot imagine that an Arab population forming more than 80 percent of Iraqi society will allow the article reading that Iraq is part of the Islamic world instead of mentioning that we are part...

The U.N. stand provokes our astonishment because they have not responded to our complaints, which we have submitted. This statement provokes anger and frustration.

They will surprise us in the final hour. We will reject it and the people will be angry, the street will be angry and as a result we will be back to square one.

I think if this constitution passes as it is, it will worsen everything in the country.

The aim of this move is to pass the constitution and impose it on everybody regardless of their opinions.

We want a constitution that the people will accept and have a greater possibility that the voters will say ‘yes’ to.

We are outside all of the negotiations these two days. They want to pass the constitution without us.

The fraud has begun right from now.

No one has the right to explain things they way he likes, … There should be one interpretation for the word ‘voter,’ or else we will appeal over the referendum and its results.

We were surprised with Abdul-Aziz al-Hakim’s declarations today. Time is running out and such declarations should be much more calm. We don’t have time for such maneuvers.

We are not planning to withdraw. We don’t care if it will be extended for a month. We just want a good draft.

The people were shocked to find out that their vote is worthless because of the major fraud that takes place in Iraq.

With this result, the Sunni Arabs will be able to defeat the constitution, if there is honesty and an international supervision on the process. I am sure if there is honesty, 95 percent of Sunni...

There is no transparency there … they want this constitution to pass despite the will of the people.

If they will issue a constitution without our agreement, we will hamper the political process and move to postpone the transitional government. That will mean another year without stability.

Unless there’s a balance between the three major sectors (of the population), the future of Iraq is going to be dark.

The Islamic party was participating alone in these negotiations and making its own decisions. This is strange because the Iraqi Islamic party does not represent all the Sunni Arabs but only a small percentage of...

The situation is getting worse, and people are losing hope. That despair stokes violence.

We want you to express your point of view but without violence.

This constitution is full of land mines that would explode on Iraqis. This constitution will divide the country.

The elections were faked. The Iraqi is devastated. He knows his vote is worthless.

Boycotting the referendum is a possible option … because we believe that participating in the voting might be a useless act.

We gave them our demands, but they did not make any progress,

They violated an agreement with us that they will not go alone to talk about the government.

(Elections) will bring different views together, build a bridge between the resistance and American forces. But to expect it will stop the insurgency? I don’t think so.

We are warning the Sunni community of acts of fraud, … If the results are tampered with, it might lead to civil war.

We don’t want to wage a war against anybody, but we say this draft has written in away that will divide and tear apart Iraq. This constitution was written in a hurry and also passed...

If this government is like the last one, then Iraq will break apart.

We strongly condemn the military operations and demand that they are halted immediately. We demand that the United Nations, the Arab League, and humanitarian organizations stop these massacres.

If they do not accept key amendments to the country’s new constitution, including the regions issue, then let them work alone and divide the country, as for us we do not accept this.

If the constitution is not changed, then we will try to bring it down either before the referendum through the law by filing a suit in international or local courts, if we can, challenging the...

We can not imagine that an Arab population forming more than 80 percent of the Iraqi society will allow the article reading that Iraq is part of the Islamic world instead of mentioning that we...

We are warning of acts of fraud. This might lead to civil disobedience.

It is a clear forgery.

I call on Iraqis to express their opinions in the referendum without using the means of violence.

The report is contradictory in certain sections. It says there were irregularities, but then says that (the Iraqi election) commission was not prepared for this kind of a job. … It calls for the annulment...

They’re trying to influence the voters’ decisions … and serve the interests of the (Shiite-led) United Iraqi Alliance.

I expect that the constitution would be finished before Monday. Negotiations are still under way and everybody is determined to finish it before the deadline.

This will make it impossible for residents of the Iraq’s few mostly Sunni provinces to bring down the constitution. The aim of this move is to pass the constitution and to impose it on everybody...
