Al-Walai, the Secretary-General of the Sayyid al-Shuhada Brigades in Iraq, reacted to the recent statements of Joe Biden, the President of the United States, regarding human losses in Iraq, emphasizing that this acknowledgment indicates the power and influence of the resistance groups in this country. He considered these statements a sign of America's weakness and inability against the will of the Iraqi people.

Power of Resistance Groups
Al-Walai referred to the military and political capabilities of the resistance groups and stated that despite external pressures, these groups have managed to emerge as an effective force at both the domestic and regional levels. He believes that this not only demonstrates the power of the resistance groups but also reflects the will and determination of the Iraqi people to stand against aggression.
Furthermore, Al-Walai referred to the historical background of wars and conflicts in Iraq and stated that the Iraqi people have always stood firm against challenges and have been able to achieve victory through unity and solidarity each time. He emphasized that the resistance groups, as part of this history, are currently seeking to realize the rights of the people and defend the territorial integrity of the country.
Consequences of America's Acknowledgments
According to Al-Walai, these acknowledgments could have significant consequences for America and the coalition forces present in Iraq. He added: "This issue could lead to increased international pressure on America and also strengthen the legitimacy of the resistance groups on a global scale." Additionally, these acknowledgments may provoke the Iraqi people further to continue their resistance against foreign forces.
In conclusion, Al-Walai expressed hope for justice for the victims of the Iraq war, noting that the resistance groups will continue their efforts for freedom and national sovereignty and will spare no effort in this path.
