“In this day and age, when our youth, in the prime of life, without regard for their own lives, for their families, their children, or their wives, set out for the battlefronts, to fight the filthiest of the creations of Allah, they are fighting out of love for [Imam] Hussein. When they fight, they are killing the enemies of Hussein. The enemies of Hussein are the enemies of the Messenger of Allah. They are the enemies of humanity.”“Iraqi Shi’ite Militia Leader Qais Khazali: ‘Liberation of Mosul Will Be in Vengeance against the Slayers of Hussein,’” MEMRI TV, March 4, 2017, https://www.memri.org/tv/iraqi-shiite-militia-leader-qais-khazali-liberation-mosul-will-be-vengeance-against-slayers/transcript.
