The Iraqi National Accord (I.N.A.) was established
in 1990 to achieve a democratic pluralistic regime that respects human rights
and lives peacefully with its citizens, neighbors and the whole world. (I.N.A.)
advocates the removal of Saddam's regime.
We hope to achieve this by encouraging and
working with opposition elements (both military and civilian) within Iraq in
their efforts to bring about change. We also look to the future, promoting a
vision of genuinely democratic Iraq post Saddam which can take its rightful
place within the international community.
In the last two decades, Saddam, by every means
in his power, suppressed severely any attempt of free thinking or independent
political activity, whether it came from persons, organizations or even Ba'ath
party itself. He who ventured departing from the state direction or opposing the
regime policy, met death.
Some fortunate Iraqis escaped the terrorist
regime to live as refugees or residents in other countries. Supported by Iraqis
inside and outside Iraq, some of those fugitives, united by a common goal, that
is the removal of Saddam's regime, try to organize themselves in political
groups.
(I.N.A) came as a natural result of a long
political communication between some personalities of the same political opinion
who were subjected in the past to the physical and intellectual terrorism Saddam
inflicted on Iraqis.
(I.N.A) seeks to ensure the broadest framework
through which those personalities can work, so most members of (I.N.A) have
broad political and party experience and they held many official and
international offices.
(I.N.A) believes in a real democracy and looks
to an Iraqi society living peacefully within its geographical borders, a society
with all its religions, nationalities and confessions, live in an atmosphere of
fraternal friendship and sincerity.
(I.N.A) charter emphasizes the necessity of
establishing a constitutional democratic regime which respects human rights and
believes in pluralism, the reign of law, the unrestricted independence of
judicatory and the equal rights for all citizens.
(I.N.A) respects completely the democratic and
nationalist aspirations of the Kurds and supports the political program of
Kurdistan front. It will also work for passing necessary legislations ensuring
and respecting the cultural rights of Turkmen, Assyrian, and other minorities.
